This week on Dezeen, we reflected on the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center towers and looked at how they impacted architecture in our 9/11 anniversary series.

As part of the series, we interviewed architect Daniel Libeskind who masterplanned the rebuilding of the site in New York following the attack in 2001.

"Everything changed in architecture" after the 9/11 attacks, he told us in an exclusive interview.

We also looked at how the site was rebuilt and spoke to architects about how the terrorist attack led to "a renaissance of tall building design".

This week also saw the announcement of the Dezeen Awards 2021 shortlists.

We announced the shortlisted projects in the architecture, interiors, design, sustainability and media categories throughout the week.

Information on all the shortlisted projects can be found on the Dezeen Awards website.

Continuing the debate over the validity of architects designing airports, Pritzker Prize-winning architect Norman Foster called architects that walk away from designing airports "hypocritical".

"I do feel passionately that we have to address the infrastructure of mobility," he said in a TV interview. "We have to reduce its carbon footprint, like everything else. We can't walk away from it. We can't adopt a hypocritical moral stance."
