The Obel Award Announces the Theme for Its 2025 Edition
Briefly

The OBEL Award, presented annually by the Henrik Frode Obel Foundation, recognizes innovative architectural practices that address social and ecological challenges. For its 2025 edition, the award's theme, 'Ready Made', focuses on projects that prioritize the reuse and repurposing of existing resources to foster social well-being and sustainable practices. This initiative encourages architects to break away from traditional norms and approaches, advocating for material innovation and adaptive reuse. The award continues a history of promoting environmentally conscious and collaborative architectures, such as last year's emphasis on redefining the architect's role through collective practices.
The OBEL Award seeks to promote architecture that fosters dialogue and addresses social and ecological issues through innovative reuse and repurposing solutions.
With its 2025 theme 'Ready Made', the OBEL Award encourages architectural practices to focus on adaptive reuse and sustainability instead of emphasizing new construction.
