On December 30th, the ARCASIA Awards for Architecture 2020 was announced. The Medog Meteorological Center designed by Ping Jiang, the Design Principal of EID Architecture, won the Honorable Mention Award of Institutional Buildings Category for the Public Amenity.

JURY CITATION:

The project combined the functions of a meteorological center as well as a living space serving the community with infrastructure. The form of the building adopted some of the elements of Tibet traditional architecture while interpreted them in a modern way, nicely blending into the context and texture of the existing town.
