enabled the participants to gain first hand industry knowledge, personalized
coaching, mentoring and skill-building through various workshops by
experienced lecturers, they also learn from their fellow peers from across
borders.

With that, AYDA has established a close-knit design community comprising

professional architects, interior designers, industry associations, partners,

The ASA International Design
Competition this year is dedicated
to fresh ideas in sustainability –
approaches so radical,
unanticipated, and transformative
they earn the epithet ‘uncanny’.
‘Uncanny sustainability’ should
open a route to the logical next
steps in eco-friendly architecture
: a built environment that is no
longer human-centric but
dedicated to the well-being of all
living beings.
Architecture Design of the Year aim to
recognize individuals and teams who have
made a substantial contribution in the field
of architecture. This award recognizes that
excellence in architecture goes far beyond
the practical purpose of a building.
Architecture Design of the Year believe
great architecture is about creating a
lasting design that will remain for
generations, inspiring people and enriching
their lives. Innovative buildings can help
redesign the way we live our lives for the
better and enable us make the most of the
space we have.

It depends on every country. (for example
Location for the 2019 competition only Singapore,

The Architect Design of the Year accolade is a potentially career-making honor

and will 1be given to the individual or team they feel has explored new ground
and created something truly exemplary.
The IDA’s Architect Design of the Year is one of the most respected awards in
the industry and aims to showcase the phenomenal talent and vision displayed
by architects all over the world.
YAC is a association whose aim is to promote architectural
competitions amongst young designers – no matter if
graduates or students. First YAC wants to propel research
about design, by periodically suggesting tangible issues on
Architecture and City planning. By so YAC wants to provoke
reflections about physical places for human activities that
everyday are becoming more and more unpredictable and
dynamic.
Second we want to endorse young designers’ creativity and
talent by granting the best of them adequate prizes and
good exposure amongst paper and web platforms. YAC
wishes to revamp a design culture to pragmatically answer
the issues on human action and territory comsumption. We
wish many and different designers will join us in this
challenge.
