World Architecture Festival
The World Architecture Festival (WAF) is calling for award entries from architects in Australia and New Zealand with a cut-off date of 19th May, 2016.
Last year, Australian projects were shortlisted for more WAF awards than those from any other country, and went on to win three categories: Health category; Mixed-Use development of the year; and the award for best competition.
Widely regarded as the Oscars of the architecture world, not only does WAF provide the chance to win a global architectural accolade, but the festival also opens the door to international media coverage, peer and client recognition, and the potential for exciting new commissions all over the world.
Commenting on this year’s awards, WAF program director Paul Finch said:
“Australian architects have been prominent at WAF both in terms of delegates, entries and category winners, and despite the move from Singapore to Berlin, we anticipate continuing interest from a country whose architectural standards have strengthened significantly over the last decade.”
Shortlisted nominees will present their projects live to an international jury to compete for the ultimate accolades of World Building of the Year and Future Project of the Year 2016, which have the power to transform careers, promoting your work to a global audience.
