If you have any questions or are unclear about your rights regarding your personal data, you can contact us at any time at the following e-mail address: [email protected].

IX. Cookies
We use cookies on our website to enable the use of certain functions of the website, to analyse how users use our website and to provide certain third-party services.
These are small text files that are stored on your computer. Most of the cookies we use are deleted from your hard drive at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your computer and enable us to recognise your computer during your next visit (so-called persistent cookies). In addition, cookies from third parties are also used on our website.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. However, we would like to point out that in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
If you do not wish our cookies to be stored on your computer, please deactivate the storage of cookies in your browser for our website or set your browser so that cookies are generally not stored on your computer. You can also use your browser to delete cookies that have already been stored.
We have no influence on the further processing of the personal data collected by the respective operators. Furthermore, it is not possible for us to determine the extent to which, where and for how long the data is stored by the social networks, the extent to which the social networks comply with existing deletion obligations, which evaluations and links to the data are carried out by them and to whom the data is passed on by the social networks.
Deactivating the use of cookies may require a permanent cookie to be stored on your computer. If this cookie is subsequently deleted by you, you must perform the deactivation again.
The following categories of cookies are used on our website:
I. Session cookies
To make it easier for you to browse our website, we use a so-called session ID (session identifier), which is assigned to each visitor at the beginning of each use of our website. This session ID is used by our server to recognise you or your computer/browser as the same visitor, even though your IP address may have changed in the meantime. This session ID enables the assignment of several related requests of a user to one session. The session ID cookie we use is only valid until the end of a session. It is automatically deleted when you close your browser.
II. Persistent cookies
We use the Pardot Marketing Automation System, a special software for collecting and evaluating the use of a website by website visitors and for sending marketing communication (newsletters, event invitations, etc.). When visiting this website, Pardot captures your click path and creates an individual usage profile using a pseudonym. For this purpose, cookies are used, which allow recognition of your browser.
However, you can deactivate the creation of pseudoymised user profiles at any time by configuring your Internet browser so that cookies of the domain “pardot.com” are not accepted. However, this may result in some limitations in the features and usability of our offering. In order to provide you with an offer or product information that is as interesting as possible and to the extent your consent to it, it is possible to merge your personal data with the data of the pseudonymised user profile via the set cookies, if you – for example by ordering a newsletter or completing a form – provide personal information. You may opt-out to this use of your personal information, such as name and address information, in writing an email to [email protected] or by clicking the unsubscribe link in any newsletter or other marketing communication at any time. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

Francine Houben is the Founding CEO and Creative Director of Mecanoo architecten. Francine has held professorships in the Netherlands and abroad. From 2002 to 2006 she was City Architect of Almere. In 2001 she published her seminal manifesto about architecture: ‚Composition, Contrast, Complexity’ and as curator of the First International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam in 2003, she brought the theme of the mobility of aesthetics to the forefront of international design consciousness.

Dorte Mandrup is a Danish architect with more than 25 years of experience. She graduated from the Aarhus School of Architecture, Denmark in 1991. Eight years later she founded her Copenhagen based studio where she continues to be Creative Director and inspire an international team of 70 dedicated people. Studies in both sculpture and natural sciences have influenced Dorte Mandrup’s approach to architecture, which has always been ‘hands-on’ and defined by a formal restlessness materializing in deep, contextual analysis and explorative prototyping.
As a humanist with a distinct nonconformist mindset, Dorte Mandrup is well known for her commitment to the development of the architectural practice and her frequent participation in public debates. Receiving national and international acclaim for her work, in 2018 Dorte headlined at the curated international exhibition at La Biennale di Venezia. Dorte is Vice Chairman of the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, member of the Historic Buildings Council in Denmark, Chair of the prestigious Mies van der Rohe Award 2019, Adjunct Professor at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and holds frequent visiting professorships abroad, in 2018 at Cornell University College of Architecture, Art, and Planning.

It also includes ongoing research projects and social initiatives in an urban context. The award targets innovative urban developments that are in progress or have been realised in the last four years (15 January 2017 until 15 May 2021) as well as ongoing research into the improved implementation of sustainability and humanity. Aiming to encourage an emerging generation of researchers and practitioners in architecture and urban design, the award in this category seeks to facilitate and promote inventive urban projects. Furthermore, it targets interdisciplinary work to address urban challenges in more efficient and intelligent ways. This can also include new practices or inventive methods to optimise planning and building processes. Individuals or groups from university contexts, architects, urban and landscape planners, NGOs and private or public initiatives are eligible.
Special Prize for Innovation (Tridonic)
This special prize is dedicated to outstanding innovations and smart resourceful solutions in the built environment or urban infrastructure. It addresses creative concepts that serve human needs and reduce environmental impacts. Technological innovations could include, for example, new materials, sensors, intelligent controls, renewable means of energy generation or smart networking of the different trades such as HVAC (heating, ventilation, air-conditioning) and lighting. The award also honours initiatives to empower a group of actors or citizens to work together to address urban challenges in more efficient and intelligent ways. This can also include original practices or inventive methods to optimise (building) processes and mechanisms. The Special Prize for Innovation is chosen from the projects submitted in the two categories.

Aedes Architecture Forum
Aedes was founded in 1980 in Berlin as the first private architecture gallery in Europe. The Architecture Forum Aedes has become one of the most successful institutions internationally for communicating architectural culture, urban design, and related topics. Aedes is associated with the great names of the architectural avant-garde and offers an excellent platform for new generations of architects. Aedes strives to focus public attention on the cultures of building and architecture, presenting architectural visions, sustainable urban concepts, and innovative projects in urban planning and landscape architecture. In addition to staging ten to sixteen exhibitions per year, Aedes promotes dialogue with outside experts and an interested public through symposia, lecture series, and discussions.
