In the Seafronts Category, the “Beach improvement and redevelopment of the harbour edge” in Porto do Son (A Coruña, Spain), by CREUSeCARRASCO and RVR Arquitectos, was celebrated for revitalizing the connection between the town and its waterfront. The project addresses previous disconnects between the port and community activities, facilitating a more cohesive interaction between the town’s civic life and the sea.

From the jury statement: The jury members especially applaud the fact that the project demonstrates deep understanding of the issues it addresses, including the need to protect and integrate architecture and seafront defences; the urgency of ensuring access to the water for all members of the community by connecting this experience as closely as possible with the urban fabric; the need to provide infrastructure that enhances pedestrian use of the waterfront; and the importance of safeguarding and restoring natural systems in a situation of urbanisation and climate change. This approach is handled with honesty, care, and thoroughgoing architectural expertise, resulting in a design that is both responsive to urban needs and respectful of natural systems.

RUBBLE RECYCLING

The “Park at the Warsaw Uprising Mound” is a collaboration between topoScape and Archigrest studios. The international jury praised the project’s unique approach to the memory of the site. The design integrates materiality deeply tied to the site’s history, using rubble from World War II that once formed the mound, repurposed into concrete for the park’s new structures. This transformation highlights the resilience of Warsaw’s past while providing a meaningful public space for present-day visitors.

From the jury statement: The jury particularly values the fact that the project has been able to embrace the memory of this place through its materiality. Hence, rubble from the Second World War that shapes the mound is transformed into concrete to create the park’s new structures. The design acknowledges that the space and the citizens’ experience become part of a collective memory, approaching history not through monumentalism but through a material, ecological and pedagogical lens. The park becomes a memorial in itself. The project stands out for recognizing the complexity of public space, which comprises multiple layers of meaning and interaction. By reconfiguring the traditional aesthetics of an urban park, it reimagines the park as a deep ecological entity, accepting invasive species and embracing an element of “unfinished” imagination that encourages user engagement and unveils a new aesthetic for urban parks.
