Since it was created in 2016, YTAA has aimed to support the talent of recent graduates – the architects, urban planners and landscape architects who will be responsible for transforming our environment in the future – as they enter the professional world. 

The third iteration of the biennial award draws students from registered European schools that nominated diploma projects in programs of architecture, urban planning and/or landscape architecture from the previous two years. The 2020 YTAA also includes schools from Brazil, Chile and Mexico in an effort to extend the award beyond the European Union and the extents of the Creative Europe program. (The guest countries from 2018, China and South Korea, along with India, now have a separate award, linked at bottom.)

The YTAA jury* culled the 43 shortlisted projects from 383 submitted graduation projects from 138 schools in 36 countries. As a Founding Partner of YTAA, World-Architects has a dedicated page highlighting the shortlisted projects. Stay tuned for an announcement of the finalists, the penultimate step in YTAA 2020.
