ACUE 2019

Mies van der Rohe Award 2019

"The Jury of the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture - Mies van der Rohe Award has decided to award the 2019 Prize for the Transformation of 3 residential blocks, 530 dwellings - Grand Parc Bordeaux, commissioned by AQUITANIS to the architects Lacaton & Vassal, Frédéric Druot Architecture and Christophe Hutin Architecture. The jury members met on three occasions. At their first meeting, held in Barcelona from 9 to 11 January 2019, the Jury reviewed the 383 works that had been nominated by the national architects' associations, the experts and the Advisory Committee. After extensive discussions over three days, 40 works were shortlisted, from which 5 finalists were chosen. They also selected the winner of the Emerging Architecture category: E26 (school refectory), commissioned by the town of Montbrun-Bocage from BAST. The president of the jury emphasised that the 40 works reflect a new programme that calls for new ways of thinking. Excellence and skill are inherent in all of them, but this is not enough; they also need to make an impact and make architects themselves think differently about the profession. The jury also drew particular attention to the fact that more and more people see, feel and experience that architecture is no longer about self-referentiality, about doing the best, the chicest and the shiniest. On the contrary, it is about improving our lives and the way we live together. The crisis has been like a warning but also an incentive to do more with less: more architecture with less material, less costs, etc. It is an evolution that we can see in the scale of the nominated projects, but we must also be aware of the ecological crisis and change the way we live on the planet. It's not just about technology, materials or insulation; it's really about how we plan and organise the territory. The Jury also considered that the 5 shortlisted works address indeterminate programmes that allow people to find different ways of using spaces and transform them into different places."
