The Brick Award is an internationally renowned architecture prize for modern and innovative brick architecture. 

For this tenth event, 789 projects from 53 countries have been submitted and 50 finalists chosen, including 7 Belgian projects.

 

The Brick Award consists of five categories. A prize is awarded in each of them, in addition to the overall winner. The winning projects in the five categories 'Feeling at home', 'Living together', 'Sharing public spaces', 'Working together' and 'Building outside the box' as well as the overall winner of the Award will be announced at the official Brick Award ceremony in Vienna in June 2022.

"The development of recent years continues and the focus remains on resource-efficient construction. This concerns both highly innovative structures as well as those built in the traditional way with local materials and craft techniques. Re-use is just as present as the imaginative use of bricks. This almost playful approach leads to concise, memorable designs. The weighting of the different categories is almost balanced, showing that brick is represented in all building typological areas", explains Heimo Scheuch, CEO of Wienerberger AG.
