Architects, designers, managers and care home owners are invited to submit their innovative healthcare and retirement properties into the Vision Style Awards as it returns for another year.

Formerly known as the Hilden Style Awards, the brand new programme recognises spectacular, striking and surprising design in a range of hospitality and healthcare venues from across Europe. Entrants will be in the running to be crowned the winner of the ‘Inspiring Retirement Living’ category with a range of prizes on offer with the winner receiving a double-page spread in the next edition of their coveted Style Guide.

The Awards, now in its fifth year, returned in August after undergoing a complete transformation. Due to popular demand, a healthcare category has been added for the second year running.

Described as a ‘feel-good’ awards incentive, the Vision Style Awards provide truly free exposure for care homes and retirement villages who excel in their inspiring design choices.

Previous winners include Signature Senior Lifestyle at Bentley House in Hertford which appears in the current edition of the Style Guide.

Entries will be judged on innovative and unique style choices by a panel of judges comprising of hoteliers, interior designers and travel industry commentators.

Entry is now open on the Vision website (www.visionsupportservices.com/style-awards), closing on the 31st October. Finalists will be announced in November and winners will be announced publicly and via media in December.
