Sustainable Architecture

The International Award for Sustainable Architecture, now in its sixth edition, arose from the important international manifestation of the decennial of the foundation of the School of Architecture of Ferrara, held in 2003. Conceived and promoted by the School itself, with the financial support of the Fassa Bortolo company, the Award is intended to redirect attention to the necessity of reexamining the relationship between the process of construction and the habitat through the pursuit of compatibility among economic productivity, the safeguarding of resources and the quality of the environment.

The spirit and the goal are to contribute to the research of a system of development in the building sector, which represents one of the fields of human activity with the greatest impact on the environment, that is more sustainable than our current model, which has lead to a state of deterioration and pollution, bringing us to the verge of a global crisis of the Earth’s entire ecological system.

The Award therefore provides incentives for and promotes architecture that is in greater harmony with the environment and designed for the needs of man, capable of satisfying the needs of our generations without limiting those of the future by the indiscriminate consumption of resources and the production of pollution.

The Award was created from an understanding of the importance of sharing with a large public the results of research in the field of civil construction, recognizing in architecture the fundamental role of environmental qualification, education and social promotion, as well as the responsibility of representing the concrete expression of cultural development and of the society’s collective interests.

The Award is given annually to a work designed by individual architects or architectural or engineering firms that best represents the fundamental principles upheld by the Award. The work must have been realized in the course of the last five years. In addition, two Special Mentions are awarded to projects considered outstanding for particular aspects.

The Award is also open to the world of Academia, hosting a section dedicated to projects developed as degree theses on themes pertaining to the Award’s objectives, thus providing a space for the important ideas and works that arise from the breeding grounds of future professionals.

Applications are now being accepted for the sixth edition of the Award; the deadline for participation is 31 December 2008 for the application and 31 January 2009 for the submission of materials.

The winning project and those held worthy of honorable mention or recognition are divulged through the Award’s official website at www.premioarchitettura.it; all of the information regarding participation, including the application form can be found on the website.
