Dezeen Awards 2022 picks Tehran Argo museum

The 2022 Dezeen Awards has named the Argo Contemporary Art Museum and Cultural Center in Tehran as the cultural building of the year.

The 2022 Dezeen Awards, London-based architecture and interior design magazine, has named the Argo Contemporary Art Museum and Cultural Center in Tehran as the cultural building of the year.

Argo Contemporary Art Museum competed with world’s 57 best buildings in different categories for this year’s Dezeen Awards.   

The Argo museum received the award in the cultural building category.

As noted by the Dezeen judges, “It is a bold adaptive reuse of a historic structure in the center of Tehran and proposes a purposeful future use, which is inclusive, which respects the past while being forward-looking, and which invites people to enjoy both the architecture and the content of this new cultural space.”

The museum and art center features gallery and event spaces, artist residencies, private studios and various public spaces.

The Argo center was previously shortlisted for the 2022 Aga Khan Award for Architecture.

The Dezeen Awards identifies the world's best architecture, interiors and design, as well as the studios and the individual architects and designers producing the most outstanding work.
