The independent jury of experts ranges from five to nine mem-bers. No members of the Pritzker family or outside observers are present during jury deliberations which usually take place during the first months of the calendar year. The jury members are recog-nized professionals in their own fields of architecture, business, edu-cation, publishing, and culture. 2012 Jury Members

The prize is awarded irrespective of nationality, race, creed, or ideology. The Executive Director actively solicits nominations from past laureates, architects, academics, critics, politicians, profession-als involved in cultural endeavors, etc. and with expertise and inter-est in the field of architecture.

Additionally, any licensed architect may submit a nomination to the Executive Director for consideration by the jury for the Pritzker Architecture Prize. Nominations are accepted through November 1 of any given year. It is sufficient to send an e-mail to the Executive Director with the nominees name and contact information. Nomi-nations that do not result in the award are automatically carried over to the following year. The Jury normally undertakes deliberations early in the calendar year and the winner is announced in the spring.

Among Jury Members was Peter Palumbo, patron of the arts and architecture,who has been the Chair of the Pritzker Architecture Prize jury since 2004 and was the Chairman of the Arts Council of Great Britain from 1988 until 1993. Born in Chile Alejandro Ara-vena was chosen in 2004 among the 10 Design Vanguard Architects of the year by Architectural Record, Stephen Breyer taught law for many years at Harvard Law School, Yung Ho Chang, a Chinese ar-chitect, got the 2000 UNESCO Prize for the Promotion of the Arts. Among members of the jury were Glenn Murcutt who received the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2002 and Juhani Pallasmaa, Finnish architect, has published two dozen books and over 300 essays in 30 languages.

Martha Thorne is currently Associate Dean for External Rela-tions at IE School of Architecture in Madrid and has been Executive Director of the Pritzker Architecture Prize since 2005.

Jay and Cindy Pritzker believed that a meaningful prize would encourage and stimulate not only a greater public awareness of buildings, but also would inspire greater crea-tivity within the architectural profession. The Pritzkers, the founders of the award, have long been known for their sup-port of educational, scientific, medical, and cultural activi-ties. Jay A. Pritzker (1922-1999) founded the prize with his wife, Cindy. His eldest son, Thomas J. Pritzker, the current president of The Hyatt Foundation, explains, As native Chicagoans, its not surprising that our family was keenly aware of architecture, living in the birthplace of the sky-scraper, a city filled with buildings designed by architec-tural legends such as Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe, and many others.

He continues, In 1967, we acquired an unfinished building which was to become the Hyatt Regency Atlan-ta. Its soaring atrium was wildly successful and became the signature piece of our hotels around the world. It was immediately apparent that this design had a pronounced effect on the mood of our guests and attitude of our em-ployees. While the architecture of Chicago made us cogni-zant of the art of architecture, our work with designing and building hotels made us aware of the impact architecture could have on human behavior. So in 1978, when we were approached with the idea of honoring living architects, we were responsive.

The bronze medallion awarded to each Laureate of the Pritzker Architecture Prize is based on designs of Louis Sullivan, famed Chicago architect generally acknowledged as the father of the skyscraper. On one side is the name of the prize. On the reverse, three words are inscribed, firm-ness, commodity and delight, recalling Roman architect Vitruvius fundamental principles of architecture of firmi-tas, utilitas, venustas.

To honor a living architect whose built work demonstrates a combination of those qualities of talent, vision, and commitment, which has produced consistent and significant contributions to humanity and the built environ-ment through the art of architecture.

The international prize, which is awarded each year to a living architect for significant achievement, was estab-lished by the Pritzker family of Chicago through their Hyatt Foundation in 1979. Often referred to as architec-tures Nobel and the professions highest honor, it is granted annually.

The award consists of $100,000 (US) and a bronze medallion. The award is conferred on the laureate at a cer-emony held at an architecturally significant site throughout the world.

