Urban Architecture Photography Contest

Step into the world of lines, structures, and city design. In Urban Architecture Photography Contest , we celebrate the built environment in all its forms — from towering skyscrapers and historic facades to minimalist modern shapes and everyday urban details. This contest invites photographers to explore how architecture defines a city’s character, rhythm, and visual identity.
Show us the artistry of constructed spaces: the geometry, the textures, the meeting points of light and shadow, and the way architecture interacts with people and the environment. Whether your photo highlights bold contemporary design, intricate historical craftsmanship, or the quiet patterns hidden in the city grid, we want to see your perspective on urban design.
Photos can be taken on any device — professional camera or mobile phone. What matters is the vision, composition, and overall quality of your work.

What We’re Looking For

Architectural focus — images that highlight buildings, structures, lines, shapes, or design elements in the urban environment
Strong composition — thoughtful framing, perspective, alignment, and visual balance
Creative use of light & shadow — how illumination, reflections, and contrast define architectural form and mood
Details & textures — close-up or abstract elements that reveal character and craftsmanship
Urban context — architecture interacting with people, weather, nature, or city life
Technical quality — clarity, sharpness, tonal control, and professional presentation
