The AR Emerging Awards have awarded the most promising young practices from around the world. Previous versions of this award confirms it: Sou Fujimoto, Miro Rivera, Plot (BIG), Pezo von Elrrichshausen and more, as you can see on our coverage last year.
These year, 4 projects were awarded:
- Bridge School, Xiashi, China by Li Xiaodong Atelier
- Knocktopher Friary, Knocktopher, Ireland by ODOS Architects (see more projects from ODOS Architects on ArchDaily)
- Curtain Door, Surat, India by Matharoo Associates
- Sports Research Centre, Guijo de Granadilla, Spain by Jose Maria Sanchez Garcia
The selection this year was very good… and it even included a door.
As for my favorite, I still can’t decide between the school and the sports center. Both show a new arrangement of the program, and affect the landscape in different scales.
Which one is your favorite, and why?
