How to Choose the Right Category
Choose the category that best matches the project’s primary design problem and evidence. Avoid selecting a category only because its name sounds prestigious; category fit helps the jury compare the work with relevant peers and criteria.
Search and Entity Architecture
The page should link to permanent WAIDE entities rather than rely on isolated text. Recommended relationships include Category → Project → Studio → Person → Country → City → Award Year → Result. This supports navigation, indexing and machine-readable context without overloading the main menu.
