The Architectural Review (original) (raw)
AR Emerging
Architecture is a site of exchange, involving countless conversations between architects as well as an ecosystem of clients, craftspeople, builders, manufacturers and more. Sharing knowledge and experience across geographies and generations is central to the AR Emerging awards, which launched 25 years ago and grant early recognition to young architects around the world. Today, each edition brings together judges and finalists in productive in-person dialogue before an overall winner is chosen. This issue features profiles of the 15 finalists of the 2024 AR Emerging awards, whose work tackles the numerous crises facing the profession. Read the full editorial

Concrete is the most consumed material on the planet after water, with more than 10 billion tonnes produced each year.

This issue examines the factors that stand in the way of a radical shift away from carbon-intensive building materials such as cement and concrete. Read the full editorial

In the issue’s keynote essay, Dima Srouji traces entangled histories in the ground of Gaza; yet the ground is also a place of rebirth and regrowth, as buildings in the issue in Ecuador, Sri Lanka and elsewhere show. Some of these buildings rediscover the ground as a structural material, radically unlearning the reliance on carbon-intensive construction. Read the full editorial
