Congratulations to Alejandro Aravena
Dear Alejandro,
On behalf of the Sto Foundation, I would like to offer my heartfelt congratulations for your Pritzker Architecture Prize win!
Your work is characterised by great design and social responsibility – you have more than earned the "Oscar" of architecture. We are delighted that your commitment to the design, preservation, and rebuilding of living space has been recognised in this way as an important task for architects.
The jury's decision makes it clear how important it is to handle economic and ecological developments openly, critically, and above all constructively – especially in architecture.
We would like to thank you for taking part in the November Talks in London. You shared your enthusiasm, ideas, and visions with an interested audience.
I await this year's Biennale with anticipation, wish you a lot of success, and am looking forward to welcoming you at one of our events in the future.
Very best wishes from the Sto Foundation!
Uwe Koos
Chairman of the Executive Board of the Sto Foundation
