Top 100 world architectural practices announced in an iOS app exclusive

Latest News Tue, Mar 22, 2016 4:59 PM

Today sees the official launch of the World Architecture 100 iOS app – the only guide to the world’s biggest architecture practices.

It is the first time the World Architecture 100 has been available in app form - on both iPhone and iPad – putting invaluable industry data at the fingertips of an international audience.

As well as fun features – including a ‘shake’ mechanism to help users explore the content – the app contains a wealth of exclusive information that makes it a powerful reference tool for property and construction professionals.

As well as information on fee income, staffing and rankings for each of the practices that qualified for this year’s 100, the app includes a wealth of additional content including:

  • The Top 10 most profitable practices in the world
  • Analysis on the health of the architecture industry across the globe
  • The best new buildings completing in 2012 including projects by OMA, Grimshaw and Herzog & de Meuron
  • The practices on the verge of becoming the next big names in architecture
  • The world’s most admired architects
  • Architects’ favourite contractors, consultants, engineers and project managers

The World Architecture 100 2012 app is now available to purchase from the iTunes store at £3.99 for the iPhone and £4.99 for the HD iPad version. QR codes linking directly to the app’s iTunes listing are available in Notes to Editors.

The World Architecture 100 has been an exclusive source of information about the top 100 architectural practices in the world for over 10 years and has become a must-have resource for top professionals in the architectural, construction and property industries across the world.

The data is collated every year on behalf of BD, the architect’s newspaper in the UK, for its annual top 100 publication. Thousands of practices take part in the survey, and are ranked by the number of qualified architects they employ.

Anna Winston, BD online editor, said: “Apps are a golden opportunity to share rich information and make hard data more friendly. In the past, the World Architecture 100 was seen mainly as a resource for big architecture practices, FTSE listed companies and their clients. But the app makes this information available for both companies with a financial interest in knowing who the world’s biggest practices are and anyone with an interest in architecture.”
