Meet the architects shortlisted for the Royal Academy's 2024 Dorfman Prize

The Royal Academy of Arts will soon crown the winner of its prestigious £10,000 (€12,000) Dorfman Prize, an honour awarded to forward-thinking architects who push the boundaries of their field.

This year’s shortlist spotlights four remarkable practices - b+ from Germany, Livyi Bereh from Ukraine, Salima Naji from Morocco, and TEN from Switzerland and Serbia - each praised for their commitment to addressing the urgent issues facing architecture today.

In the words of Sir Lloyd Dorfman CBE, an emeritus trustee of the Royal Academy Trust and a founding partner of the award, the prize "seeks out the most exciting architecture internationally", celebrating people and collectives who are pioneering creative responses to the needs of our time.

The winner of the prize is being revealed at a ceremony on 31 October 2024 at the Benjamin West Lecture Theatre in Burlington Gardens.

Here's a closer look at each of the four projects this year:

bplus.xyz (b+) are a collaborative architecture practice dedicated to reimagining and updating existing structures. Rejecting the notion that newer is inherently better, they work creatively within existing regulations to create dynamic spaces.

This principle is exemplified in their office and workshop, housed in a towering concrete silo, part of an old factory in what was once East Berlin, where they aim to develop a larger urban project.

Notable projects include MAGNUS+ in Hamburg, a mixed-use redevelopment of a former ship engine factory, as well as the transformation of a former lingerie factory in Potsdam into a brutalist-style weekend villa.

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Livyj Bereh has been reconstructing the roofs of damaged homes, schools, and community buildings in the country.
