I LOVE ARCHITECTURE is the motto for the Az W Photo Award 2016, which coincides with the exhibition ‘In The End: Architecture’. Photographs were sought of buildings completed in the last 50 years. A jury of experts selected the winners from the many and extremely varied entries, which are on show for three weeks at the Az W Shop. The overall winner can look forward to owning an Eames Plastic Chair by Vitra.

There is an additional public vote on Facebook from 10.09 – 10.10.2016. The photograph with the most “Likes” is to be shown nationwide for two days on 2,254 infoscreens.
