  Contenido parcial: This month’s issue celebrates the winners of the RAIC’s 2026 Annual Awards. The architecture firms, architects, researchers, and projects recognized in these pages vary in aesthetic inclinations and geography, but they share a key common value: a focus on what it takes to create works of architectural quality within an increasingly complex world.- The top accolade the RAIC’s Gold Medal goes to Pat Hanson, who leads Toronto-based gh3*. Her work, documented in a special supplement, is remarkable for the clarity of its ideas, rigour of execution, and transformation of utilitarian infrastructure and industrial programs into landmark buildings—such as at her most recent project, Edmonton’s O-day’min Park Pavilion.- Moriyama Teshima Architects, winner of this year’s Architectural Practice Award, was founded by Japanese Canadians Raymond Moriyama and Ted Teshima. They brought a conviction that architecture can help uphold democracy by giving form to dignity, welcome, and belonging. Eight partners now lead a firm that continues to push boundaries in social inclusion, inventive process, architecture that uplifts daily life, and technical leadership shared openly with the broader architectural community.- The Emerging Architectural Practice Award is bestowed on Vancouver-based MOTIV Architects, a partnership between architects Tracey Mactavish and Asher deGroot. Founded in 2017, the firm has evolved to focus on achieving positive environmental and social impact through projects such as food hubs, net-zero carbon community learning centres, and buildings made with repurposed materials.- The use of low-carbon construction materials is the focus of design and research firm Material Cultures, the winner of the RAIC’s International Prize. Based in London, UK, the organization uses built work, research outputs, and educational initiatives to integrate bio-based materials and minimally processed minerals into efficient construction systems.- This year’s RAIC Advocate for Architecture Award winner is Christopher Glaisek, Chief Planning and Design Officer at Waterfront Toronto. For over 20 years, Glaisek has pushed for design excellence in major developments and landscape projects on the 2,000-acre waterfront, through initiatives including design competitions, leadership in the master planning and design of new neighbourhoods, and the creation and management of a Design Review Panel.- The RAIC’s Research & Innovation Award goes to a Perkins&Will-led study on building-integrated architecture. Resource Circularity: Reimagining Cities as Regenerative Ecosystems advances a system to analyze building-integrated agriculture in direct relationship to host buildings, rather than as isolated agriculture systems, to determine when these systems contribute net environmental and operational value.- The book Mobs and Microbes: Global Perspectives on Market Halls, Civic Order, and Public Health (Leuven University Press, 2023), co-edited by TMU’s Leila Marie Farah with University College Dublin’s Samantha L. Martin, is the winner of an RAIC Architectural Journalism and Media Award. It crosses between architectural history, urban history, and urban studies to offer critical perspective on how markets have been used as instruments of soft power, especially within colonial and imperial contexts.- Three projects were recognized with the Prix du XXième siècle. Patkau Architects’ Lalme’ Iwesawtexw is a landmark project in the evolution of Indigenous education and architecture in Canada. Dan Hanganu’s Pavilion de Design at UQAM remains an exemplary environment for Canadian creative arts education. And the recognition of Raymond Moriyama’s Ontario Science Centre adds to the chorus of protest against the Centennial building’s unjustified closure.- Together, this year’s winners exemplify approaches that thrive in complexity, and that advance thoughtful architecture within those parameters. In an era when social and environmental values risk being cast aside in deference to market forces, these winning projects, people, and firms demonstrate the ongoing importance of quality architecture to thriving communities and societies.
