Formatted abstract The article discusses the criteria for the selection of the winners for the 2007 AA Prize for Unbuilt Work. It reports that the range of entries pointed to key social issues and revealed disparities such as the urgent need for genuine affordable housing. Officials are looking for a project that should have been built or a speculative work that shows potential.

JURY OVERVIEW: Mega-projects in Dubai and China by Australian architects with big international practices; a design for a pivot hinge by Howard Styles, a one-man-band from Canberra; Richard Goodwin's polemical treatise on public space; Crowd Production's investigations of changing domestic patterns; carefully crafted bespoke houses from all over the country; student projects; affordable, sustainable housing of varying kinds; explorations of urban form, digital and otherwise; speculative sketches; developed designs; public and commercial work of all scales, by all kinds of practices. The jury for the 2007 AA Prize for Unbuilt Work had a rich array of work to consider.
