It embraces the creative use of digital tools and digitally produced renderings while recognizing the enduring importance of hand drawing.

The prize has become an “important fixture and highlight” within the context of the WAF, as its Program Director (and chair of the judging panel) Paul Finch commented, which showcases the best drawings in an appropriate venue such as the Sir John Soane’s Museum – one of UK’s most unusual and significant museums with a continuing and developing commitment to education and creative inspiration. In addition to the relevance of this award in architecture, Ken Shuttleworth, founder of Make Architects added: “Drawing is a special tie, a strong common ground between architects and artists”, to which every player involved fully agrees.
