A total of 12 winners were recognized with seven Awards of Excellence and five Award of Merit given out overall. Projects were ranked using a host of criteria including “enhancing learning in classrooms; balancing function with aesthetics; establishing a connection with the environment; being respectful of the surrounding community; demonstrating high-level planning in the design process; and integrating sustainability in a holistic fashion.” Click below for more details about each of the award-winning designs.

“Every angle that a building is viewed from tells a different story about how it was built or how it is used. Camera angles can turn short buildings into skyscrapers, create the illusion of larger spaces or establish context.” Below, you’ll find an assortment of images from the One Photo Challenge that focus on the singular facades of buildings. “Despite appearing simple at the first glance, when seen through a camera’s lens, the rhythmic repetition of façade patterns can be harnessed to evoke powerful emotions, to emphasize certain themes and to tell rich stories of the architecture and its place in society.”
