Οπως είναι γνωστό το #The Chicago Athenaeum International Museum απονέμει κάθε χρόνο τα διεθνή Αρχιτεκτονικά Βραβεία. Το #European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies σε συνεργασία με το  #European Center Contemporary Space Athens παρουσιάζει / εκθέτει τα διεθνή βραβεία, καθώς και οργανώνει την απονομή των βραβείων σε λαμπρή τελετή, με φόντο τον ιερό βράχο της Ακρόπολης.

 

Σχετικό άρθρο για τη απονομή βραβείων 2020, 2021 https://artportal.gr/texnes/arxitektoniki/international-architecture-awards-2020-2021-european-prize-for-architecture-2020-2021.html

Βραβεία έχουν δοθεί σε μεγάλα ονόματα του χώρου, η έκδοση που παρουσιάζεται στο άρθρο αυτό αναφέρεται στον βραβευμένο μεγάλο Αρχιτέκτονα #Norman Foster καθώς επίσης και τους βραβευθέντες το 2021. 

Είναι μία έκδοση εξαιρετική που ενδιαφέρει όχι μόνο τους Αρχιτέκτονες αλλά και όλους όσους ενδιαφέρονται για τις τελευταίες τάσεις της διεθνούς Αρχιτεκτονικής.
Ακολουθεί το Δελτίο Τύπου του Οργανισμού.

Over the last five decades as head of Foster + Partners, Foster has designed a superb variety of sublime, streamlined objects and products from airplanes, boats, and luxury yachts to office and residential furniture, lighting, airline sitting, kitchens, bathrooms fixtures, windows, door hardware, buses, retail fittings and environments, museum installations, pen holders and office equipment, wind turbines, gas stations, a cable stayed bridge — even a children's playground following his unique design sense to expand the human experience with design solutions that are bold, robust, inventive, vigorously functional, and assuredly pragmatic.

"As an architect, you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which is essentially unknown." 
- Norman Foster 

Like Foster's architecture, his industrial and product designs are always innovative while their engineering is achieved by working with the world's best structural and services engineers. In 1999, Norman Foster was awarded with The American Prize for Architecture by Chicago Athenaeum. In 2018, Foster was awarded with The American Prize for Design by The Chicago Athenaeum for his industrial designs.
