Last call for entries: WMF/Knoll Modernism Prize

The deadline for this year’s World Monuments Fund (WMF)/Knoll Modernism Prize is 30 June, with entries dealing with the conservation of modernist structures eligible to apply.

The WMF writes
The World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize is awarded biennially for an innovative architectural or design solution that has preserved or enhanced a modern landmark or group of landmarks.  The first of its kind, the award acknowledges the growing threats—neglect, deterioration, or even demolition—now facing significant works of modernism, and recognizes the architects and designers who help ensure their rejuvenation and long-term survival. Its purpose is to raise public awareness of the influential role modernism plays in our architectural heritage, and recognize modern buildings as sustainable structures with viable futures.
