- When evaluating competition projects, the Jury took into consideration creativity of architects, taking care of details, message, lyricism as well as the social aspect. - says Sabina Sujew – We were strongly impressed by the projects and that is why the choice was so difficult. The last stage of the debate provoked the greatest discussion, and ultimately the most viable project won that can come into being in any place of the world where garages are. Projects we evaluated show that architects come out with standard architectural solutions and begin to pay strong attention to the social aspect.

 

FAKRO congratulates the winners and thanks all the participants for submitted projects. We encourage to continuous following FAKRO activities and participation in the next editions of the contest.
