A global awards program honoring the world's best architectural concepts, ideas and imagery.
2025 edition launching April 21st!

Showcase the extraordinary power of architectural ideas.

The Vision Awards recognizes the radical ideas shaping the future of the built environment. By celebrating imaginative urban solutions, groundbreaking housing models, and speculative public architecture, the program empowers designers, thinkers and creators to explore the power of architectural concepts as a tool for innovation.

The Vision Awards also celebrates those who tell powerful, provocative stories about architecture through their favored creative medium — be it photography, videography, models, drawings or renderings.

Whether capturing the essence of existing buildings and landscapes, or showcasing visions of what architecture could be, visionaries can be found in every sector — and all deserve a global stage.
