House and Garden | 14.10.2026 17:37
Influence in design extends far beyond a social media following. It can shape how we experience spaces, challenge established ideas and inspire new ways of thinking about the places we live. For Steyn City, sponsor of the Influencer of the Year category at the 2026 House & Garden Designer of the Year Awards, influence is closely tied to its own approach to creating people-centred urban environments. As the awards come to Johannesburg for the first time, Steyn City reflects on the value of meaningful influence, the importance of celebrating South African design talent and the ideas it hopes will shape the future of the industry.
