Guardian Top Projects 2025

3rd Edition

São Paulo, Brazil | May 28, 2025

With the presence of prominent figures from the construction, architecture, decoration, and glass markets, Guardian Glass unveiled, this Wednesday (05/28), during a gala evening at Palácio Tangará in São Paulo (SP), the most voted projects of the third edition of the "Guardian Top Projects." Professionals and companies responsible for executing projects from various regions of Brazil that stood out the most in the use of glass and mirrors produced by Guardian Glass were honored.

A total of 200 projects were submitted and analyzed by a curators' committee — composed of professionals from associations, the press, and specialized entities in the glass, architecture, and civil construction sectors — which selected those that stood out the most for design, technology, and innovation. These projects were then submitted to a public vote, which totaled more than 9,000 votes — with only one vote counted per person — demonstrating a high level of engagement and interest. All finalist projects were distinguished by their strong visual impact, complexity, and the excellent technical use of the products.

For us, it is a great source of pride to acknowledge and honor professionals who have been transforming the architecture and construction market with proposals that integrate aesthetics, functionality, energy efficiency, and comfort.‘’
