Xizang Art Museum wins Supreme Award for Structural Excellence

The Xizang Art Museum in Lhasa, Xizang autonomous region, received the prestigious 2024 Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence for structural engineering excellence at the recent Structural Awards ceremony held in London. It is the first time a project from Xizang has received the accolade.

A design team from Tongji Architectural Design Group preserved the original structures of an old cement factory, integrating them into a layout that meets the complex functional requirements of a large art museum. The building also incorporates elements of the local culture, highlighting the region’s industrial heritage.
