"The Architecture Photography Awards 2025 (APA 2025) announces its winners across 20 categories, presenting a survey of how photographers around the world interpret the built environment. From Icelandic churches and Sicilian cloisters to futuristic alpine huts and thunder-lit Hong Kong skylines, winning photographs form a global atlas of perspective that underscores architecture's capacity to be seen as image, atmosphere, and narrative."
"Light and its absence emerge as recurring protagonists in the rest of the awards categories as well. In Chi Ho Gary Ng's Concrete Memento, sunlight funnels through the brutalist openings of Uji Station in Japan, spotlighting a solitary passerby on a staircase. His second APA 2025 winning entry, Hong Kong in the Veil, shifts to an urban scale, where skyscrapers pierce through thick sea fog at Victoria Harbour, backlit by a rare crimson sunset and the iconic silhouette of a junk boat."
The Architecture Photography Awards 2025 presented winners across twenty categories, showcasing global photographic interpretations of the built environment. Photographs highlight light, form, atmosphere, and narrative in architectural settings from Icelandic churches to Hong Kong skylines. Photo of the Year, Michael Luetge's Architectural Minimalism, frames a preserved 1950s Hamburg petrol station at night through geometry and memory. Other winners include Werner Schwehm's Windows 5.9, Chi Ho Gary Ng's Concrete Memento and Hong Kong in the Veil, Omar Garcia's Vertical Piano, Anthony Wang's Ascension, and Paulo Sousa's aerial view of the Monte Rosa Hut. Themes of light, metaphor, and landscape recur.
