Since 2003 the Trimo Architectural Awards are granted every two years for the best architectural solutions that use Trimo construction products in a creative and innovative way. The awards for the most innovative and unconventional applications are assigned to the projects in two categories – The Complete Architectural Solution and Special Awards for the Innovative Use of Trimo Products.

The purpose of the contest is to encourage architects and designers for innovative and different thinking in planning, use, and implementation of Trimo products in all sorts of projects, and thus influence the development of the technical field.

Background
