Das Deutsche Architektur Jahrbuch, herausgegeben vom Deutschen Architekturmuseum (DAM) in Frankfurt am Main, publiziert seit fast 40 Jahren alle wichtigen Informationen zum aktuellen Baugeschehen in Deutschland.

Das Jahrbuch stellt in Besprechungen von namhaften Autoren die Shortlist von zwanzig Gebäuden aus Deutschland vor, die eine Jury für den DAM Preis für Architektur in Deutschland 2017 ermittelt hat. Kuratoren des Museums sowie renommierte Architekten und Architekturkritiker sichteten dazu ein Feld von einhundert Nominierungen für den Jahrgang. In der Ausgabe 2017 wird neben der besonderen Würdigung des Gewinners des DAM Preises für Architektur in Deutschland erstmals auch die engere Auswahl an Finalisten näher porträtiert. Ein eigenes Kapitel ist den Bauten deutscher Architekten im Ausland gewidmet, von denen drei Gebäude vorgestellt werden.

Die übergeordneten Essays befassen sich mit dem hochbrisanten Thema der Zukunft des Wohnungsbaus sowie mit der Darstellung Deutschlands im Ausland durch Bildungs- und Kulturbauten.
