Healthcare Design has extended the deadline for nominations for the 2026 HCD 10 awards to Friday, Feb. 20.

The HCD 10 awards shine a spotlight on industry members who are advancing the field of healthcare design. The annual program honors established professionals across 10 categories: architect, interior designer, facility manager, owner/provider, clinician, educator, researcher, building professional, team MVP, and outstanding organization.

Submissions must detail the nominee’s meaningful contributions to the healthcare design sector within the past 12 months (January 2025 to January 2026).
