The DAM Preis 2024 goes to GUSTAV DÜSING & MAX HACKE for the STUDIERENDENHAUS OF THE TU BRAUNSCHWEIG
The DAM Preis 2024 goes to GUSTAV DÜSING & MAX HACKE for the STUDIERENDENHAUS OF THE TU BRAUNSCHWEIG: The jury was particularly impressed by the wonderfully light, open student house on the campus of the Technical University. The filigree structure of the building is also extremely sustainable, as the steel and glass construction can be completely dismantled and reused. The backstory includes an unusual and exemplary competition procedure that was advertised and organized by the Faculty of Architecture among the academic staff.

The Frankfurt Book Fair and Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM) are presenting the jointly initiated international DAM Architectural Book Award for the fifteenth time.

We are deeply shocked by the attack on Israel by the Hamas terrorist organization.
Our thoughts are with the victims of these cowardly acts of violence and with their families. Nothing can justify the excesses of violence against the Israeli population.
The City of Tel Aviv-Yafo is the twin city of Frankfurt am Main. For several years, the Liebling Haus - The White City Center is a close partner of the Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM). We stand by the side of the people there and throughout Israel.
In 2023, the Frankfurt Book Fair and Deutsche Architekturmuseum are once again inviting all art and architecture book publishers worldwide to participate.
The submissions are evaluated by a rotating expert jury made up of representatives of Deutsche Architekturmuseum and external experts according to criteria such as design, conception, material and processing quality, degree of innovation and topicality. All art and architecture book publishers from Germany and abroad can take part.
Plan. Work. City.
The DAM for kids and young peopleThe DAM’s education program offers children, schoolchildren, and adults access to architectural topics in a playful and practical way. We want to accompany children and young people into the world of architecture, and that begins on their own doorstep. The diversity of the topic makes it possible to connect to the lifeworld of our young guests and to introduce them to building culture and design possibilities.
