We’re proud to share that the New Tashkent Exhibition Center has been selected as a finalist in the SHARE Architecture Awards 2026.

Designed as part of the wider vision for New Tashkent, the building brings together architecture, landscape and public space within a civic destination shaped around a clear geometric composition and a central garden.

It is great to see the project recognised alongside an international field of work, and we look forward to joining the SHARE Architecture Awards at the Barbican Centre in London this December (3rd/ 4th) to present our scheme to the jury.

A big thank you to the Cross Works design team led by Hakan Agca and driven forward by Fernando Sanchez, Mark Kovacs-Biro, Michal Pajakiewicz, Karolina Hejduk, Kisanet Goitom and Siméon Artamonov.

Over an intense week in Libya we had the opportunity not only to present our vision for the future of Benghazi, but to experience the city, meet the people shaping its next chapter, and see first-hand the scale of transformation already underway.

From our exhibition stand at the Global Competitive Urban Planning Initiative – Benghazi event, Cross Works presented the project through a 30 m² masterplan display, 3D printed models, videos, a digital portal and interactive content, bringing together months of design, research and thinking into one space.

But some of the most valuable moments happened beyond the stand. Conversations with local stakeholders, visits across the city, discovering Benghazi’s coastline, urban fabric, culture and energy and food, and understanding the place behind the plan.

We were also delighted to be witness to the opening of the new university, and an incredible ceremony that features a speech from Marshall Khlaifa Haftar and Engineer Belgasam, as well as a number of entertainment acts. We're very grateful to have been invited.

Our team was also impressed by the efforts and ideas of various other competitors and consortia from the UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, Turkiye and beyond. We hope to work alongside them all, in realising this incredibly ambitious project, to mobilise a new generation of Libyan architects, designers, city-builders and more, to rebuild Benghazi for the 21st Century.

Such a memorable week in Eastern Libya, and we hope to return very soon.

Big thanks to the Cross Works cities & tech teams, including Hakan Agca, Matt Schalcher, Siméon Artamonov, Mark Kovacs-Biro, Yash Bedse, Abdullah Alrasheed, Fernando Sanchez, Pujitha Vasudevan, Tristan Hubbard, Ingrid Daniela Farfan Martinez, Emma Walsh, Karolina Hejduk, Michal Pajakiewicz, Kisanet Goitom and Mohamed Bugrein.

Thank you to ا - صندوق التنمية وإعادة إعمار ليبيا - Fund for Development and Reconstruction of Libya of Libya and the Global Competitive Urban Planning Initiative – Benghazi for bringing everyone together.
