Focus Open 2016: Baden-Württemberg International Design Award for the Mathematics Faculty Building of Karlsruhe University—Focus Special Mention
The Baden-Württemberg International Design Award, also known as Focus Open, is one of the most prestigious German design awards covering international projects. The six expert jury members assess entries in accordance with the degree of innovation and the quality of the conceptual design, but also apply criteria such as ergonomic design, functionality, user experience, and ecology. In this way Focus Open invites a cross-section of contemporary design projects and, every year, establishes a new benchmark for professional design. The Mathematics Faculty building of Karlsruhe University by ingenhoven architects was awarded the "Focus Special Mention”.
