SKYDB Awards

Honoring the best new skyscrapers each year

Every year SKYDB selects the most significant tall buildings completed that year. Winners are picked by community members for the best functionality and design. When the inaugural award was selected in 1999, no architectural prize existed specifically for tall buildings.
