SIA Winning Design Philosophies and Concepts

Members

During our SIA Annual Dinner two months ago, we announced the winners for our 18th SIA Architectural Awards, including 15 Honourable Mentions, 6 Design awards, and conferring one project as the prestigious “Building Of The Year”.

The 2019 Architectural Design Award received a total of 117 entries across the 6 main categories (and respective sub-categories). From minimalist designs to bold concepts, incorporating functionality into aesthetics, our judges were awed by the level of entries from our members.

Following the announcement and celebration of our award winners, SIA organized a 4-series seminar featuring the sharing of the design philosophies and concept by the winning designs of the 18th SIA Architectural Design Awards 2019.

Here’s a recap of the 4 sessions held over the past eight weeks!
