When proposing the award to Carme Pinós, the jury especially highlights the solidity of her career, being both prolific and excellent, always impregnated by a great creative power. A creative process that runs through the entire architectural work, culminating in an outstanding execution of the project.
The jury emphasizes the social responsibility and sustainability pursued in its projects and also makes mention of its transversality as a professional, promoting the dialogue of architecture with other disciplines and demonstrating a great informative capacity both within and outside our borders.
The candidacy of the architect, at the proposal of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando, the Arquia Foundation, the E.T.S.A. of Valencia and the Higher Council of Colleges of Architects of Spain (CSCAE), was chosen by the jury convened on November 30. Subsequently, it was made known to the Minister of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda, who has personally given the news to the winner and, after that, will award the award by Ministerial Order.
The National Architecture Prize, endowed with 60,000 euros, is awarded on the proposal of a jury made up of outstanding professionals, under the honorary presidency of the head of the Department, Raquel Sánchez.
