Architizer\u2019s A+Awards, the world\u2019s largest architectural awards program, has become one of the most significant platforms for Chinese architecture firms to gain recognition within their country and increase their visibility around the world. The iconic program is now in its 10th anniversary season, with jurors reviewing submissions that will reveal the next creative forces emerging from across the country. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Western perception that China is some kind of \u2018sleeping giant\u2019 when it comes to architectural design has long since fallen away, with headline-grabbing projects on an extraordinary scale rising in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and beyond. But it\u2019s also notable that the types of projects receiving recognition are changing. A decade ago, China\u2019s megatall commercial skyscrapers dominated coverage in architectural media, but today, cleverly crafted cultural, institutional and residential projects are now catching the eye of a global audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

For evidence, one need look no further than last season\u2019s A+Awards, which saw no fewer than 22 different Chinese architecture and design firms<\/a> receive prestigious accolades for their work. The rising prominence of the A+Awards in China has led Architizer to make the program more accessible to Chinese-speaking firms this season, with the addition of in-built translation on the submission site (simply click the \u2018flag\u2019 icon in the top right corner of the site<\/a> to change languages).<\/p>\n

So, how has the architectural profession evolved in China and made it one of the world\u2019s top countries for A+Awards recipients? \u201cThe increased arrival of domestic architectural projects [in the A+Awards] reflects that architecture’s value is weaving into the development of public spaces and social environment in China,\u201d said architectural designer Dylon Yang in conversation with the <\/span>Global Times<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a progress that not only shows that we embrace international design aesthetics, but also a sign of a developed mentality \u2014 being able to see the difference between ‘buildings’ and ‘building designs’\u2026 designed architecture serves not only as shelter, but carries human responsibilities, preserves culture and community, strives for environmental sustainability, and so forth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This deep understanding of context \u2014 both social and environmental \u2014 can be seen in the work of many innovative Chinese firms, large and small. And, while some of last season\u2019s winning firms are already very well known \u2014 <\/span>MAD Architects<\/a>, for example, took home multiple A+Awards \u2014 others have used their A+Awards success as a launching pad for major recognition and a greater standing among their competitors.<\/span>Firms like Studio Zhu Pei<\/a> \u2014 the architects behind the stunning Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum<\/a> \u2014 and META-Project<\/a>, which produced the tactile HeyTown Art Center<\/a> in Beijing, are no strangers to success, but last season\u2019s A+Awards saw their work thrown into the global spotlight. These projects are now held up as a creative benchmark \u2014 not just for other Chinese cultural centers, but for galleries and museums around the globe.<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps the biggest factor giving rise to Chinese success in the A+Awards lies in the growing trend for firms to prioritize functionality and responsible design over flashy, formal structures. “Chinese architects around me, they have this attentiveness,\u201d architect Wang Mian told the <\/span>Global Times.<\/span><\/a> \u201cMost times, I hear people always judging a building by its appearance, but good design is far more than its aesthetics; it solves problems. In a true architect’s eyes, there is no such thing as only focusing on big ambitious ideas while neglecting to improve a situation a little bit better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The outcome of the 10th Annual A+Awards will be one of the highlights of 2022, and will bring with it plenty of creative surprises. One thing appears certain though \u2014 China\u2019s most innovative architecture firms will feature prominently once again.<\/span><\/p>\n
