BDA award for architecture criticism
With the BDA Prize for Architectural Criticism, the Bund Deutscher Architekten (BDA) honors the committed work of journalists and publicists who, with serious and constant endeavor, critically accompany the design of the built environment and make its importance as an important social moment publicly visible.
The award has been presented every three years since 2006 and is endowed with 5000 euros.
