The judges were looking for realisations in which the overall design concept and the detailing were brought together in a coherent way. Out of 337 submissions from 42 locations around the world, the jury selected the best projects for the DETAIL Prize and the two special prizes DETAIL inside and DETAIL structure. The chosen projects are future-oriented, innovative and pioneering, and consequently in the jury's view display outstanding cultural and technical qualities. 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 DETAIL Prize as an international architecture prize is awarded every two years by DETAIL in cooperation with BAU 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. Between 16 January and 21 January 2017, the prize-winning projects will be presented at an exhibition during BAU 2017 in Munich.
