Submission deadline: 1 December 2011

The international biannual "Zumtobel Group Award for Sustainability and Humanity in the Built Environment", curated and organised by Aedes Berlin will be celebrated in Autumn 2012 for the third time. It will honour

• outstanding architectural and engineering performances in sustainable solutions, and
• pioneering social and humanitarian initiatives and research projects in the built environment

that make a notable contribution to a liveable, sustainable and equitable future. The Award has two categories "Built Environment" and "Research and Initiative". In each category one winning project and four nominees will be selected. The two prize-winning projects will be honoured with a total prize fund of Euro 140,000.

Given the environment’s dramatic response to exploitation and pollution the issue of sustainability is loaded with social as well as economic significance. Especially in the built environment, architects, urban planners, engineers and related disciplines are asked to engage with these challenges by combining scientific knowledge, technical innovation and an abundance of design ideas with a strong sense of responsibility and courage. The award acts as stimulus for new developments and concepts within the built environment that meet current and future demands for improved urban living conditions and energy needs.
