Evaluation criterion

How and where is concrete best used? What are the new, material-specific contributions or combinations with other building materials? We are looking for outstanding buildings from the fields of architecture and civil engineering that are characterized by their open, interdisciplinary and appropriate approach to the use of concrete. Particular attention is paid to a coherent approach to the location, the design and spatial concept, a well thought-out supporting structure and sustainability in a comprehensive sense.
