We are proud to share that Centric has been shortlisted at the World Architecture Festival 2026 in the WAF Future Projects – Commercial Mixed-Use category, one of the most important international awards in architecture.
The festival takes place from November 18 to 20 at the Broward County Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where two members of our team will present the project live to an international jury, followed by a Q&A. Category winners then present again to a super-jury, which names the World Building and Future Project of the Year at the WAF Gala Dinner on November 20. This year’s shortlist brings together 416 projects selected from more than 630 entries worldwide.
Located along Boulevard del Este in San José, Costa Rica, Centric reimagines tropical urban density as a porous, mixed-use district where city, landscape and community converge. Five mixed-use buildings rise from a shared urban base that opens to the public realm, while the project recovers the Torres River as a publicly accessible landscape for residents and the wider city.
