Last year, we still divided the submitted architectural visualizations into two areas: still and moving image. This year, the special architecture prize will go to a film from the field of architecture; architectural stills will once again be judged as usual in the regular animago category by the animago expert jury. The DETAIL jury will meet one day before the animago expert jury, on July 10.

DETAIL is one of the most renowned specialist magazines for architecture. With current contributions to architectural debate, well-founded information on technical developments and materials, as well as documentation of outstanding German and international building examples with their extensively researched construction drawings, Detail supports the work of architects and civil engineers.
