Archiprix 2026 Open Vision at TU/e; a Throwback 

The Archiprix 2026 Open Vision exhibition was on display at Plaza Vertigo, from March 20th until April 28th, in the Department of the Built Environment at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). 

By exhibiting at Plaza Vertigo Archiprix aims to offer a source of inspiration for current architecture students at TU Eindhoven. 

In Delft, the nominees’ drawings and models were carefully taken down and packed for transport to Eindhoven. The introduction space designed by Verloren Bekisting, reorganised the mint-green panel walls and showed videos with the reflection of this year's independent jury and introductory talks by the Archiprix nominees.  

The nominees’ graduation projects were then installed on the panel walls with care and precision by the build-up team, following the exhibition’s five chapters: Enchanting the Everyday, Softening the City, Generous Gestures, Ecologies of Repair, and Constructive Foraging. The corridor between the walls became an axis for the larger models, displayed on pedestals designed by Verloren Bekisting. 

No worries if you missed the exhibition in Eindhoven, the Archiprix 2026 Open Vision will be on display at Brutus in Rotterdam on June 12th and 13th. Please note the Archiprix 2026 Awards Ceremony will be held on June 13th.
