Commenting on this year?s Awards, WAF Programme Director Paul Finch said:
?Canadian architects have been generous in their support of WAF since its launch in 2008. Our move to Berlin will mean a much more convenient journey for many, and we are looking forward to meeting new entrants and delegates, and renewing links with designers who attended the event when it was in Barcelona.?  The first members of this year?s ?super-jury? have been announced: Louisa Hutton of Sauerbruch Hutton, and Professor Frédéric Migayrou, Chair of The Bartlett School of Architecture. The esteemed panel of venerated architects will decide on the Festival?s ultimate prize ? The World Building of the Year.
