ICONIC AWARDS 2020: Innovative Architecture
A competition for the whole world of architecture.
Architecture. Interior. Product. Communication. Concept.
ICONIC AWARDS: Innovative Architecture, established by the German Design Council, is the first
independent international architecture and design competition to take into account the interplay
between the various disciplines. Awards are given to visionary buildings, innovative products and
sustainable communication in all sectors of architecture, the construction and real estate business
and the manufacturing industries. The focus is on holistic production and interaction between the
trades in the context of architecture.
The organiser
As one of the world's most important centres of expertise in design and architecture, the German
Design Council acts as an interface between designers and the construction industry. Its awards are
considered to be an independent seal of quality of international standing, marking out contemporary
developments and creative achievements. Originally established as a foundation in 1953 by the
Federation of German Industries and a number of leading companies, through the initiative of the
German Bundestag (the German federal parliament), the German Design Council advocates good
design through its competitions, exhibitions, conferences, seminars and publications. Currently, over
330 German and international companies are members of the German Design Council.
