The Aga Khan Award for Architecture is given every three years to projects that set new standards of excellence in architecture, planning practices, historic preservation and landscape architecture. Through its efforts, the Award seeks to identify and encourage building concepts that successfully address the needs and aspirations of societies across the world, in which Muslims have a significant presence.

 

Award for Architecture

The Award seeks nominations that represent the broadest possible range of architectural interventions, but for the 15th cycle (2020-2022), it encourages the submission of projects in rural landscapes, urban peripheries and those that deal with public space at all scales.

 

To be eligible for consideration in the 2022 Award cycle, projects must be completed between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2020 and should have been in use for at least one full year.
