maltatoday | SUNDAY • 5 MARCH 2023 10 COMMERICAL Make your vote count: showcasing Malta's best architecture and design projects ARCHITECTURE and design are - and always have been - a touchy topic. Whether you carry a passion for the subject or are uninterested - you certainly have a feel for what you like and dislike - whether it's modern, contemporary, mini- malist, industrial, traditional, or transitional. The Malta Architecture and Spatial Planning (MASP) Awards allow you to have your say and cast your vote for the projects you think deserve recognition in this year's edition. You have until 12 March 2023 to make sure your vote counts. The online process is simple – just visit: www.maspawards.com/ public-voting/ This MASP Awards, a Planning Authority initiative, falls under the Patronage of the President of Malta, is dedicated to celebrating and honouring architecture and design firms that are at the fore- front of inspirational and innova- tive projects. This year, the Authority re- ceived over 100 entries spread over 12 categories from well-es- tablished architectural and de- sign firms and the upcoming generation of Perit and interior designers. Your opinion counts. Not only is the voting period a way for you to enjoy a great deal of amazing lo- cal architecture and design work, but you have a say as to which architectural firm, design studio, or architecture student will take home the 'Public Vote Award'. The PA is inviting you to see all these projects with fresh eyes and an open mind. It does not mat- ter who designed them or where they are located. Ask yourself: Does this project inspire me? Does it add quality value to its surrounding environ- ment? If so, vote for it so that we can showcase Malta's best architec- ture and design projects for 2022, created by gifted architects and designers. The project that receives the highest number of votes will be awarded the Public Vote honour. The public vote is separate from the main MASP Awards 2022 judging process, in which pro- fessional juwdges and technical experts assess entries. The award ceremony will be held in April.
