Satoshi Konagai, Leader, LIXIL Water Technology, Asia Pacific, expressed, "LIXIL is honored to be a partner and headline sponsor for the fourth consecutive year of the International Property Awards. Our partnership continues to beneficially highlight the outstanding work and talent of the best developers, architects and designers across the Asia Pacific. Our deepest congratulations go out to all the winners on their well-deserved success. As the region pivots to a post-pandemic world, consumers are increasingly spending more time in their homes and the bathroom has become a private retreat from the outside world. As consumers take better care of their health and wellbeing the bathroom is no longer a space purely dedicated to the everyday function of hygiene. The region's property industry will need to address this macro trend and the additional challenge to reimagine and optimize multi-functional spaces from existing rooms. In all these areas, LIXIL is working closely with the industry and greater community to create and introduce innovative and pioneering products that address consumer needs."

Adele Tao, Leader, LIXIL Water Technology, Greater China, added, "We celebrate alongside the IPA winners as they spur the developer, designer and architect community to strive for excellence in their work to serve consumers. The global recognition and increased industry awareness around the IPA benefits past and present winners, as business partners and consumers can readily identify and work with the industry's best. LIXIL is pleased to reaffirm our support of the IPA with the signing of a new three-year sponsorship, and continue uplifting the architecture, interior design, real estate and property development sectors in the region. We look forward to working closely with all our partners in delivering products and solutions of global excellence across our portfolio of brands to make better homes a reality for everyone, everywhere"

Patrick Speck, Leader, LIXIL Global Design, EMENA, commented "Partnering with property industry leaders is a consumer-centric thinking multiplier for LIXIL's portfolio of brands and product design. By working together, it brings LIXIL and our partners closer to consumers, the cultures and communities that we serve. For LIXIL's global design team, we combine this pooled knowledge with our own deep, thorough consumer research to create relevant, purpose-driven products and solutions that solve real-life challenges and add tangible value to consumers and the property industry."
