What ingredients make up the world’s best architecture? As you flip through the colorful pages, the breadth of the projects featured reveals that the word ‘best’ can mean many things when applied to our built environment. While aesthetics in architecture are undeniably important, this definitive compendium of 10th Annual A+Awards winners demonstrates there is a multitude of other factors that can help make architecture stand out, factors that stretch far beyond mere good looks.
Founded on the premise of democratizing architecture, the A+Awards is the industry’s largest and most international awards program and honors the best architecture, spaces, and products from across the globe. In its 10th season, the A+Awards received thousands of entries from nearly 100 countries, with a special emphasis on honoring projects that respond to imminent global challenges such as climate change, urbanization and migration, and rising inequity.
This year’s winners include an assortment of signature firms, such as Zaha Hadid Architects, Adjaye Associates and Sordo Madeleno. Many smaller firms and up-and-coming studios also provided award-winning projects that captivated the illustrious jury and public alike. Now their work is published internationally among some of the biggest names in the industry, foreshadowing the next generation of impactful design.
With projects ranging from rural community centers to national transportation infrastructure, this year’s winners demonstrate the extraordinary impact of architecture at both local and global scales, highlighting works that act as new models for communities and cities worldwide.
