With the news that David Adjaye's National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC has been named Design of the Year for 2017, here's a look at some of the other impressive projects the architect has coming up, from a spy museum to a memorial to extinct species.

Ruby City for Linda Pace Foundation, San Antonio, USA, expected 2018

Planned to complete in late 2018, to coincide with the celebrations for San Antonio’s 300th birthday (although the public won't have access until 2019), this $16 million (£10 million) museum is based on a dream of its patron, philanthropist Linda Pace.

The distinctive facades of the two-storey, 14,000-square-foot (4,267-square-metre) contemporary art museum for the Linda Pace Foundation will be made of crimson precast concrete panels flecked with glass aggregate.

Mass Extinction Memorial Observatory (MEMO), Isle of Portland, UK, expected 2019

This 30-metre-high stone spiral will be a memorial to extinct species of the present and future. The memorial will house an information on the 860 species identified as extinct since the demise of the dodo in the 17th century.

Although a ceremonial ground breaking ceremony took place in 2014, the building is still fundraising and is now expected to be complete in 2019.
