The Instituto Tomie Ohtake and AkzoNobel continue to map contemporary architectural production by highlighting, for the fifth consecutive year, significant projects built within the current Brazilian landscape. Urban relationships, commitment to the site and sustainability, as well as design and construction inventiveness, are the fundamental criteria guiding the 5th Instituto Tomie Ohtake AkzoNobel Architecture Prize.
For this fifth edition, free registration must be completed online from February 22 to April 13, 2018, via the Instituto Tomie Ohtake website, which contains full details on the award, including the official rules and the registration platform. The competition is open to Brazilian or foreign architects of any age who have lived in Brazil for at least two years and can submit projects built within the last ten years.
The jury, composed of architects Adriana Benguela, Fábio Mariz Gonçalves, José Lira, Marcos Boldarini, and Priscyla Gomes, will select ten finalists to be featured in an exhibition at the Instituto Tomie Ohtake headquarters, open to the public from August 23 to September 23, 2018. The winners will be announced at the exhibition opening. Each of the three selected projects will be awarded an international trip for one member of the project's architectural team.
