AMO Prize 2019

France-Belgium

In 2019, the AMO association is taking a new step: it releases an annual prize and opens it up to Belgian projects. During European elections, this edition of the AMO Prize puts 5 new transversal categories in place — "Greater metamorphosis", "Most daring execution", "Most creative typology", "Most productive place", "Best urban catalyst" — and completes them by the TransEuropArchi Prize. Because this 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall reminds us that there are still walls to be abolished and that the invisible ones are often the most tenacious. Opening up to Belgium for this European premiere is also an opportunity to remind Belgian everyday architecture is full of quality, that cities are not always metropolis and that potentials for reinvention are endless.
