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

The Paul Bode Award will be presented in Kassel for the second time in 2022. This year, the prestigious award is entitled "Experiment Kassel Harbor: Visions for a Socially-Productive Neighborhood."

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

The prize winners will be determined 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 festive public award ceremony will take place at 6 p.m. on the same day. This will be followed at 8 p.m. by the opening of the exhibition of the competition entries, which will be on display until November 17 in 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 Award promotes experimental and forward-looking concepts and ideas of 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 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 housing.