PRITZKER

Throughout his career, Toyo Ito has been able to produce a body of work that combines conceptual innovation with superbly executed buildings. Creating outstanding architecture for more than 40 years, he has successfully undertaken libraries, houses, parks, theaters, shops, office buildings and pavilions, each time seeking to extend the possibilities of architecture. A professional of unique talent, he is dedicated to the process of discovery that comes from seeing the opportunities that lie in each commission and each site.

Whoever reviews Itos works notices not only a variety of func-tional programs, but also a spectrum of architectural languages. He has gradually developed and perfected a personal architec-tural syntax, which combines structural and technical ingenuity with formal clarity. His forms do not comply with either a mini-malist or a parametric approach. Different circumstances lead to different answers. From the outset, he developed works that were modern, using standard industrial materials and components for his lightweight structures, such as tubes, expanded meshes, perforated aluminum sheeting and permeable fabrics. His later expressive works have been formed using mostly reinforced con-crete. In a truly extraordinary way, he is able to keep structure, space, setting, technology, and place on equal footing. Although the resulting buildings seem effortlessly in balance, they are the result of his deep knowledge of his craft and his ability to deal with all the aspects of architecture simultaneously. In spite of the complexity of his works, their high degree of synthesis means that his works attain a level of calmness that ultimately allows the inhabitants to freely develop their activities within them.

Innovative is a word often used to describe Toyo Itos works. This is apparent in the temporary pavilion created in Bruges in 2002 and the TODS building in Tokyo in 2004 where the building skin also serves as structure.

He has said that architecture must not only respond to ones physical needs, but also to ones senses. Of his many inspiring spaces, the Municipal Funeral Hall in Gifu Prefecture of 2006 or the Tama Art University Library in Tokyo, 2007 or the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion in London in 2002 are but three examples that illustrate Itos cognizant understanding of the people and the ac-tivities within his buildings. His work in favor of Home-for-All or small communal spaces for those affected by the earthquake in Japan in 2011 is a direct expression of his sense of social respon-sibility.

It is evident that while innovating and pushing the boundaries of architecture forward, he does not close the road behind him. He is a pioneer and encourages others to benefit from his discoveries and for them to advance in their own directions as well. In that sense, he is a true master who produces oxygen rather than just consumes it.

Toyo Ito is a creator of timeless buildings, who at the same time boldly charts new paths. His architecture projects an air of optimism, lightness and joy, and is infused with both a sense of uniqueness and universality. For these reasons and for his synthe-sis of structure, space and form that creates inviting places, for his sensitivity to landscape, for infusing his designs with a spiritual dimension and for the poetics that transcend all his works, Toyo Ito is awarded the 2013 Pritzker Architecture Prize.

Los Angeles, CA -Toyo Ito, a 71 year old architect whose architectural practice is based in Tokyo, Japan, will be the recipient of the 2013 Pritzker Architecture Prize. It was announced by Thomas J. Pritzker, chairman of The Hyatt Foundation which sponsors the prize. Ito is the sixth Japanese architect to become a Pritzker Laureate - the first five being the late Kenzo Tange in 1987, Fumihiko Maki in 1993, Tadao Ando in 1995, and the team of Ka-zuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa in 2010.

The formal ceremony for what has come to be known throughout the world as architectures highest honor will be at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston, Massachusetts on Wednesday, May 29. This marks the first time the ceremony has been held in Boston, and the location has particular significance be-cause it was designed by another Pritzker Laureate, Ieoh Ming Pei who received the prize in 1983.

Active Solar has head office in Vienna also representative office in Kiev and in the small town Neustadt in Austria.

The company employs over 1600 profes-sionals worldwide representing 10 different countries.

The energy system in Ukraine is pretty spread out with a heavy installation capacity in the south and east region which has the highest concentration of electricity power plants, strong export potential and supplies energy to the rest of Ukraine. In the central region operate big thermal plants. Western region has strong energy dependence on East region. Crimea and Odessa are energy deficient areas.

