Award-Winning Architecture: Projects & Architects

Explore 594 illustrated award cases: actual buildings and architectural honours, with the programme, year and official evidence stated separately.

Built-project awards and career honours recognise different subjects. Award year, building completion and photography date are distinct; a personal honour does not transfer to every building by its recipient. Photographs open at a larger size with creator and licence references.

Pritzker Architecture Prize / 2021

Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal

Architect honour

The 2021 Pritzker Architecture Prize recipient record names Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal. Jean-Philippe Vassal studied architecture in Bordeaux and then worked in urban planning in Niger, where Anne Lacaton often visited him. The official biography connects those experiences with an appreciation of ingenuity under limited resources. Their early hut project in Niamey preceded a shared commitment to improving what already exists.
