About Architects Awards

Sri Lankan Architecture Awards are the esteemed Sri Lankan awards for Architecture established by the Sri Lanka Institute of Architects in 1956. SLA Awards aims to recognize and reward built architectural works that address the needs and aspirations of excellence in Sri Lankan Design.

SLIA as the Institute responsible for the Built Environment in Sri Lanka, strives to ensure exceptional Architectural works are celebrated to shape our Country’s built fabric to become the Wonder of Asia. The awards aim to recognize and brand Sri Lankan Architecture in appropriation to its people, context and construction technology.

The SLIA has been conducting the legendary Awards Cycle for more than 25 years. The following categories are currently recognized on a wider cross section of awards, island wide.

SLIA's Architectural Awards are the most prominent Awards in Sri Lanka simply because selection is by a renowned panel of Jurors, a Technical Evaluation Committee and an International Juror who is familiar with local Architecture and who recognizes and acknowledges excellence in Architecture by physically visiting all shortlisted projects island-wide is the key feature of this most outstanding award scheme.

The scrutiny and strict contingent evaluation and anonymous marking process ensure a very contingent selection process to recognize Architecture during the short listing phase. Additionally, the subsequent physical visits to all sites further enhances credentials and credibility to recognize the high standards in Architecture and is the pride of SLIA's legendary Awards Scheme.
