Competition Brief can be found HERE This is a single stage ideas competition, this year participants are asked to design an architectural and cultural landmark that hosts the Barjeel collection and represents modern art, architecture and design in the Arab world.

I started collecting art in 2002 with the intention of making the works available to the public in one way or another." Ahmed Al-Mallak, Founding Director of Tamayouz Excellence Award said: "We are delighted to launch the 3rd cycle of the Rifat Chadirji Prize, which in a very short time has become the Middle East's most prestigious and sought after architectural ideas competition.
