\u201cWe believe in crafting specific architecture for a specific place and a specific way of life. The Marcus Prize is a profound encouragement for us to persist,\u201d Gong said about the award.<\/p>\n

Vector Architects has earned international recognition through projects such as Seashore Library (Qinhuangdao, Hebei, China), Yangshuo Sugarhouse Hotel (Guilin, Guangxi, China), and the renovation of the Captain\u2019s House (Fuzhou, Fujian, China). The firm has been honored with awards such as the RIBA International Award for Excellence in 2021 and the Architects Regional Council Asia (ARCASIA) Gold Award in 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cVector Architects offers a statement about the value of the architect and of architecture to our contemporary condition,\u201d said jury member Hans E. Butzer. \u201cTheir work appears to beautifully explore questions of tradition, place, and global drifts, while still being comfortably restless and aspirational.\u201d<\/p>\n
