A special focus is placed on students’ projects that have been developed in cooperation between the disciplines of architecture and civil engineering.

The “Blue Award 2016” competition is organized by the Vienna University of Technology, the Institute of Architecture and Design, the Department for Spatial and Sustainable Design and the registered Society of Architecture and Spatial Design.
