Founders of RCN Arquitectes, Rafael Aranda, Carme Pigem and Ramon Vilalta, have each been selected as 2017 Pritzker Architecture Prize Laureates. Known for their extraordinary capability for choreographing landscape and architecture to create buildings with a highly attuned sense of place, they have brought their exemplary style to Dubai’s Muraba Residences, Palm Jumeirah.

“It is a great joy and a great responsibility. We are thrilled that this year three professionals, who work closely together in everything they do, are recognised,” says Pigem.

Originally from Olot, in the Catalonian region of Spain, the team has worked together since 1988. The awards mark the first time that three architects have been honoured with the prize. Their work captured the attention of the Pritzker jury due to their ability to create an emotional architectural experience.
