Welcome to the Sheffield Design Awards

Biennial awards celebrating the best Architecture and Public Art in Sheffield and South Yorkshire

With great sadness, we announce the death of Sheffield Design Awards trustee, Dr Jim Monach.

Jim had been the only trustee to have been involved with the awards since their inception in 2008, and was instrumental in establishing the SDA in its current form as a registered charity. He was passionate about architecture and art, and the power of good design to enhance civic life in the city.

Jim was involved in many community groups and he will be sorely missed.

The Sheffield Design Awards for Public Art celebrates artworks that make a substantial contribution to the city's public realm.

The Sheffield Design Awards celebrate excellence in architecture and the built environment across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.
