Paul Bode Prize 2022 - award ceremony, lecture and exhibition opening

The Paul Bode Prize will be awarded for the second time in Kassel in 2022. This year, the prestigious award is entitled "Experiment Kasseler Hafen: Visions for a socially productive district."

The Paul Bode Prize for students of the Department of Architecture, Urban Planning and Landscape Design (ASL), which is endowed with 10,000 euros, is sponsored by the Nassauische Heimstätte | Wohnstadt Group and awarded by the University of Kassel (ASL Department).

The winners will be announced on November 3. The seven-member jury consists of representatives of the Nassauische Heimstätte | Wohnstadt Group, the City of Kassel and four other jurors.

The public award ceremony will take place on the same day at 6 pm. This will be followed at 8 p.m. by the opening of the exhibition of the competition entries, which can be seen until November 17 at the Studierendenhaus, Universitätsplatz 10.

Before the prize is announced, there will be keynote speeches on housing by the two jurors Marc Frohn (FAR Architects, Berlin; Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and Tim Heide (Heide & von Beckerath Architekten, Berlin).

The Paul Bode Prize promotes experimental and forward-looking concepts and ideas from students of architecture, landscape architecture and landscape planning as well as urban and regional planning at the University of Kassel. It is dedicated to contemporary issues of housing construction in Hesse with a focus on Kassel and its region. The student competition is held every two years. The Kassel architect Paul Bode (1903 to 1978) is considered an important architect of the post-war period for places of assembly, such as cinemas, theaters, cafés, restaurants, but also for residential construction.
