“I am really proud of how wide the international interest our competition generated. We wanted to reach the professionals of the future – architecture students and designers from all over the world, as well as inspire us to utilize Finnish Thermowood as part of ecological and sustainable cityscape renewal. And we really succeeded in these!”, commented Maija Masalin, VP Marketing and Product Management at Lunawood.

The winners of each category will be rewarded with a cash prize when the total amount of winnings reaches 15,000 euros. In addition, one work was given an honourable mention in each category. “All six top papers are stunning demonstrations of open-minded and innovative urban design, as well as true masterpieces of sustainable design.
