Winners of the WAF Architecture Drawing Prize 2020

The fourth annual Architecture Drawing Prize, curated by World Architecture Festival, Sir John Soane’s Museum, and Make Architects just revealed the 2020 winners.  The prize winners will also be exhibited at WAF 2021 in Lisbon. Overall Winner and Hybrid Category Winner: Apartment #5, a Labyrinth and Repository of Spatial Memories by Clement Laurencio, Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL (cover image) Summary: "The dwelling, set in London, re-creates atmospheres of places remembered from a recent voyage to India. Separate pencil hand-drawings are digitally composed, corrupting and curating places into a labyrinth of spatial memories."  Jury comment: "This drawing creates a labyrinth of drawings, each with its own story. Familiarity and mystery are conveyed with a sensitive, confident technique of great skill and precision. There is nothing loud or colorful, only a realm of acutely observed detail with a powerful muted presence. You can really imagine being here."
