Description
The notion of sustainable development is steadily gaining acceptance. Across the globe, sustainability is one of the cornerstones of a new rationalism in the construction process.
The purpose of the GLOBAL AWARD FOR SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE is to honour annually a living architect who moves towards sustainability.
His work offers clear insights into the search for a rational contemporary architecture which is:
- fully in step with the ethical, civil and social concerns of today
- innovative in the areas of ecology, energy, materials and technology
- progressive in its search for new standards for both housing and public facilities
The very fundamentals of a project: functionality, structure and materials are being readdressed in the search for both an approach and an aesthetic which address people’s new concerns.
