National Grand Prize for Architecture

Since 2004, by the Grand Prix national de l'architecture, the Ministry of Culture rewards an architecture agency located on the national territory for all its built work, its contribution to the contemporary architectural discipline and its ability to disseminate it.

The Ministry of Culture intends to affirm the place of architecture within society and highlight the action of architects, their creation, architectural and urban research and architecture education. 

Device overview

What is the National Architecture Grand Prix?

The Grand Prix national de l'architecture is a national recognition for an approach of excellence that rewards every two years an architecture agency for its work. 

This distinction is an opportunity to affirm the place of architecture in public policies and highlight the role of architects in favor of the quality of construction and living environment, creation and innovation, architectural and urban research, and education.

The community of architecture professionals is invited to contribute to the identification of three architecture agencies likely to receive this award.

The proposals thus collected will be examined by a jury that will meet in October 2024 and then in November 2024 to designate the Grand Prix national de l'architecture 2024.
