Presented by British Academy of Film and Television Arts
Location United Kingdom
Currently held by Shona Heath, James Price and Zsuzsa Mihalek for Poor Things (2023)

Best Production Design is a British Academy Film Award presented annually by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) to recognize a designer who has delivered outstanding production design in a film.

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), is a British organisation that hosts annual awards shows for film, television, children's film and television, and interactive media. Since 1964, selected production designers (or art directors or set decorators) have been awarded with the BAFTA award for Best Production Design at an annual ceremony. The award was formerly known as Best Art Direction (1964–1975).

In the following lists, the titles and names in bold with a gold background are the winners and recipients respectively; those not in bold are the nominees. The years given are those in which the films under consideration were released, not the year of the ceremony, which always takes place the following year.
