Voting for most beautiful aluminum facade started

Four finalists, one winner. And who that will be is up to the public. The professional jury chose four projects from almost 70 entries. They will compete with each other in June for the Reynaers Project Award 2025. The public will determine the winner of this architecture prize. Which project will be the successor to the 2024 winner? Then Amadeiro in 's-Hertogenbosch - a design by HILBERINKBOSCH Architecten, Bedaux de Brouwer Architecten, and Voss Architecture - took the public's prize.

The architecture award has a rich history and has existed since 1997. Every year, system house Reynaers Aluminium rewards projects in which the application of the aluminum facade in the design receives special attention. The focus is on detailing and execution. The professional jury evaluated the entries and chose four finalists.

Who are the four finalists? They are, in no particular order:

To comprehensively introduce the public to the finalists, they have been professionally portrayed. The architect introduces his project. Architecture critic Jeroen Junte gives a tour of it. The podcasts also provide additional insight into the architect's thoughts to arrive at his design. Getting to know the facade builder better is possible through the interview with the director who gives an insight into his company.

Voting through June 30
From Tuesday, June 3, the public can vote for their favorite via the special website projectprijs.reynaers.nl.

Donation to good architecture cause
