About Archello Awards
The Archello Awards is an affordable and exhilarating global awards programme celebrating the very best architecture projects and building products in the world.
“At its core Archello showcases contemporary architecture projects and the way they are materialized”, says Martijn Postmus, CEO of Archello. “That’s why the Archello Awards celebrates the cutting-edge projects from leading architecture firms all over the world and at the same time celebrates the breakthrough innovations by leading manufacturers all over the world.”
“The architecture field faces all kinds of challenges, from reducing its carbon footprint to creating affordable housing. And I am convinced that for architects to answer these challenges we need to learn from the best architectural concepts and we need to apply the best building products,” Postmus adds.
Archello is one of the most popular architecture platforms in the world, growing fast year after year. As its focus the online platform has a global presence with offices in cities like Toronto and Amsterdam (HQ).

Nominees and winners get global media coverage through the media of Archello and receive a beautiful certificate to celebrate the historic success of their studio.
What the jury will consider
In their jury process the judges will consider the following criteria:
Craftsmanship – to what extent has the concept, which forms the basis of the design, been developed and materialized consistently and at all scales?
Innovation – to what extent does the project contribute to the development of the field? This can, for example, be about (a new) building typology, the role of the designer or architect, the way that an existing structure has been treated, or the application of new technologies.
Societal relevance – to what extent does the project offer an answer to current societal issues and how does this translate into the concept of the building?
Sustainability – to what extent has the carbon footprint of the project been reduced, has the energy consumption of the building been reduced, have biobased or recycled materials been applied, and/or has an existing structure been incorporated into the building – reducing the need for new materials?
Design – to what extent has the concept, which forms the basis of the design, been developed and materialized consistently, and in great detail? How do form and function relate to each other?
Innovation – to what extent does the product provide added value over existing products? Does it, for example, feature a new form factor, have new technical properties or does it open up new applications?
Sustainability – to what extent has the carbon footprint of the product been reduced, has the energy consumption of its production been reduced, have biobased or recycled materials been applied and/or is there a plan to take the product back at the end of its lifecycle to be recycled?
