Introduction
The SIA Architectural Design Awards series is the most prestigious award conferred by the Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) to promote and encourage distinction in architectural design.
SIA hopes to spur Members to continually achieve greater heights, leading to the vision of Singapore architecture and architects being acknowledged as world-class standards. As such, this edition features a balance of distinguished local and international jurors.
The Awards recognises the achievements of SIA Members in their pursuit of architectural excellence and motivates architects to push the boundaries with innovative solutions. The Awards also aims to heighten the appreciation and patronage of good architectural design from both the architectural fraternity as well as the general public.
This year, 1 new category is introduced, namely E8 Social / Humanitarian Architecture. This category aims to acknowledge members, who use their professional competencies to contribute back to society. We honour these architects who are able tackle social issues, tight budgets, the lack of resources and bridge cultural gaps to achieve design excellence.
The Institute invites all eligible members (please see Section 3 below for eligibility) to participate in the 19th SIA Architectural Design Awards 2020.
