For this list of Top 10 International Contractors, W&C has selected companies who the magazine feels demonstrate some of the best work to emerge in recent years. All ten contractors come from different parts of the world, with other ways of approaching the vastly diverse field of construction and interior design. Among this array of contractors, all have won awards for the projects that brought them to our attention. From 19th century art galleries in the United Kingdom to energy-efficient hospitals in Abu Dhabi, this list is sure to impress any reader.
There were many extraordinary contractors that were considered for this list but our top ten—in addition to being innovators—overcame many key challenges. Among these challenges were: noise protection standards, environmental concerns, complex artisanal work, and as most contractors have had to face, a tight work schedule. So, please join us in recognizing the incredible talent exhibited here from all over the globe.
