ar+d emerging architecture, international award The Architectural Review and d line international (the distinguished Danish architectural ironmongery firm) are launching an annual international award to celebrate the talent of a generation of architects as yet largely unrecognized. We are looking to celebrate excellence in executed work ranging from buildings and interiors, to temporary structures, exhibition and product design. The ar+d award will have total prize-money of £10 000 annually, and winning schemes will be specially published in the AR. ELEGIBILITY It will be open to all architects and designers whose qualifications are recognized by their national accreditation organization, provided that they are 45 or younger. The age has been chosen on the basis that many cannot develop an original vision before that time, either because of the long education and training period, or because of lack of opportunity. With the latter in mind, entries will be accepted from people working for others, provided that a principal in the employing office provides written evidence guaranteeing that the work is that of the entrant(s). Groups or partnerships will be eligible to enter, provided that all members are of the right age, and that they are all named in the submission. PRIZES AND PUBLICATIONS Prizes will be given in several categories. So that the range of entries can remain as wide as possible, the categories will not be determined beforehand, but decided on by the jury. Besides buildings, entries on interiors and on manufactured products (for instance furniture or light fittings) are encouraged. There will be an overall prize of £5000; its recipient will be chosen from the winners of the individual categories. All winning schemes will be published in the AR, and so will others chosen by the jury. The overall winner will receive a trophy by Knud Holscher, who has long been the principal designer for d line. Entrants may make more than one submission if they wish. JURY The jury will be: Billie Tsien, of Williams & Tsien, New York David Chipperfield, of David Chipperfield Architects, London Massimiliano Fuksas, of Massimiliano Fuksas Architetto, Paris, Vienna and Rome Theo Bjerg, Professor at the Danish Royal Academy Peter Davey, Editor of the AR ENTRIES Entries should be mounted on not more than two A2 sized boards, which should carry drawings, a brief written description (in English) and some photographs (in either colour or black and white). The material must be capable of reproduction by the normal four colour printing process. The AR reserves the right to ask winners for further material for publication purposes, once the jury has made its decisions. Entries should be properly packaged and clearly marked ‘ar+d’ on the outside. They should be sent to THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, 151 ROSEBERY AVENUE, LONDON EC1R 4GB, UNITED KINGDOM. To ensure anonymity, all entries must be accompanied by a sealed envelope which should contain the names of the entrants. On receipt by the organizers, both envelope and boards will be given an identical individual number. After the jury’s decisions, the envelopes of the winning schemes will be opened and the names read. TIMETABLE Entries should be received by The Architectural Review by 6 September this year. Evidence that an entry has been despatched by that date will be accepted. The jury will meet shortly afterwards and make its decisions. Prizewinners will quickly be informed. Results will be specially published in the November 1999 AR. A prize-giving ceremony will be held in London in October. WEBSITE http://www.arplusd.com/
