AWARDS & ACCOLADES​

TRENZSEATER Interiors has received significant international recognition across several prestigious platforms. Ben Lewis has been a finalist in the Andrew Martin Interior Design Review in London for consecutive years and, for the seventh year running, a finalist in the SBID (Society of British International Design) Awards — winning the “Interior Scheme Australasia” category in 2024. He has also been shortlisted for nine consecutive years in London’s Design et al International Design & Architecture Awards, which celebrate global excellence in interior and architectural design. In 2019, Ben won the “Global Interior Design Scheme” category — a defining moment that placed TRENZSEATER firmly on the international stage as a leading name in refined, luxury interiors.

 

Additionally, Ben has earned five Honourable Mentions in the esteemed International Design Awards (IDA) in Los Angeles. He is honoured to have contributed to the design of some of New Zealand’s finest residential properties — projects that have garnered international attention and led to his work being featured, by invitation, in The World’s Leading Design Names from 2018 through 2024.
