描述
This 500-page book contains the largest number of works ever nominated for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Awards. These 532 works correspond to those of the last three years. This great selection of architecture is presented in dictionary format, through plans, photographs and texts. All of them are arranged alphabetically, from A to Z, by the name that their authors or clients decided to give them. Two more entries are added to this provision: the names of all the cities, towns or places where these architectural works are located and each of the names of the studios of the authors. It is a format that offers a compact and synthetic layout, allowing intuitive reading and research. The plans, photographs and texts of the selected works, finalists and winners are expanded and developed on more pages so that they can be understood more deeply. A collection of previously unpublished texts accompanies these shortlisted and winning architectural works: In “Entanglements,” Ellis Woodman writes about Z33 House of Contemporary Art, Design and Architecture; Stephen Bates writes about the 85 Social Housing in Cornellà in his piece “For the love of rooms”; independent experts Anna Yudina and Beate Engelhorn reflect on the Railway Farm and Frizz 23 respectively, while Roberto Bosi writes about the emerging finalist, the Enrico Fermi School in his essay titled ‘New Thresholds of Education’. Referring to the two winning entries , we find “Sociability on a Grand Scale” by Rowan Moore on the winning work, Town House – Kingston University, and Ilka and Andres Ruby, who together write “The Future of Housing: La Borda by Lacol”, about the emerging winner. Finally, and, in fact, to begin with, it is the voices of the members of the jury of this 2022 edition that have the space to express their reflections on the selected works and on the responsibility of getting involved in this process of reflection and debate on the contemporary European architecture, represented by the EUmies Awards.

ZAP – The EUmies Awards, a sudden burst of energy.
As Tatiana Bilbao points out, do we dare to think of reformulating the definition of the author? Of the architect? Of architecture? In gernal, of our society? This publication – with the 532 works nominated to the EUmies Awards 2022 – reformulates definitions and to do so follows the format of a dictionary: from A to Z, from office to city and from drawing to photo. By listening, we discover the pure expressions of our time that European architects consider key to undertake future challenges.
