Every two years, Archiprix International invites all university-level courses in the field of architecture, urban planning, and landscape architecture to send in their best graduation projects. A record number of 184 projects from 67 countries from every continent were submitted to Archiprix International 2005. A fascinating collection of designs is presented in this publication, consisting of a book and a dvd. The book contains a selection of the projects including those of the winners and the nominees as well as the jury report. The dvd contains the full crop and besides the project presentations, there is a documentary film and a report of the workshops held in Glasgow in June 2005.

This book and CD-ROM present the world's best final-year projects by students in architecture, urban design and landscape architecture. Archiprix International invited institutions teaching design from all over the world in 2001 and 2003 to each select and send in their best final-year project. A fascinating collection of over 300 submitted projects from every continent gives an insight into the trends worldwide in design education. They range from a vision of a futuristic urban Utopia from Kazakhstan to a museum for African culture from Ghana, and a cutting-edge Dutch polder landscape to a modest lookout tower in a Finnish park. Besides project presentations, the book also includes the jury's assessments. «
