The shortlist for the Davidson Prize will be published next April with 3 candidates, while the winning team will be announced next June. The 3 shortlisted teams will also receive an additional €6,010 to enable them to make a short visual presentation to the jury. The winner of the prize will receive a final award of €12,000.
This year there will also be a People's Choice Award, an award chosen by the public where anyone can vote and sponsored by Vitra Bathrooms.
The judges declare that the selected projects stand out for their creative design vision in connection with an urban and rural environment. One of the elements that has been found across the board in all the shortlisted entries has been to engage with the issues of inequality in marginalised groups, the strong core ageing population and children. As a result, we found project ideas with intergenerational housing models, sustainable renovations or even new proposals for the integration of social networks to support cities and towns.

“There wasn’t a single bad submission, nothing to discard outright. Each submission raised great discussions amongst the judges. I’m impressed with how the teams have expressed their ideas both with strong written statements and interesting visuals. It really makes me want to see more.”
Marie Chamillard, Director of the Alan Davidson Foundation.
