World Building of the Year 2013 – Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki

WAF, returning for its seventh successive year, will again be taking place at the Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore from 1 to 3 October, 2014. The WAF awards sit at the heart of the festival, and will see practices from around the world compete across 28 individual award categories for global recognition, competing across three category groups of completed buildings, landscape projects and future projects.

Architects of every shortlisted project are invited to attend the festival to give a live presentation to a panel of judges, asserting their case for why their project should win. The winners of each category are put forward to compete for the coveted World Building of the Year award, presided over by the festival’s ‘super-jury’, with the presentation of the award being the culmination of WAF 2014.
