For architecture firms, there's nothing quite like the recognition a global festival can bring – especially one as renowned as the World Architecture Festival. Set to take place in Amsterdam from 28-30 November this year, the festival is a global showcase of the very best projects from around the world – and New Zealand is well represented.
LandLAB was nominated under the 'Future Projects' category for their Ponsonby Park + project, while Warren and Mahoney received nominations for their University of Waikato Marae and Multi-Purpose Facility and their Lincoln University and AgResearch Joint Facility. Beca Architects received a nomination for the Manukau Bus Station in Auckland, while Opus Architecture received a nomination for the University of Waikato's Law and Management Building.
According to Architecture Now, festival organisers noted a record number of entries in 2018, making the shortlist nominations all the more special. There's a substantial 536 projects from 81 countries in the shortlist, with winning announcements to come in November.
