More Time to Shine: 8th Annual A+Awards Deadline Extended!


It goes without saying that 2020 has been a highly unusual year so far, with the Coronavirus outbreak bringing with it unprecedented challenges for architects, designers and others throughout the AEC industry.

As the 8th Annual A+Awards program has unfolded in parallel with world events, we’ve been receiving hundreds of messages from firms telling us of their desire to participate, but also struggling to do so on time given these trying times. This is completely understandable, and we hugely appreciate your candid communication. We’ve listened to these concerns, and are making it a priority to accommodate as many firms as possible during this unique edition of the A+Awards program.

For this reason, we’re happy to announce an an extension to the entry period for submissions until May 3rd, 2020 at Midnight.

Enter the 8th Annual A+Awards

We truly believe in the power of great design to uplift the spirits of people through the architecture community and beyond. Since its inception, the A+Awards has provided a way for talented design professionals to showcase their creativity and innovation around the globe, regardless of firm size, location or project specialty. That’s why we are determined to give all architects, designers and manufacturers the additional time they need to submit their best work this year.

With a lack of certainty around projects moving forward, we appreciate that many architects might be hesitant to consider awards programs in their current budget. That said, it’s worth considering the year-round benefits that participation in the A+Awards can bring, which promise to extend far beyond the timeline of this crisis.

The fully-online A+Awards program provides a platform for architects to market themselves internationally, something that could prove particularly valuable at a time when there are no physical events such as expos, conventions and conferences. Victorious firms can expect year-round exposure, with their work celebrated in the A+Awards Winners’ Gallery, Architizer’s 1.5M-strong Instagram channel and other social media. Winning architecture firms will also have their projects published in the next edition of Phaidon’s international publication “The World’s Best Architecture.“

A+Award-winning architecture firms will also earn themselves a spot in next year’s A+List, the definitive directory of the world’s most innovative architecture firms. Check out this year’s inaugural edition: 137 Architecture and Design Firms to Watch in 2020. If you need further convincing, check out our list of 10 Reasons You Should Enter the 8th Annual A+Awards.

We hope to see your firm light up this year’s A+Awards, and we’re aiming to step up our celebration of hard-working architects throughout this surreal period. If you have any questions at all about the program, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at awards@architizer.com.

Good luck from all of us at Architizer!

Wood Urbanism

Wood Urbanism: From the Molecular to the Territorial Daniel Ibañez, Jane Hutton, Kiel Moe (Editors) Actar Publishers , November 2019 Hardcover | 8 x 10-1/4 inches | 488 pages | English | ISBN: 978-1945150814 | $54.95 PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION : Wood holds unique and timely lessons for urbanization, yet it remains inadequately characterized in architecture, landscape architecture, and urbanism. From under-considered thermal properties to emerging manufacturing possibilities, from changing forestry regimes to larger carbon cycle dynamics, Wood Urbanism explores the unique material and scalar properties of wood, presenting it as a critical material for design today. It brings into conversation scholars and practitioners who focus on wood from a range of perspectives: from the working forest to the mid-rise building to the basic cell. Drawing from the inherent intelligence and depth of multiple disciplines, this book offers a transcalar perspective on the role of wood in cont...

Building a gentrification early warning system with big data

Resim
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? [...] neighborhood advocates would have the opportunity to implement policies ranging from reserving affordable housing units to educating residents of their renting rights to helping small businesses negotiate long-term lease extensions. In his NPR piece, astrophysics professor Adam Frank explains how various big data sets, like housing prices, eviction records, census data, or social media usage, can be utilized for "predictive analytics" to detect early onsets of gentrification for specific neighborhoods at an increasingly high resolution — and what significant perils come with it.
