Light of Tomorrow” is the overall theme of the International VELUX Award.

 

An open-minded dialogue on the ”Light of Tomorrow” requires experimental approaches and free thinking. Therefore, the Award seeks to explore the boundaries of daylight in architecture, including aesthetics, functionality, sustainability, and the interaction between buildings and environment. The Award is not restricted to the use of VELUX products.

 

The Award contains no specific categories, but entries may focus on:

 

  • Concepts with focus on sunlight as natural resource for light and energy
  • The contribution of daylight to high visual quality and interior comfort that add quality to people’s lives and living conditions
  • The rethinking of daylight in urban living contexts, revitalizing urban tissue 
  • The importance of sunlight and daylight for sustainable architecture that takes into account the  rhythms and balances of nature
  • More abstract concepts like daylight vs. artificial light, day vs. night, in vs. out
