DETAIL Prize 2020 Award Ceremony on 28 January 2021 at 5-7 pm (CET)
We are looking forward to presenting the BUGA Fibre Pavilion amongst the winning projects at this public online event.
The Jury's statement on the prize:
“This pavilion impressively demonstrates the important rôle that universities can play as research sites for architecture. Based on advanced material technology and digital production methods, this structure was developed in close interdisciplinary cooperation between architects, structural engineers and various industrial companies. Its actual construction, however, was preceded by years of research and development work – the intensity of which is probably only possible in a university context. The elegance and lightness of the resulting space is reminiscent of the experimental designs of both Cedric Price and Buckminster Fuller, while its highly optimised, expressive structure is testimony to the age-old insight that new building materials may also suggest new forms of architectural expression.”
