The 2016 Wheelwright Prize is now accepting applications; the deadline for submissions is February 8, 2016. Dedicated to fostering new forms of architectural research informed by cross-cultural engagement, the Wheelwright Prize is open to emerging architects practicing anywhere in the world.

To be eligible applicants must have received a degree from a professionally accredited architecture program in the past 15 years (after 2001). Applicants must submit a portfolio, a research proposal, and a travel itinerary that takes them outside their country of residence.

An international jury will be announced in January 2016, and the winner will be announced April 2016.
