9. AZ Tower, Brno, Czech Republic Architects were going for a ‘deconstructed’ look with this new residential and commercial building. Thirty-metre-deep power piles cool the building in summer and heat it in winter with the help of a heat pump. It's the only building in the Czech Republic using this energy-efficient way of regulating the temperature. The Emporis Skyscraper Award has been given since 2000. The jury is formed of architecture experts from all over the world, who judge nominated buildings according to aesthetic and functional design criteria.
