Beijing Grants Best Architecture Design Awards

Beijing Conference Center, featuring a combination of China's traditional architecture with modern construction technologies, topped the awards list of Beijing's Ten Best Architecture Design Selection, which was granted Wednesday.

Other award-winning architectures include Beijing University Science and Technology Building, Beijing Haidian District Community Center.

Experts said that this year's selection witnessed the emergence of more buildings featured science and technology, which constituted the hallmark for the fast-growing high-tech industries and enterprises in this capital city.

Meanwhile, architects have adopted a much more open attitude in their design to present the municipality with various construction styles.

These popular architecture pieces involved many environmental friendly high-tech building techniques and materials, namely, walls that can recycle internal air and energy-saving glass.

Beijing's architecture regulation sector has demanded architects to focus more on the integration of traditional customs of the municipality, local aesthetic traits and modern trends in their designs.

This year's award selecting process lasted 20 days. It is the seventh issuing of the award in seven consecutive years.

Some 109 design projects from 48 institutions located in Beijing have participated in the competition.
