Devised to honor the best architecture, spaces, and products from across the globe, the 2020 A+Awards received over 5,000 entries from more than 100 countries. In response to global upheaval, this season’s theme was The Future of Architecture, and was intended to elevate those designs “that are transforming society and the built environment for generations to come.” As a result, the jury emphasized projects that respond to imminent global challenges such as climate change, urbanization and migration, rising inequity, and pandemic.

The jurors included Amanda Levete (principal, AL_A), Christian Benimana (director, Africa Design Centre), David de Rothschild (explorer and climate activist), Aric Chen (curator, Design Miami/Basel), and Neri Oxman (designer and faculty, MIT Media Lab).
