Since 2009 the cash prize is given to the winners by Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning - the grant Piranesi Award in value 3.000 EUR, both Piranesi Honorable Mentions and a Student Piranesi Award in value 1.000 EUR.
Background
Every year the national selectors select five projects from their country which compete for the Piranesi Award. The jury consists of the participating lecturers of the international conference Piran Days of Architecture. The most important criterion for the selection is to have made a step forward in finding architectural solutions within a certain "milieu".
Piranesi Award
In 2009 a total of 31 projects from Austria, Czech Republic, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Slovakia, and Slovenia took part in the international exhibition for the International 2009 Piranesi Award, which was granted to decaARCHITECTURE from Greece for the project Aloni house in Antiparos.
Recent Piranesi Award winners were Miha Klinar, Špela Kuhar, Blaž Medja, Uroš Pavasovič, and Robert Potokar from Slovenia (2004), Idis Turato & Saša Randić from Croatia (2005), Dean Lah & Milan Tomac - Enota Architects from Slovenia (2006), Studio Njirić+Arhitekti from Croatia (2007), and Ján Studený and Martin Vojta from Slovakia (2008).
Piranesi Honorable Mention
International 2009 Piranesi Honorable Mention went to Laura Peretti (Studio Insito) from Italy for the project Watermills Houses’ renovation, and Andreas Cukrowicz and Anton Nachbaur – Sturm (Cukrowicz Nachbaur Architekten) from Austria for the project Community Center in St. Gerold.
