EUmies Awards Young Talent winners revealed at the Venice Architecture Biennale

The Fundació Mies van der Rohe, jointly alongside Creative Europe, has announced three Young Talent winners of the EU Prize for Contemporary Architecture / Mies van der Rohe Awards category as part of the EUmies Awards Day 2025 in Venice.

The awards are organized to recognize “exceptional student projects that respond to today’s social, urban, and environmental challenges.” The event was held within the context of the 2025 Venice Biennale, bringing together winners, jury members, and institutional representatives for a day of dialogue around four key themes: Artificial, Natural, Collective, and Intelligens.

“These awards – and today’s event – are dedicated to you, exceptional young talent in European architecture,” said Glenn Micallef, European Commissioner for Intergenerational Fairness, Youth, Culture and Sport. “The next generation shaping Europe’s built environment. Crafting spaces that reflect our unique history, shared values, and our ambition for the future.”

“Designing more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient places for us to live and thrive in,” Micallef added. “As I always say, Europe’s architecture – today’s culture – is tomorrow’s heritage. And your work is essential to making sure that future generations inherit a Europe that reflects our shared vision. For greener, more open, and inclusive societies. Where everyone feels that they belong.”

The three winning projects were joined by a parallel Young Talent Open winner. Below, we have listed more details on each winner. You can compare this year’s edition to those of previous years by reviewing our ongoing coverage of the awards here.
