World Architecture Festival

The World Architecture Festival (WAF) is an annual celebration that highlights architectural excellence from around the globe. Since its inaugural event in Barcelona in 2008, the festival has visited various cities, including Singapore, Berlin, and Amsterdam.

This prestigious event holds significant prominence in the architecture world. Architects who make the shortlist have the opportunity to present their projects to a panel of esteemed judges, all competing for the coveted title of World Building of the Year.

The festival's scope extends beyond completed buildings, encompassing a wide range of categories. From future projects and interiors to structural design and more, there is a category for every facet of architectural excellence. Each year, winners are announced across these various categories, culminating in the prestigious World Building of the Year award.

Running concurrently with WAF is the INSIDE Festival, which focuses on interior architecture and design, enriching the event with an additional layer of specialization.

Over the years, WAF has recognized some truly remarkable projects and architects. The festival showcases a diverse array of work from across the globe, emphasizing innovation, creativity, and sustainability in architecture. It is no wonder the event has grown in popularity, attracting architects, designers, and industry professionals from far and wide.