East and South region has the highest ra-tio of energy production (66,5%) with 42,2% of population and Crimea has the smallest ratio of 0,5% with 5% of the population.

If you look at the integrated power sys-tem in Ukraine you can see the biggest share produced by thermal plant, by nuclear, then combined heat and power and hydro. Renewable share is still really small but it showed the largest growth of installed ca-pacity - 67%.

In 2012, renewable energy capacity reached 683.94MWp, while the number of projects having been granted FiT increased to 127. Wind energy showed increase from 76, 58MWp to almost 300MWp. Solar has increased substantially from 2,5 to 318MWp. Bioenergy almost stayed flat. You can also see changes in the number of projects. The amount of solar projects increased from 2 in 2010 to 32 in 2012. There was a very sub-stantial growth of the small hydro projects, from 57 in 2010 to 78 in 2012.

If we talk about trends on the global market, we can see that in 2012, for the first time, the cumulative global installed PV ca-pacity passed the 100GW mark.

There was a change in the market lead-ers. In the past years Germany, Italy and Spain were main market rivals. These coun-tries had changes in feed-in tariff, regula-tions, they were constructing solar parks and were focusing on roof tops. Emerging solar markets are lead by United States and include China, Japan, Australia, Czech Re-public, Greece, India, Bulgaria, Thailand and Ukraine.

It is believed that this year China will take over Germany as the leader in the amount of MWp of the installations.

Ukraine faces some challenges during this year such as change in feed-in tariff. By April 1 it will drop across the sector includ-ing PV. Ukraine updated its local content rule: any solar park should show 30% of the local content. And till July of 2014 it will be 50%.

The sun does not shine at night, methods to store large amounts of energy for down-times are needed to make widespread so-lar power more practical. The technologies are currently at different stages of maturity but, in many cases, future developments in both cost and performance will be vital in determining whether they are taken up by the market

Another interesting option is to take advantage of a developed natural gas grid system. If there is excess of energy available you can use electrolyses to change water into hydrogen. Then hydrogen is converted to methane using CO2 that can be taken from atmosphere or biogas plants. CH4 can be used to generate electricity at gas- fired power plants. Process efficiency can reach 80%, if the heat is utilized.

If we take a look at the storage time ver-sus capacity of various technologies, you can see that flywheel has very short time and is in the low capacity area. Hydrogen and natural gas provide very effective stor-age capacity.

EuroCape currently em-ploys more than 30 people, in three offices and plans to continue to steadily increase staffing over the course of 2013. EuroCape Ukraine is currently developing one wind park in Ukraine in Zaporizhia but may selectively begin devel-opment of additional wind park projects in Ukraine in the future, depending upon market conditions.

On the building permit site its urban plan-ning justification was approved in 2010. Public Hearing was successfully completed in October the same year. All preliminary technical works are complete and three project design studies are currently underway and scheduled for com-pletion in 2013. Final project design works are expected to start this year in spring. In terms of land 90% land leases were signed in Spring, 2011. Permanent technical conditions for grid connection were received from NEC UkrEnergo in March, 2012. Wind measurement campaign has been ongoing since September, 2011, con-firming a world-class wind resource. Bird and bat studies and ESIA Phase I are complete.

EuroCape has nine social infrastructure agreements. Seven of them are at the village level and two at the district level. The company pur-chased four ambulances. The budget for social infrastructure from summer 2013 is 3 million Hryvnias.

OECD is a forum to address the eco-nomic, social and governance challenges of globalisation as well as to exploit its opportunities. It is also a setting where governments can compare policy ex-periences, seek answers to common problems, identify good practice, and co-ordinate domestic and international policies

The OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Program was launched in 2008 and aims at contributing to economic growth and development in eleven

countries of the former Soviet Union as well as Afghanistan and Mongolia.

