The 22 Most Anticipated Projects of 2022

As the new year kicks off, we’re taking a look ahead to the projects we’re most looking forward to in 2022. With a mix of cultural and commercial programs, the designs are located across five continents, with many under construction for multiple years. Designed across a wide range of scales, they represent a mix of interconnected landscapes, museums, and new skyscrapers. 

A number of projects opening this year have had construction timelines shaped by resource availability and labor issues related to the global pandemic. At the same time, there are also projects that have moved forward quickly and their construction showcases the range of building conditions around the world. Drawn from different climates and material approaches, they reflect design and construction through a global lens.
