Eligibility All
Target Field For the principal award and the other special awards, worldwide projects are admitted which were completed after 1 January 2004. The Special Prize for Students acknowledges study projects which were designed in this period of time.

The award will focus on the innovative details which play a crucial part in an outstanding overall design. It is not just about solving technical problems, but about the role of the details as essentially defining the whole. An innovative detail can alter the perception of a whole design and simultaneously reflect an entire design concept by itself.
