Hundreds of entries from many countries\u2014including T\u00fcrkiye\u2014will compete on an international stage. Projects will be evaluated in six categories: Single-Family House, Multi-Unit Residential, Non-Residential Building, ETICS Renovation, Historic Building Restoration, and Texture\/Character-Defining Fa\u00e7ade. Submissions by architecture offices will be assessed by a jury, and the awards will be presented at a ceremony in Budapest in May 2026.<\/p>\n

Organized biennially by Baumit, the international fa\u00e7ade competition will once again feature fa\u00e7ades realized with Baumit products across six categories. An international jury of architects will review the entries and shortlist six finalists per category. At the finals in Budapest, category winners will be announced alongside the grand Life Challenge 2026 award. In addition to the jury\u2019s verdict, there will be a public vote via an online platform, with the winners of the public vote receiving certificates. Entries from T\u00fcrkiye are expected across multiple categories, and submissions remain open until year-end.<\/p>\n
