The world's first ever interior design awards center around the concept of "Luxury Stone". The Luxury Stone Awards explore top-tier design works associated with "contemporary," "luxury," "aesthetics," and "natural stones." The term "luxury stone" does not necessarily point out a specific style. Through diverse design minds, realizing humanity's desire for imagination of beauty. Luxury stone flows through the details of everyday life, creating a unique natural luxury.

As one of the world's oldest building materials, stone has never disappeared from human living spaces. In recent years, the international trend of "luxury stone" has risen, transforming stone from a mere component of buildings to objects of admiration and collection. Taiwan's society, known for its diverse, inclusive, and creative cultural characteristics, believes that amidst the clash of different styles and thoughts, aesthetics can be enriched in the presentation of life.

The inaugural panel of judges brings together elite figures from the aesthetic industries, including fashion, art, media, and more. The expectation is to select representative interior design works that showcase the infinite possibilities of stone in space. We aim to present a contemporary Taiwanese luxury aesthetic and establish an internationally renowned collection of works.
