HBA won in the following categories:

“HBA could not be more pleased by this recognition,” said Ian Carr, Principal at HBA Singapore who attended the event with co-Principal Connie Puar. “We have been privileged to work with several of the world’s most extraordinary hospitality brands, and to be honored this way by our peers is a compliment nearly equal to that of the trust of our clients.”
Connie Puar sees significance in the variety of the award-winning designs. “These three properties make wildly different design statements. Taken together, they give a sense of the unique ability HBA has to bring innovation to any project, anywhere” Puar said. “We draw on the talents of literally hundreds of gifted designers to develop brand-defining interiors.”
