American Standard challenges young designers to create bathrooms of the future that addresses our evolving needs.
LIXIL global power brand, American Standard, is proud to launch the fourth edition of the American Standard Design Award (ASDA) 2026.
ASDA is a bathroom space design competition for young designers in Asia-Pacific (APAC) to showcase their creativity and put their theoretical knowledge into practice.
This year marks the 150th anniversary of American Standard, a brand that has been designing products that are inspired by life – transforming everyday routines into meaningful experiences. To celebrate this special milestone, ASDA 2026 invites future designers to embrace this legacy by showing us how residential bathrooms of the future can address our evolving needs under the theme of “Inspiring Everyday Living“. The bathroom is a place where families bond, individuals find solace, and the most modest and compact spaces become the backdrop for unforgettable moments.
“Celebrating 150 years of purposeful innovation inspired by life at American Standard, we are proud to launch the fourth edition of the ASDA Bathroom Design Competition. With a legacy built on inviting and dependable design with pioneering technology, the brand continues to champion solutions that enrich daily life. This year’s theme, ‘Inspiring Everyday Living,’ invites aspiring designers to reflect on how the bathroom can address our evolving needs and become a meaningful extension of how we live, connect and feel,” said Antoine Besseyre des Horts, Leader, LIXIL Global Design, Asia.
Last year’s competition drew nearly 3,500 registrations and over 1,000 submissions from nine countries.
ASDA 2026 is open to full-time undergraduate students studying architecture or interior design in Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.
Registration for ASDA is free and entry submission deadline on 4 January 2026. A panel of architecture and design luminaries will judge all the entries to announce national winners in April 2026. These winners will advance to compete for the APAC Grand Prize in May 2026.
The top three winners at the national level stand to win cash prizes between USD 1,000 to USD 2,000 and the APAC Grand Prize Winner will walk away with an additional USD 3,000 along with a chance to attend a Masterclass by LIXIL Design Leaders.
