The selection of finalists for this year's International High-Rise Award (IHP) has been made. The jury has named five outstanding projects that reflect the geographical breadth and architectural diversity of global high-rise construction. The selected buildings represent the continents of Asia, Europe, Australia, and South America.
The International High-Rise Award, which recognises the development of pioneering high-rise projects, focuses on criteria such as innovative design, technical feasibility, urban integration, and sustainability. The buildings now presented have, in the jury's opinion, met these requirements to a particular degree.
The geographical distribution of the finalists underscores the global relevance and the diverse regional developments in high-rise construction. Projects from four continents—Asia, Europe, Australia, and South America—have been nominated for the final award. This selection provides a comprehensive overview of current trends and construction methods in various cultural and economic regions.
The International High-Rise Award is presented every two years and is one of the most prestigious accolades in high-rise architecture. It serves as an indicator of innovation and excellence in an urban context, considering not only aesthetic appearance but also functional quality and impact on the urban fabric.
The announcement of the finalists is an important step in this process, drawing attention to structures that are both architecturally sophisticated and exemplary for sustainable construction at great heights. The final decision and award ceremony will take place in the coming months, highlighting the winning project that most impressed the jury.
