Archiprix International Montevideo 2009: The Worlds Best Graduation Projects: Architecture, Urban Design, Landscape Architecture

Every two years, Archiprix International invites all university-level courses in the field of architecture, urban planning and landscape architecture to select their best graduation projects and submit these for participation. The DVD that goes with the book contains the full crop, whereas the book presents a cross-section of the projects, including the nominees and winners chosen by an independent jury, and the favourites chosen by the participants themselves, supplemented by a representative selection that offers a picture of the range of designs and the graphical distribution across all continents. In addition, the book contains the jury report as well as the personal data of the projects' designers. Archiprix International was first organized in Rotterdam, the home base of Archiprix International, in 2001. In 2009, Archiprix International is to be held in Montevideo, with the faculty of architecture of the university of Montevideo, Uruguay, as the main partner. Archiprix International provides a structural platform for educational courses in architecture, urban planning and landscape architecture, and brings together and supports newly-graduated, talented designers at the onset of their career.
