The judges were asked to look beyond the architecture, and to consider composition, use of scale and the photographers’ sensitivity to atmosphere. The shortlist consists of entries from six categories: Exterior, Interior, Sense of Place, Buildings in Use, Bridges and Transport Hub.

The photographs will be displayed at The World Architecture Festival (WAF) Lisbon in Portugal from 30 November – 2 December.
