YAC - Young Architects Competitions and KME launch ETHICAL ARCHITECTURE AWARD, aiming to award the best architectural project for humanitarian purposes. In particular, the contest is made of two categories: one dedicated to imagined and unbuilt projects; while the other one is dedicated to to built projects.
The submissions will be evaluated by an outstanding jury, peculiarly sensitive to humanitarian topics, with the likes of Kazuyo Sejima, Anupama Kundoo, Anne Lacaton .
The winning projects will be rewarded by a cash prize of € 30,000 and they will be presented at Dynamo Camp by the end of June during a special event, where the jury will personally award the winners.
> BRIEF
In a world where the gap in the distribution of resources is dramatically widening, where social issues multiply on a daily basis, there is an urgent need to promote a culture for human beings, their rights and dignity.
Architecture is one of the main disciplines that can favor wellbeing and social equity by giving identity to places and providing human beings with services and beauty. Therefore, to reaffirm the culture of an ethic and social architecture- namely an architecture for the human being- “Ethical Architecture Award” was established.
Ethical Architecture Award is Dynamo’s and Yac’s project aiming at supporting and awarding an ethical approach to architecture and design in order to honor young people and professionals whose work favors the human and social dimension of architecture.
