On the occasion of the presentation of his Grand Prize for Architecture, Enor presents the 480-page book-catalogue with all the projects of the winners and finalists.

Since the first edition of the awards in 2005, one of the main motivations of the well-known lift company based in Vigo, Spain, has been to contribute to the dissemination of the best architecture built on the Iberian Peninsula. Enor thus continues to invest in the potential of the book as the best tool to promote a slow and reflective reading and study.

As it could not be otherwise, the book highlights the winning projects of the 8th edition of the prize, with special relevance to the Casa do Rio, a work designed by the architect Francisco Vieira de Campos, of the atelier Menos é Mais Arquitectos and built by rusticasa®.

The awards ceremony took place this year off the stage, because of the protection measures against COVID-19, and this time it was held directly at the winners’ workplace. On this occasion, the book served not only to exalt the works presented, but also as a trophy for the prize winners.
