The jubilee 5th year of the prestigious Office of the Year competition, in which more than 500 exceptional office realizations have entered the history of the competition, is launching the registration of applications today. In addition, this year the organizer of the competition, the company Prochazka & Partners, is coming up with a number of novelties. The biggest one is the transfer of the gala evening to summer, and instead of the interior of the Žofín Palace, the biggest design event of the year will take place in the gardens. Guests can look forward to a charming gala garden party in the heart of Prague. Thanks to the transfer of the gala evening to the summer months, the contestants have more time to prepare their entries - both architectural studios and the companies themselves can traditionally enter the competition. Registration will be open until April 30, 2021.
