The World ArchiTecture Award (WATA) is a biennial competition celebrating outstanding architectural projects from around the globe that showcase the use of TECHNAL, SAPA, and DOMAL solutions. Entries are grouped into categories and evaluated by an international jury of architects and industry experts, who award prizes.

Through WATA, our brands—TECHNAL, SAPA, and DOMAL—reaffirm their commitment to building strong, long-term partnerships with architects, whose creativity and expertise are essential in shaping the future of the built environment.

As the industry continues to evolve, architects are responding to new priorities, particularly around sustainability, circularity, and renovation. Increasingly guided by principles of frugality, they are developing inventive approaches that emphasize resource efficiency, adaptability, and environmental responsibility.
