Awards
In addition to grants for philanthropic projects, the foundation awards individual prizes.
Two awards are given alternately every other year – the Building Component Award in odd years and The Daylight Award in even years.
The Daylight Award
’The Daylight Award’ focuses on the meeting between architecture and research with significant emphasis on the interaction between theory and practice.
The award is presented every two years.
The Building Component Award
By honouring ingenuity in the details, Villum Foundation and VELUX FOUNDATION seek to inspire continued innovation – as a necessary driving force in the sustainable transition of the construction industry.
