Announvement of finalists: February 2020
Award: March 11th, 2020 during Munich Creative Business Week

“Make, Use, Waste” – the prevailing linear way of thinking and acting powered by consumerism puts severe pressure on the earth’s natural resources. How can this pattern be changed and how can modern life and our societies become more circular? Currently one of the most resource consuming sectors is the building and construction sector.

The Hans Sauer Award 2020 „Designing Circularity in the Built Environment“ focuses on changing practices in the system that produce the “built environment” of cities and landscapes. The interdisciplinary competition not only wants to reward building new structures, but will also honor tools and methods that deal with the circular transformation of the already enormous quantity of existing constructions and/or structures. You will find more information about categories and registration details attached.

The Hans Sauer Award 2020 addresses everybody who contributes to circularity in the built environment.

On March 11th, 2020 six successful finalists, three projects from every country, will be invited to the Award Ceremony in Munich during Munich Creative Business Week. An expert jury will select the award winners and distribute the award money of € 20.000,00 in total. Additionally, all prize winners get the chance to take part in an exchange program to visit either the Netherlands or Germany and learn more about best practice examples and the winning teams.
