EDGE AWARDS 2025

We invite young architects and visionary creators from related disciplines to showcase their groundbreaking projects and concepts that push the boundaries of architecture and design.

Description
If your work explores the social, ecological, or theoretical challenges of today and tomorrow, we encourage you to apply. Submit your project to one of five award categories and join a community of forward-thinking innovators redefining the edge of the future.
What does it mean to be an architect in 2025? What new challenges do we face? What social, ecological, and technological changes are currently unfolding? What defines the aesthetics of our time, and what ideas do new formal experiments express? Is building necessary at all? And if so, in what form, with what tools, and for whom? What will the society of the future look like, and how can architecture relate to it? How can a building designed for longevity respond to these transformations? What opportunities do architects have if they take today's challenges seriously? The EDGE Award supports progressive and forward-thinking initiatives at both regional and European levels.
