Investors and architectural practice would get stuck in a groove without young architect competitions
It is not easy nowadays for young architects to start a professional career. At the same time, we know well just how necessary their vigorous energy is. The
Young Architect Award competition offers young architects an opportunity to showcase their qualities, enabling the public to get acquainted with the extent of
contemporary architectural works. This makes us happy that we can participate in the competition as jury members. The fact is: architectural practice as well as
investors would get stuck in a groove without such competitions for young architects.
