EU Prize For Contemporary Architecture. Mies Van Der Rohe Award 2017

10/10/2017

The European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award 2017 is a catalogue of all the works nominated for the present edition, which provides a panorama of architecture of the past two years in Europe.
This is a sum of all the fragments of architectures, urban fabrics, cities, and territories. A wide architectural sample of sizes, materials and unique strategies that share being European. Classification organises this great group of works, in order to be able to understand them and make the jury selection process easier. There are many ways of classifying, and the one that we present here is not the only one nor is it fixed, but it has the desire to synthesise a many-sided reality and suggest relations. The catalogue is divided into two separate but complementary volumes: “The Compilation” and “The Jury Selection”.
