The judges for the Malaysian leg of this competition comprised industry professionals including chief judge for the Interior Design category Anura Hashim and Ar. Jasmeet Singh for the Architecture category. The panel of judges also include representatives from the Real Estate and Housing Developers' Association (REHDA), Malaysian Institute of Interior Designers (MIID) and the Malaysia Green Building Confederation (MGBC).
