Another award for Terra Panonica facilities at the 37th Architecture Salon
The 37th Architecture Salon was held in the Museum of Applied Arts in April of 2015 and was marked by the slogan AfirmAcijA (Affirmation) which pointed out the importance of the Architect – Architecture – Action /Affirmation connection. The Salon organisers’ aim was to display, reassess, encompass and affirm the complex field of modern architecture with its numerous contradictions and aspects, because architecture “makes” and “takes up” space and has a long-lasting effect on the quality of life and relationships between inhabitants, as well as on the appearance of the city itself.
The award in the category “Architecture – reconstruction” for the affirmation of interdependence of architectural space and program was won by Dijana Novaković, Aleksandra Nikitin, Maja Trbović and Dušan Nenadović for Facility “C” and Facility “D”, Terra Panonica experience point and Terra Panonica (2012-2014).
The number of works nominated for the 37th Architecture Salon was 306 in all categories. The jury included 127 of them into the official selection, out of which 83 were competing for awards and were divided into six categories.
