A. European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture
Mies van der Rohe Award 2017

Architecture is a slow process that adapts to social, political and economic

changes.

The Prize takes this statement into account and pursues the following objectives:

1. recognise and commend excellence in European architecture in conceptual, social,

cultural, technical and constructive terms

2. highlight the European city as a model for the sustainably smart city, contributing to a
sustainable European economy

3. promote transnational architectural commissions throughout Europe and abroad

4. support Emerging architects and Young Talents, as they start out on their careers

5. increase the incorporation of architectural professionals from the EU Member States and
those countries that conclude an agreement with the EU

6. cultivate future clients and promoters

7. find business opportunities in a broader global market

8. highlight the involvement of the European Union in supporting architecture as an

important element that reflects both the diversity of European architectural expression
and its role as a unifying element to define a common European culture.

The Prize objectives aim at promoting and understanding the significance of

quality and reflecting the complexity of Architectures own significance in terms
of social, technological, constructional, economic, cultural and aesthetic
achievements.

Architectures significance linked with the construction market has a social

impact and transmits a cultural message. Quality therefore refers to universal
values of generic buildings, independent from their programmes: the essence of
things rather than their formal values.

G. Calendar
The Jury met in January and reviewed the 355 works which were nominated.
They used, drawings, photos, videos and texts sent by the authors of each
work to select the 40 projects that they considered best represent the
contemporary architectural scene in Europe.

Afterwards they chose the 5 most representative works that they visited in
April-May. Each visit was preceded by a lecture (EU Mies Award Talks) in which
the jury met the architects responsible for the works, the clients, the users and
the citizens of the cities.

The announcement of the Winners took place in Brussels at Garage Citron on

May 12th, reveiling that the Winner - Deflat Kleiburg by NL architects and XVW
architectuur - and the Emerging Winner Navez, 5 social housing units by
MSA/V+ architects.

EU Mies Award Day: the granting ceremony with the Prize Winner and the
Emerging Architect Winner will take place at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion,
Barcelona, on May 26, 2017. Together with the ceremony the exhibition will be
inaugurated and the publication released. A series of EU Mies Award Talks will
take place together with open doors at the 2 winner buildings and the 4
finalist ones.

The first international venue of the exhibition will be in Bozart, Brussels from
8 September to 22 October.

H. History of the Prize

The idea for a Prize that would recognise and commend excellence in European
architecture was proposed to the European Parliament by MP Xavier Rubert de
Vents.

On April 28 1987 just under a year after the reconstruction of the Pavilion was
completed an agreement was signed between European Commissioner Carlo
Ripa di Meana and Barcelona Mayor Pasqual Maragall to launch the Mies van der
Rohe Award of the European Communities, with the first biennial edition being
held in 1988 as the Mies van der Rohe Award for European Architecture.

In 2000 the Fundaci Mies van der Rohe submitted the model of the Mies van der
Rohe Award with the addition of the Emerging Architect Award that recognises
the work of young professionals starting out on their careers in response to the
call for proposals by the European Commission for the European Union Prize for
Contemporary Architecture. Upon acceptance of the Fundacis proposal, in
2001, the Mies van der Rohe Award became the official architecture prize of the
European Union.

25
 I. How the Prize works
The European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture Mies van der Rohe
Award is a continuous process focused on how architects are thinking and
working in Europe today. For each two-year period, the following steps take
place:

1. Proposals are submitted by a group of independent experts, the Associations of

Architects and the Advisory Committee.

2. The Jury members meet to evaluate all the nominated works. They go through the
materials presented by the architects in different formats and a selection of shortlisted
and finalist works is made.

3. The nominated works are made public through the website, a publication and an
exhibition, encouraging people to learn about the recent built environment and become
part of it.

4. The Jury members visit the finalist works, meeting those who use the spaces, and they
make their first decisions about the Prize Winner and their final decision about the
Emerging Architect Special Mention.

5. Jury members participate in conferences and discussions on contemporary architecture

throughout Europe, creating links between institutions, academic centres and social
groups involved in architecture.

6. A ceremony gathers does people involved in the Prize: Jury members, Winners, Finalists,
Emerging Architect Special Mention Winners, Shortlisted authors, Experts, European
Commission representatives, Barcelona representatives and the clients of the works.

7. The award process is summarised in a catalogue publication and travelling exhibition

that features the works chosen by the Jury the Prize Winner, Special Mention, the
Finalists and the Shortlisted Works. All the nominated works are available for
consultation on the Prize database, http://miesarch.com/archive transforming each
edition into a biennial anthology of some of the best work being constructed in Europe.

8. The authors of the shortlisted works participate in seminars, discussions and lectures
and the works are presented in different architecture events worldwide.

9. For each edition, the Jury selects from among nominations submitted by the national
associations of Architects, a group of experts and the Advisory Committee a single work
to be granted the Prize and a single work to be granted the Special Mention, both for
their excellence in conceptual, technical and constructive terms.

The nominated works are not limited by scale or programme. The selection
of the Jury for each edition has included private homes and public housing;
museums and cultural installations; educational, health and sports facilities; as
well large-scale infrastructure projects and transport systems. The common
denominator is that these works all contribute to the construction of the
European city. In this sense, the Prize aspires to be a platform for investigation,

26
development and implementation of sustainable architectural practice that
promotes the social, cultural and economic benefits of sustainable growth.

The Prize consists of 60.000 and the Special Mention consists of 20.000
with both receiving a sculpture that evokes the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion of
Barcelona the symbol for this Prize: excellence and innovation in conceptual
and constructive terms.
