The jury considered the Xu Tiantian work perfectly suited to the objectives of Swiss Architectural Award, i.e. to recognise and raise the public profile of architects from all over the world who, through their work, have made a significant contribution to contemporary architecture.
The Jury bestowed the award for the Kanagawa Institute of Technology Workshop, the intervention at the Japanese Pavilion during the 2008 Venice Biennale and the “House with plants” in Tokyo.
