OPEN's UCCA Dune Art Museum has won the 2019 AZ Awards, as the 'Best in Buildings Under 1,000 Square Metres category', selected by a judging panel comprised of 5 leading figures in the architectural and design fields including Pritzker Prize winner Thom Mayne. The jury stated “the Dune Art Museum embodies a unique relationship between interior and exterior. The space speaks of the place, and the materiality coherently fosters the concept.”
Launched in 2011 by AZURE, a leading North American magazine focused on contemporary architecture and design, the AZ Awards 'showcases the world's best projects, products and ideas'.
