The Asia Architecture Design Awards recognise excellence across architecture, interior design and product design, celebrating practices and projects that are shaping the future of Asia’s built environment. This year’s winners were honoured during the 2026 AADA Winner’s Night, held under the theme Influential Asia<\/i> in Vietnam’s Dragon Pearl Cave, where Dewan’s awards were accepted by Mohammed Adib, Chief Design Officer, and Annie Nguyen, Business Development Executive.<\/p>\n

Ammar Al Assam<\/b>, Chief Executive Officer of Dewan Architects + Engineers, said:<\/p>\n

“Being recognised with five awards at AADA is a proud achievement for our teams and our clients. To be named Asia’s Best Firm in Architecture Design and Asia’s Best Firm in Hospitality Architecture Design is particularly meaningful because it reflects the strength of our people, the trust of our clients and the quality of our partnerships across the region.”<\/p>\n

Mohammed Adib<\/b>, Chief Design Officer at Dewan Architects + Engineers, added:<\/p>\n

“Every project begins with understanding the place, the people and the aspirations behind it. Whether designing a hospitality destination or a residential community, our ambition is always to create architecture that feels authentic, enduring and memorable. It is rewarding to see that approach recognised on a regional stage.”<\/p>\n

The AADA awards continue a successful year for Dewan in Vietnam, where the practice also received two Gold Awards at the 2026 VMARK Vietnam Design Awards for TUI Blue Han River and Maia Ho Tram, a wellness-led hospitality and residential resort on Vietnam’s southern coastline.<\/p>\n

Building on this momentum, Dewan<\/a> continues to expand its portfolio across Southeast Asia, delivering a diverse range of master planning, hospitality, residential and mixed-use developments. Supported by its established office in Ho Chi Minh City, Dewan combines international design expertise with local knowledge to create projects that respond to the unique character and aspirations of each market.<\/p>\n
