This year the DETAIL Prize is being awarded for the seventh time. The international architecture prize is awarded every two years by DETAIL in cooperation with BAU 2017 as the premium partner, Josef Gartner GmbH as the main sponsor, conceptual partners from the political arena, and industry sponsors. This year for the first time, construction software manufacturer Orca is also on board as a sponsor.
The DETAIL Prize 2016 highlights opportunities, challenges and potentials for the entire construction industry and in particular for architecture. The aim of the award is to strengthen architecture in public debate, strengthen the role of architects in public, and strengthen networking among architects, industrialists, developers and politicians.
The judges were looking for realizations in which the overall design concept and the detailing were brought together in a coherent way. The DETAIL Prize is awarded to future-oriented, innovative and pioneering projects from different disciplines that have outstanding architectural and technical qualities. The main DETAIL Prize comes with prize money of EUR 3,000, and the DETAIL inside and DETAIL structure Prizes with prize money of EUR 1,000 respectively.
On 19 July 2016, the jury members Peter Ippolito (Ippolito Fleitz Group), Gilles Retsin (Gilles Retsin Architecture), Mike Schlaich (schlaich bergermann partner), Enrique Sobejano (Nieto Sobejano Arquitectos) and Daniel Lischer (alp architektur lischer partner ag) chose this year's prize-winners from the 337 submissions.
The winners of the DETAIL Prize 2016 are Sean Godsell Architects with their project MPavilion in Melbourne, Australia. Second place goes to Brandlhuber+, Emde, Burlon + Riegler Riewe Architekten for their project St. Agnes in Berlin. In third place are Morger Partner Architekten for their project Hilti Art Foundation/Huber Uhren Schmuck in Vaduz, Liechtenstein.

Read what the architects have to say about their projects:
Stone building in the village center of Scaiano, Switzerland
Wespi de Meuron Romeo Achitekten, Caviano The central architectural goal of the conversion of a historic stone building in the village centre was to emphasise the force of the solid stone walls and the archaic simplicity of the historic building’s volume and to give it a new radiance.
The new modifications do not contrast with the existing building, but rather blend in with it to create a new whole consisting of old and new. Vote here for this project.
