Building and Architect of the Year Awards 2026 set to showcase the next wave of architectural innovation
The 2025 Building and Architect of the Year Awards have drawn to a close, leaving behind an impressive showcase of vision, skill and collaboration. Across residential, commercial and public spaces, this year’s winners demonstrated how architecture and construction can respond to modern demands while shaping environments that endure.
From sustainability and urban regeneration to design that enhances wellbeing, the winning projects offered a clear picture of where the built environment is headed. They also underlined that great buildings come from strong partnerships between architects, contractors, engineers and clients.
With the 2025 awards now complete, attention turns to 2026. The Building and Architect of the Year Awards will once again look to celebrate the best examples of innovation and excellence – projects that set new benchmarks for functionality, environmental performance and aesthetic impact.
For those considering entering next year, this is the time to start preparing. The awards offer more than recognition. They create an opportunity to share lessons learned, gain visibility among peers and clients, and join a national conversation about the future of Ireland’s buildings.
Highlights from the 2025 awards will continue to inspire throughout the year, but 2026 promises a fresh round of projects and ideas ready to take centre stage.
Look ahead to the Building and Architect of the Year Awards 2026 – entries will open in the months ahead.
