Torino, Architetture Rivelate award

“Architetture Rivelate” – Revealed Architectures - is an award presented annually since 2004 by the Order of Architects of Turin to encourage qualified demand in the city, a plaque for award-winning buildings to make good examples of architecture easily recognisable even to the non-expert eye.

On June 17 prizes were presented to the winning projects in “Architetture Rivelate”, the eighth annual competition established in 2004 by the Order of Architects of Turin and assigned to works of contemporary architecture in the city.
The prize is a plaque applied to the winning buildings with the aim of attracting the attention of passers-by, making examples of good architecture visible and recognisable even by non-experts.
These are buildings which draw on careful planning and correct construction even if they don?t aspire to international fame, helping to add value to the city in which they stand.
The initiative offers citizens examples of quality architecture with the aim of encouraging “demand for good architecture in the city and the surrounding area”.
