The LafargeHolcim Awards, 2019

The LafargeHolcim Awards seek leading projects of professionals as well as bold ideas from the Next Generation that combine sustainable construction solutions with architectural excellence.

The LafargeHolcim Awards promote innovation in sustainable construction through a series of regional and global competitions. Prizes at both levels total USD 2 million for each three-year competition cycle.

Independent juries hosted by associated universities of the Foundation evaluate the submissions:

Members of the Awards jury for Europe
Members of the Awards jury for North America
Members of the Awards jury for Latin America
Members of the Awards jury for Middle East Africa
Members of the Awards jury for Asia Pacific

The “target issues” for sustainable construction serve as evaluation criteria:

Innovation and transferability – Progress
Ethical standards and social inclusion – People
Resource and environmental performance – Planet
Economic viability and compatibility – Prosperity
Contextual and aesthetic impact – Place

Eligibility
The Main Awards category is open to architects, engineers, planners, project owners, builders and construction firms for projects at an advanced stage of design with high probability of execution. The Next Generation category for young professionals and students up to 30 years of age seeks visions and bold ideas. In both categories, execution of the project may not have started before January 1, 2019.
