RAHMENPROGRAMM

MATERIAL EXHIBIT by MATERIATEK

Breaking away from standardized solutions, tailor-made exhibition highlights the customization capabilities that manufacturers can offer to meet the growing demand for uniqueness in architectural design. Today, bespoke is no longer an inaccessible luxury but an opportunity to elevate your project.

PHOTO EXHIBIT by Architectuur Kortrijk

In October 2025, the Kortrijk Architecture Prize will be awarded once again. This competition is a collaboration between the City of Kortrijk, the Advisory Council for Architectural Heritage Kortrijk, and the association Architectuur Kortrijk. A professional jury will analyze the submitted projects and assess them from various perspectives. Always with one goal in mind: to inspire the people of Kortrijk to appreciate high-quality, locally rooted architecture that is accessible to everyone. In doing so, we not only spotlight local architectural talent but also emphasize the impact of thoughtful architecture on daily life.
