ABOUT ARCHIPRIX INTERNATIONAL

Archiprix International is a biennial competition. With each edition Archiprix International presents a new generation of the world's best architects, urbanists and landscape architects together with their graduation projects. The formula is simple. All university-level training colleges around the world are invited to take part by selecting and submitting their one and only best graduation project. We send invitation letter to all 1700 registered universities in spring of the even years. Individual graduates cannot apply themselves, only graduation projects finished in the last two years selected by a university as their best graduation project are accepted. Archiprix International presents the submitted projects on her website, in a book, exhibitions and films. It forms the largest presentation of graduation work and offers unrivalled insight into current trends in design education globally and architecture generally.

With the world's best graduation projects Archiprix International presents each edition again a new generation of the worlds most talented emerging architects, urbanists and landscape architects, who are ready and equiped to tackle all imaginable contemporary assignments.

The initiative reflects rapid international developments in the design disciplines. Recent decades have seen an explosive growth in the scale of international contact, resulting in lively exchanges world-wide. Increasing numbers of designers work on commissions abroad, professional journals are published on an international scale, and training colleges are becoming more and more international in their orientation.

Archiprix International forms an expanding international platform for training colleges and newly graduated, talented designers. It spotlights international trends in architecture, urbanism and landscape architecture and brings designers together.

An independent jury rewards the very best submissions with the Hunter Douglas Awards. The aim of the awards is to stimulate the introduction of starting, talented designers into the world of professional practice.

Archiprix International is an initiative of the Archiprix foundation. The Archiprix foundation is a non-profit organisation and owns all the rights (including Intellectual Property rights) to Archiprix International. It is a cooperation of the recognized schools for higher education teaching architecture, urban design and landscape architecture in Delft, Eindhoven, Wageningen, Amsterdam, Arnhem, Groningen, Maastricht, Rotterdam, Tilburg, the Netherlands.
