Award Ceremony
The international competition - "Architectural Award", initially organized by the magazine "Style", and later jointly with the "Georgian Association of Architects" - is being held for the twentieth time this year!
This year, the magazine "Style" turned 26 years old, and the "Georgian Association of Architects" - 15 years old.
The best projects were identified from about two hundred works submitted in the competition nominations.
The architectural competition was first organized by the magazine "Style" in 2006. Since then, it has been traditionally held every year for professionals working in the field of architecture and interior design, and since 2006, the "Architectural Award" has created a space where architecture, professional opinion and new ideas meet.
For two decades, the competition has brought together architects, designers and professionals from different generations and consistently continues to support architectural culture and professional dialogue. 2006 – 2025 - twenty years, reflected in one story, which combines fragments of award ceremonies of past years - people, projects, meetings and important moments that have gradually created the history of the “Architecture Prize”.
Architecture changes. Ideas develop. Generations change. Professional heritage continues.
In 2026, a new chapter is added to this story. The international competition covers the fields of urban planning, buildings, residential or public space and interior design. The competition has aroused considerable interest and active support from companies associated with the fields of architecture and construction, both in Georgia and internationally. All this determines the perfect and successful alliance between the investor and the architect. From 2006 to the present, about 4,000 architectural works have been entered into the international competition. Over the history of our competition, about 100 companies have supported us.
