EVENT SPECIAL

Eye on ASEAN

WORLD ARCHITECTURE FESTIVAL

Welcome to our special coverage of the World Architecture Festival 2020-2021, where an unprecedented seven Philippine firms received shortlist nods, our strongest showing yet. We are also casting an eye on our ASEAN neighbors’ performance as they champion the best the region has to offer on the world stage. At the end of the week, two notable projects will be crowned Building of the Year and Future Building of the Year. Can an ASEAN structure make history by bringing home the plum prize?
