THE WINNERS
CATEGORY SMALL, KAAF – BIOAROMA MUSEUM & EXPERIENCE STORE
category medium, Constanti Architects – 316 Residences
The 316 RESIDENCES by Constanti Architects received the unanimous accolade in the Medium Category for its use of precoated metal panels, which defines the project’s architectural language. The project leverages the unique properties of these materials to craft a series of dynamic spaces, where the volumetric interplay and pivotal alignment of each floor underscore the innovative use of materials. This approach not only enhances the building’s facade but also serves as a testament to the potential of precoated metal panels in crafting durable, aesthetically pleasing, and contextually appropriate architectural solutions.
category large, PILA – Piraeus Tower
In the Large Category, the jury awarded the PIRAEUS TOWER by PILA Architects. The PIRAEUS TOWER was celebrated for its striking visual impact and innovative use of coated metal in architectural detailing. The project distinguishes itself through a sophisticated blend of design innovation and practical application, achieving not only aesthetic excellence but also sustainability. The challenges posed by the existing structure were skillfully navigated, combining high-rise engineering with architectural creativity to transform the building into a prominent landmark.
