The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies have selected over 110 new buildings, commercial and institutional developments, landscape architecture, and urban planning projects from 36 nations for The International Architecture Awards for 2014. Hundreds of submissions were received for this year’s annual Global Awards Program from architecture firms from across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Australia, and the Americas.
The program honuors new skyscrapers, commercial buildings, urban plans, private residences, and real estate projects that achieve a high standard of excellence in design, construction, planning, and sustainability and promote the best practice in all types of real estate development for the private and public sectors, including new skyscrapers, high rises, corporate and institutional buildings, commercial projects, city planning, restorations and adaptive reuse, religious and civic buildings, and interiors.
“From an impressive and visionary array of new submissions, the New York Jury selected over 100 outstanding projects, each of which positively impacts its larger community — sometimes modestly, but most often massively,” states Christian Narkiewicz-Laine, president, The Chicago Athenaeum. “The finalists span the globe, from South America to Asia, from North America to Europe, and we are particularly happy to share that diversity. All projects exhibit innovation in design, acute sensitivity to the environment, sustainability, adaptability to their surroundings, and provision of enjoyment to their many users. In one way or another, each finalist wowed the jury, which will make selection of the winners a real challenge.”
This year’s selected buildings were from 36 nations including: Antartica, Austria, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Georgia, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Maldives, Mexico, New Zealand, People’s Republic of China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, The Netherlands, Turkey, Vietnam, and United Arab Emirites, The United States.
This elite group of buildings and urban planning projects selected by the jury will be premiered at the Istanbul Design Biennial at the UCTEA Chamber of Architects of Turkey Istanbul Metropolitan Branch Kemankes Caddesi No: 31, Karakoy-Beyoglu, 34425 Istanbul, Turkey opening October 10 and continuing through October 25, 2014.
