Accommodation New Zealand introduces
More than 40 Australian projects have been shortlisted in the 2024 World Architecture Festival (WAF) Awards.
In 2024, almost 500 projects from 71 countries have made the selection, with Australia among the top five countries with the most shortlisted projects, along with China, the United Kingdom, India and Singapore.
"Another terrific set of entries made shortlisting projects a tough process. Once again, the range of geographies represented was wide and we look forward to seeing architects across the world at this year's Festival," said WAF program director Paul Finch.
Shortlisted entrants will present to juries at the World Architecture Festival, to be held at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore from 6 to 8 November, before winners of the 33 categories will be announced. Category winners will be eligible for the World Building of the Year, World Landscape of the Year, and Future Project of the Year Awards.
The awards will be accompanied by a conference program themed "Tomorrow," which will explore the directions in which architecture is taking in the 21st century.
