An enchanting bookstore “straight out of a movie”, a beautiful wooden chapel in a forest, and an Yves Saint Laurent museum in Marrakech are few of the deserving winners of ArchDaily’s “Building of the Year Awards 2020”.
Astoundingly, more than 95,000 people dropped their votes in 15 diverse categories, that highlighted a wide range of interventions, typologies, scale, material and locations. From Global South to Scandinavian territories, exceptional projects are recognized. With new names surfacing every year, this edition, as did its predecessors, honors the well-established and the newcomers.
