Four projects shortlisted for 2017 Moriyama RAIC Prize


It's down to the final four for the 2017 Moriyama RAIC Prize. Established in 2014 by notable Canadian architect Raymond Moriyama along with the RAIC and the RAIC Foundation, the CAD$100,000 prize celebrates a single architectural project that is “transformative within its social context” and deemed exemplary of positively impactful and inclusive design.



“The Prize is aimed at encouraging architects to be service-oriented rather than just focusing on producing something that looks good in magazines,” says Raymond Moriyama. “It’s to serve the community and humanity.” Back in 2014, Li Xiaodong won the inaugural prize.

Here's a glimpse of the 2017 shortlist:
