The Architecture Drawing Prize 2025 is now open for entries!

The Architecture Drawing Prize, a collaboration between Make Architects, Sir John Soane’s Museum, and World Architecture Festival, is now accepting entries for its 2025 competition.

TADP celebrates the art and skill of architectural drawing in all its forms. Established in 2017, the Prize has become a leading international platform, with shortlisted and winning entries exhibited at the prestigious Sir John Soane’s Museum in London.

What’s New for 2025?

This year, we’re embracing the evolving nature of architectural drawing, including the growing influence of AI tools and techniques. To reflect this, entries will be judged on an overall basis rather than in category silos, offering more fluidity and opportunities for diverse submissions. There will be multiple winners, along with a special prize for hand-drawing – to mark the initial inspiration behind these awards.

Why Enter?

Gain international exposure at the World Architecture Festival 2025 in Miami this November.

See your work displayed at the world-renowned Sir John Soane’s Museum in London in early 2026.

Your work will be reviewed by an esteemed panel, including Make Architects founder Ken Shuttleworth, acclaimed artists Ben Langlands and Nikki Bell, Lily Jencks of Lily Jencks Studio, and Foster + Partners’ head of design communications Narinder Sagoo.
The Prize is open to all architects, designers, and students from across the globe. We welcome drawings of every description – from traditional hand drawings to those incorporating the latest digital and AI techniques.

In the spirit of Stephen’s own research and practice, contributions should be on factually verifiable, documenting new discoveries on historic buildings in the United Kingdom, whether part of the established canon or areas less examined. We will also consider essays on building conservation and heritage crafts. We would encourage submissions, revised according to the guidelines, based on work submitted towards an academic qualification already achieved…..
