Architecture Awards in India - March 2014

Indian architecture is reflective of the amalgamation of different cultures over varying periods of time – and how they have come to influence each other. Art and architecture in India have always been revered topics of discussion in the everyday lives of its people and aptly so. India has been a proud and rather accommodating home to design and architecture visions from either end of the art spectrum – fact that is reflected in the buildings and homes lining its streets.

Recognizing this, India’s leading media house, NDTV has decided to reward not the modern-day wizards behind the success stories in today’s architecture – through its Design and Architecture Awards, that witnesses some of the biggest names in the business coming together.

The DA Awards have been conceptualized on the same ideology as the previous NDTV awards- recognizing the maverick in achievers. Launched after the successful completion of their Property Show, the DA Awards have already seen wunderkinds registering with breathtaking examples of architectural vision. The architecture awards are being held in partnership with the German group Grohe and are powered by Autodesk. NDTV has also tied-up with ZingyHomes, as its online partner for the awards.

Other awards in the same space previously honored brilliant examples of architecture under various categories, covering all aspects of design, including hospitality, commercial structures, landscapes, lifetime achievements, etc. Architecture Awards in India are always highly anticipated, as they help provide the perfect platform for both the established and newer players to come forth and exhibit their work and even compete on the same criteria. These awards provide the ideal opportunity for budding and upcoming architects to showcase and spread word about their work and tell the world what it is that sets them apart from their predecessors. To avoid conflict of opinion and to arrive at a fair verdict, the winners are decided by a panel of the jury, that consists of established names in the art and architecture world. And before you start wondering, yes, the sustainability aspect, too, plays an important and indispensable basis for deciding the winner.
