The jury has awarded the FAD Architecture Prize 2020 to the project 79 houses with Protection in the Central Hall of Sant Boi de Llobregat, by the architects Juan Herreros Guerra and Jens Richter (Estudio Herreros) and Mariona Benedito Ribelles and Martí Sanz Ausàs (Estudi d 'MIM-A architecture). The jury highlights in the work "the investigation, through the architectural project, on the ways to transit and inhabit the common spaces in the collective housing buildings, as well as their ambition to build a community, and not just a building."
He considers it an architectural project with "a purposeful spirit, attentive and complicit with the context, which creates spaces designed for life in common, in close harmony with the physical and human landscape in which it is inserted and to which it serves." The winning work is a public housing intervention of which the jury highlights that "it squeezes the potential of the place beyond the limits conventionally established in this type of project, generating relevant contributions and amendments to the ways of living and occupying the spaces aligned with contemporary paradigm shifts."

Finally, the MAD x MAD project has received the award for Ephemeral Interventions. The work of the architects Uriel Fogué Herreros, Eva Gil Lopesino and Carlos Palacios Rodriguez (Elii (architecture office)) has been chosen, according to the jury itself, for "the ability of this ephemeral intervention to put itself at the service of urban planning, a fact that it allows us to rethink and actively experiment with new uses in certain urban spaces, thus helping to implement real changes in the perception of the city and its dynamism."
In the youngest category of these awards, the jury of the 7th edition of the International FAD Awards, chaired by Mario Corea, has awarded the award to the Sáenz Valiente Building of the Torcuato Di Tella University in Buenos Aires, by Josep Ferrando Architecture.

FAD Thought and Criticism Award
Regarding the FAD Awards for Thought and Criticism, which this year celebrate their 15th edition, the award went to the book Viagem ao invisível: espaço, experiência, representação, a publication that "offers new original tools to rediscover space and culture architectural in which we live. "
The president of the jury, André Tavares, and the members Carolina B. García-Estévez and Marc Longaron, had to debate the proposals received "at a time of great uncertainty and difficulty, in which the consolidated foundations of our way of life in In the 21st century, there have been shocks and there is no clear future in sight for society. The choice of Viagem ao Invisível, among a wide range of works that are so stimulating and with enormous critical and intellectual potential, reflects this uncertainty. "
