RAFA 2025

From sessions on innovation, technology and sustainability to our Women in Architecture exhibition and the RIBA Asia Pacific Awards, the festival created a strong platform for cultural exchange and collaboration across borders.

Highlights from the visit:

600+ attendees at RAFA.

Strong collaboration across mainland China, Hong Kong and Singapore, including signing an Memorandum of Understanding with the Architectural Society of China (ASC).

Announcing 10 Asia Pacific Award winners after a live design review.

Architect-led building tours around Shenzhen.

Thank you to our Chapters, members, partners, and everyone who contributed to making RAFA 2025 a success. The scale of engagement and quality of dialogue over the past three days has been truly inspiring, and a powerful reminder of the value of connecting our profession internationally.
