Mies van der Rohe Award 2024

The winners of the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award for 2024 have been announced in Brussels. The Study Pavilion on the campus of the Technical University of Braunschweig (Germany), by Gustav Düsing and Max Hacke, both with practices in Berlin, has won in the Architecture category. The jury chaired by Frédéric Druot highlights its “capacity to challenge the limitations of and preconceptions about sustainability, creating a welcoming and cheerful environment for study, collaboration, and encounters. More than a building, it can be understood as a versatile system that fuses technological advances with the principles of flexibility and reuse.”

The Emerging Architecture Prize has gone to the Gabriel García Márquez Library in Barcelona, by SUMA Arquitectura, a Madrid firm founded by Elena Orte and Guillermo Sevillano. In the jury’s words: “the Library contributes to transforming the neighborhood, offering itself as a new public space that is both outdoor and indoor. This wooden structure unfolds as a rich sequence of monumental and domestic spaces that welcome neighbors and citizens in general, providing comfortable places for study, teamwork, and community engagement.”

The two winning works have been selected out of a list of 362 works in 38 countries. The awarding ceremony will be held on 14 May at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona.
