NEB Prizes 2021: All Applications

The specific purpose of the Guide is to establish guidelines for composition for constructions and buildings, which favor a adequate landscape integration and thus contribute to greater quality of the Galician landscape. Those guidelines will focus on the types of most recommended materials for the different elements of the constructions and buildings, as well as in the ranges and pallets of colors more congruent with the characteristics of the contours in the to be used.. 

We are a community of environmentally-aware creatives and artists who acquired an abandoned complex of buildings, and started to reconstruct it into a cultural and creative centre. The beginnings resulted in huge piles of construction waste. We found a solution to minimize the waste disposal, maximize recycling and reusing it on site - we turned our rubble into water-permeable and water-storing surfaces around the building where the waste came from. The result is a lively venue in a public park.

Project name: ESADEN_European Sustainable Architecture Design Education Network

Creation of a network that communicates the objectives of sustainable and environmentally responsible design of architecture in its environment throughout Europe and spreads and discusses sustainable environmental design concepts to a broad group of interested parties.

INSPIRATION - GABRIELLE CHANEL
This project aims to superpower the globalisation of Europe’s highest-potential WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS together with the continent’s EMERGING WOMEN ARTISTS across diverging ecosystems. The thematic diver behind the exhibition is the five SDGs voted on by each country. Each objective is identified visually via a work of art, each of which is represented by two women.

The C2C LAB in Berlin is the world's first comprehensive refurbishment of an existing entity according to Cradle to Cradle criteria. In the most unlikely of buildings - a 1986 Berlin plattenbau - C2C NGO created a living lab, educational center and head office with only healthy and circular C2C materials. The LAB is modular and removable. lts interior consists only of recyclable or biodegradable materials. It brings changemakers together and accelerates the transition into a circular future.

Great visions should start on a small scale, but all too often people’s everyday experiences play a subordinate role in this. This creative potential was awakened in “A Fair Land Pforzheim”. A temporary garden art project was created on Pforzheim’s Waisenhausplatz as a place for social exchange and togetherness. Everything that happened in this sustainable model village had value: socially, ecologically, economically and certainly aesthetically.

NEST is an ecological façade system which would be made through sustainable ceramic/clay 3d printing techniques. Façade panels are tailored to create specific environment that will allow the passive or low maintenance growth of the plants or places to nest for desirable species of insects, birds and bats, while maintaining the high performance of the building and healthier micro-climate. We offer a solution that either upgrades existing buildings or is incorporated into new build.

“We commit to include the indifferent in solving the climate crisis”

An immersive exhibition motivated by the urgency of creating a commitment to the environment, by companies, communities and individuals. And, because we recognize that many areas contribute to this balance, or lack of it, we consciously chose to address 5 (five) crucial areas: materials, food, energy, transport and nature.

Our documentary attempts to capture the reality of food waste in each part of the supply chain.

The flowing design is based on a modern interpretation of Japanese culinary culture and tempts with its atmosphere. The organic structure consisting of felt- and spruce fins flows through the dining area and playfully covers ceilings, walls, and columns. The room becomes a perceptible sculpture with the guest in the center. Following the Japanese aesthetics, contrasts between dark furniture and bright spruce fins create an even balance.

In the framework of Lille Metropole World Design Capital 2020 a design methodology as driver for urban transition was created through a large “Proof of concept” competition. Thanks to this approach a progressive co-constructed renovation project is rolled out on the Grand boulevard, an emblematic infrastructure of 14,5km X 50m where cars gradually became predominant, in order to transform it into a resilient and sustainable public space welcoming a healthy intergenerational mix of users.
