Wood Worth Celebrating
For more than five decades, the Wood Awards have championed the very best architecture, furniture and product design in wood. Founded in 1971, the UK's premier competition celebrates projects that demonstrate exceptional craftsmanship, innovation and sustainability, while showcasing timber's enduring relevance as one of the world's most versatile and renewable building materials. From beautifully crafted furniture and sculptural objects to nationally significant buildings, the awards recognise excellence across every scale of design.
At Material Matters London, the Wood Awards will present its 2026 exhibition, bringing together shortlisted Furniture & Objects alongside outstanding buildings and structures from across the UK. Together, they reveal the breadth of contemporary timber design, highlighting how architects, designers and makers are embracing homegrown wood, low-carbon construction, digital fabrication and traditional craftsmanship to create thoughtful, beautiful and enduring places and products. It's a compelling snapshot of the creative potential of wood and the designers shaping its future.
