Now in its 10th year, the CREDAWARD program—originally known as the Chinese Real Estate Design Awards—has developed into an influential and rigorous international award program that recognizes projects that spread cutting-edge design concepts, contribute to sustainable development, and lead a path to future urban development. From Hangzhou to Shanghai, four SOM projects have won, among nearly 750 projects submitted by more than 300 organizations.

Gold Award winners include the pictured One Century (Hangzhou Wangchao Center) and Greenland Hangzhou Century Center in the Comprehensive Commercial Projects category and Jingyuan Road Riverfront District in the Future Project category. Shanghai Lingang Financial Bay Phase 2 Urban Design received a Silver Award for Planning Design.

CREDAWARD’s strict selection process, transparency, and rigorous award standards have made it known as one of the industry’s most credible awards, acting as a key resource for clients seeking the most appropriate design firms for their needs.
