There is still just over one week before the entries close for the 2015/2016 AfriSam-SAIA Award for Sustainable Architecture + Innovation.

There are four categories:
a) Sustainable Architecture

The awards provide for a full scope of visionaries working in the field of sustainable architecture, construction, innovation, social programmes and innovative product design to be recognised by the prestigious award presented by AfriSam and the South African Institute of Architects (SAIA).
All four categories are geared towards the recognition of regenerative whole systems design.
