Excellence Since More Than 20 Years
The SKYDB AWARDS are an architectural recognition for outstanding achievements in the design of tall buildings. Each year the best new skyscraper of a given year is determined with the support of public communities in the fields of architecture and construction. The skyscraper award was the world’s first presentation of an architectural award for a tall building when first selected in the year 1999.
The SKYDB AWARDS is today following its long tradition by including the public in the selection process.
