Video: Enter the 8th Annual A+Awards and Show Us the Future of Architecture


The 8th Annual A+Awards are fully underway, with the final entry deadline of March 27th quickly approaching. With a new, more focused theme entitled “The Future of Architecture”, this year’s competition is dedicated to designers working to tackle the most pressing issues facing architecture today.

Register for the A+Awards

Big challenges breed big innovations, which is exactly what this year’s A+Awards seeks to showcase. The video below was produced to give you a better understanding of what the 2020 A+Awards is looking for.

This year’s competition is a huge opportunity for architects and designers to demonstrate new, exciting and innovative work that breaks from the traditional mold. Each of the projects featured in the video are winners from the 2019 A+Awards. Though diverse in their form, function and design intent, they all present refreshed ways of approaching architecture.

A+Award winning projects are chosen based on not only their beauty and quality of design, but by the impact they have on the people that inhabit them. If this sounds like one of your projects, this is your chance to give your work the spotlight, putting it forward for consideration in front of our stellar jury of creative thought leaders. So don’t hesitate: Register and prepare your entry for submission by March 27th, 2020 to be in the running.

Building a gentrification early warning system with big data

But what if there were a way to see gentrification long before the coffee shops, condos and Whole Foods appear? What if city planners and neighborhoods had an early warning system that could sniff out the changes just as they begin?
