On Friday, June 24, AZURE launched the 2022 AZ Awards Winners Reveal and introduced the world’s most inspiring and innovative projects, products and concepts, awarded by this year’s remarkable jury.
This year’s submissions – received from 43 countries – were evaluated by 10 world-renowned practitioners: Alison Brooks, Drew Sinclair, Gabriele Chiave, Garth Roberts, Lauren Stimson, Ma Yansong, Primo Orpilla, Róisín Lafferty, Siamak Hariri and Tao Zhang adjudicated through an immersive and remote deliberation process and selected the Winners and Awards of Merit in 24 categories.
The 24 winners and 46 Awards of Merit exemplify excellence in innovation, aesthetics, creativity and social and environmental responsibility.
Winners will receive the 2022 AZ Awards trophy, an NFT titled AZZY, created specifically for AZURE by international designer – and juror – Garth Roberts, in collaboration with digital artist Sebastian Schoellhammer and sound artist and musician Nicola Ratti. The full experience features animation and sound and is exclusive to the winners of the 2022 AZ Awards.
