Omrania and the Center for the Study of the Built Environment (CSBE) run together an annual Award for the best graduation projects by students of architecture throughout the Arab World. The Award was initiated in 2008.
This year – 2016 – we are proud to launch the Award’s 9th cycle. We are very excited as we received the highest number of submissions on record. The jury members of the 2016 Award’s cycle – Róisín Heneghan, Ammar Khammash, and Mohsen Mostafavi – have reviewed all 194 project entries and selected the winners.
