A panel of professional and award-winning ASID designers and board members, as well as editors from 2022 media sponsor, Furniture, Lighting and Décor, will adjudicate.

The 2021 ANDYZ winners were: Marcio Decker of Aspen Leaf Interiors for Best Bathroom Design and Best Custom Product; Stacey Jardine of Design West Architects for Best Commercial Design; Elena Solodovnikova of ML Decor for Best Hospitality Design; Dezirae Janowicz of Maverick Design + Wedgewood Homes for Best Individual Residential Design; Kristin Calderon of The Idea Room for Best Kitchen Design; Yanina & Ryan Allord of RADstudio for Best Multiple Residential Design; Donna Moss of Donna Moss Designs and Kimberly Joi McDonald of Designing JOI both for Best Outdoor Design; Lauren O’Conner of Sanctuary Design for Best Showroom Design; and Alex Tsung, Fresno State University student, for Best Student Design.
