“Examples of projects by this year’s Top 10 Award winners we see both, innovation for great designs and long-term solutions for sustainability,” said Dr. Matthias Krups, Chairman of BCI Asia.
“The fact that buildings are responsible for as much as one third of global greenhouse gas emissions and 40 percent of global energy used is starting to be recognised stronger by the market players around the world. This is a trend BCI is happy to witness in Asia as well,” he added.
The event will be graced by Rita Soh, President of the Board of Architects Singapore. Meanwhile, BCI will also confer the FuturArc Green Leadership Award (International Awards for Green Built Projects) and FuturArc Prize (International Green Design competition).
Rewarding outstanding developers and architecture firms throughout the region annually, the BCI Asia Awards recognises the best firms from Indonesia, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Singapore.
