Architecture Plus Awards 2006 launches global call for entries
Dubai-based event invites international contenders for 13 categories
Dubai, UAE, November 2006: Organisers of the Architecture Plus Awards
have announced that the Second Cycle of the popular international event
will be held in Dubai, and have thrown open the competition to
professionals and organisations, in 13 categories. Intended to reward
architects, landscapers, designers and planners, conservationists, and
students, for their thematic contributions to 'Design for a New World',
the Awards are expected to receive entries from at least 30 countries
around the globe.
Rashid Taqui, Publisher of Architecture Plus magazine and Founder of the
Architecture Plus Award, confirmed that the Second Cycle of the biennial
award would be held in Dubai in June 2007, as the culmination of a
seven-month activity conducted across the world. "As befitting the
nature of an international competition, the Architecture Plus Awards
will run through several systematic phases of assessment and judging,
before 13 individuals or organisations are chosen as the best in their
respective categories, apart from two special commendations. All these
15 individuals will be honoured at the end of the cycle, at an event
held in Dubai," he stated.
