Woods Bagot Principal Christopher Lye will join the expert panel for the 2026 World Interiors News (WIN) Awards, the global programme recognising excellence across the interior design industry.

Held annually, the WIN Awards recognise projects that demonstrate innovation, collaboration and design impact across a wide range of sectors, providing an international platform for ideas that shape contemporary interior environments. The programme is judged by leading industry professionals, selected for their expertise, experience and integrity.

Lye brings over 20 years of experience across the United Kingdom, Hong Kong and Mainland China. His work spans retail and corporate commercial projects, with a particular focus on large-scale retail-led and mixed-use developments. Working closely with developers, he has helped deliver environments that bring brand, user experience and commercial performance together.

His portfolio includes award-winning projects such as Suzhou Yanlord Cangjie, Hazens ARK Center, Shenzhen Yanlord Dream Center, Ningbo Unipark, Haikou Jiangdong Tiandi Mixed Use, Wuhan Liantou Huashanhe Urban Complex and Nanjing YiCheng West Wuhuali Retail Street – work that is culturally grounded and commercially relevant in equal measure.
