Submit your project

The competition organizers are looking for projects that are characterized by innovative details in a convincing overall concept. The main prize comes with EUR 5,000. The jury will also confer additional awards to particularly impressive projects. The Readers' Prize, first awarded in 2012, will once again be awarded this year following an online vote by DETAIL readers and Internet users. 

Between 1 June and 31 July 2014 architects and designers can submit their projects online at www.detail.de. After the deadline, the DETAIL editorial team will nominate the best works and present them to the jury as well as to readers to vote on. 

The winners will be awarded in the autumn of 2014 at a formal award ceremony in Berlin. An exhibition of the award-winning works will be held during the world-leading BAU 2015 trade fair, which will take place in Munich in January 2015. 

The declared aim of the DETAIL Prize is to highlight the importance of architecture for society, to strengthen the role of architects in public life, and to foster networking between architects, industry figures, builders, and policy-makers.
