The World Architecture Festival (WAF) awards program celebrates newly-built works, stunning interiors as well as future concepts that "address major architectural issues facing society and the planet." Proposals selected for the 2022 WAFX (Future Projects category) highlight creative schemes that "embrace cutting-edge design approaches to address major world issues ranging from tackling the climate emergency to building community resilience." 

Paul Finch, the WAF's program director shares, "big challenges require big commitment and fresh thinking. These future projects show that architects across the world are responding to complex problems in imaginative ways — with the bonus of some design delight.”
