PRESS RELEASE 16 march 2007
On 16th March in Paris, at the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine the official presentation of the third edition of
THE BIENNIAL INTERNATIONAL "BARBARA CAPPOCHIN” PRIZE FOR ARCHITECTURE 2007 Edition
 
The International Biennial “Barbara Cappochin” Prize for Architecture is launched in Paris

CREATED BY THE BARBARA CAPPOCHIN FOUNDATION AND THE ORDER OF ARCHITECTS, PLANNERS, LANDSCAPERS, AND CONSERVATIONISTS OF THE PROVINCE OF PADUA IN ITALY, IN ORDER TO PROMOTE RESEARCH AND STUDY ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ARCHITECT AND ARCHITECTURE.
 
The purpose of the Foundation is to remember Barbara, a young student of the Faculty of Architecture I.U.A.V of Venice, by promoting high quality architecture. This quality can only be obtained if the three essential figures, the Contractor, the Designer and the Constructor, work together to identify that thin line that connects life and architecture, by focussing on choices, ideas and materials in order to attain high quality results. This is the objective of our society.

Twenthy-sixth edition for a sustainable develpment
There are several different categories, from international to regional analysis. The prize is realised in collaboration with the U.I.A. (International Union of Architects) and the C.N.A.P.P.C. ( Italian Council of Architects, Planners, Landscapers, Conservationists) and in conformity with UNESCO regulations (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) with the aim of encouraging designers and constructers to value quality when making design and construction choices.
 
The prize aims to:
-           promote the quality of contemporary architecture projects in relation to the territory, with the aim of
            stimulating debate in order to compare international architecture with local architecture;
-           encourage citizens to take an interest in architecture by considering it as part of their collective
            cultural heritage;
-           recognise the role of the project and its construction through its protagonists.
 
In addition, a Special Award will be presented for the first time in 2007 for attention to architectural and constructional detail; in particular for the ability to realise innovative elements that are both functionally and aesthetically outstanding
 
Deadline for participation: 20 July 2007