Ukraine Sector Competitiveness Strat-egy consists of the three phases. Phases I, II lasted 36 months (2009-2012). The key questions were which sectors are or could be the most competitive and attract more investments and what are the main barriers hampering sectors growth. The most competitive sectors in Ukraine are agribusiness renewable energies manu-facturing machinery. Among reasons which stop the development are lack of skills, shortage of financing and unclear investment policy and promotion.

Ukraines less clear and less ambi-tious renewable energy targets may in-dicate a lack of long-term commitment for potential investors. In Germany there is 18% of the renewable energy and by 2020 heat for new buildings by 50% will stem from biomass. The part of bioen-ergy will be 14%. In Ukraine there is a renewable energy target 10% for 2030. The percentage of biomass is unknown.

Ukraines administrative procedures involve many interfaces and make grid access more difficult to obtain.

You need from 8 to 16 month to het permitting documentation. It takes from 6 to 10 months to get an informal con-sultation (optional), submit application,

assess and approve application and get public approval (mostly omitted). From 4 to 6 month is needed to get assessment and admittance to Energorynok, green license assessment & approval be NERC, Grid connection assessment & approval by Oblenergo. Application process for grid access increases business risk and length-ens timeline. Multiply interfaces such as energorynok NERC Oblenergo are length-ening the process. There are also certain problems with corruption.

On the contrary, administrative proce-dures in Germany are accelerated by pre-consultation and a single interface

It takes from 2 to 7 months (accelerated process: 3 months) to attend consultation meeting, submit application, assess and approve application. You need maximum 3 months for public participation (only for wood biomass plants >1 MW and >100 KW for other biomass sources). Total cost of application: EUR 500 5,000 depend-ing on number of assessments prescribed. OECD countries show good practices to create accelerated, more transparent and less costly permitting procedures. In Den-mark, for example there is one window in-terface policy and less assessments neces-sary for plants

K: ?IK: Where do you get inspiration for your work from?

: , , , . . 72 . 72 , , .

PNT: I get inspiration from various areas, such as tradition, history or the environment in which a site is located. How-ever, those arent the only sources of inspiration. My late father, Kenzo Tange, used to say Stay focused (on one topic) for 72 hours. He didnt mean exactly 72 hours, but I try to think about my projects all the time, keeping an open mind, while at the same time incorporating my own life experiences into the thought process.

K: ? ?IK: What is your attitude to green or sustainable design? Do you take it in account in your projects?

: . , , . , , , . - , , . , , .

PNT: Nowadays, it is of course important. If we do not take action to restore the natural environment which we have destroyed, there will be no future. However, my thoughts regarding eco-friendly are that life is not a single color, green, but rather it is rainbow-colored. Our mission is to create buildings for people -- spaces where people are comfortable. Eco-friendly is not only about sustainability; we must go beyond the simple numbers of ecological sustainability and create spaces where people feel good.

K: ? ?

IK: How do you see the future of modern architecture? Should it stick to traditions or use only new forms?

: , , . . , , , . , . - , .

PNT: Modern Architecture was born after we had full knowledge and understanding of the previous styles that preceded it. The starting point of Modern Architecture was to understand the previous architecture and defy or negate it. The future of architecture is not only about the creation of new forms, but also a style in which the characteristics of the location take on more importance. Architecture is created within various contexts, such as the environment and circumstances, or tradition and history of the location. A new type of architecture is an architecture that is appropriate for each place and environment.

K: , ?IK: If it is not for architecture, what would you do for a living and why?

: , . , . , , , , . , - . , - , , .

PNT: I am very much interested in fashion, especially as a means of self-expression. Self-expres-sion leads to self-acknowledgment as we learn more about ourselves, eventually leading to a more harmonious and balanced environment and society. Todays society is formed by lifestyle, which is not about only one specific area such as architecture, art or fashion, but rather how all these lifestyle expressions can make peoples lives better. If we can respect every expression of individuality, it al-lows for a balanced society and an individual oriented society. I think the ultimate goal is to allow society to explore and express itself through media such as architecture, fashion and art.

K: ?IK: What is the project of your dreams?

: . , , . .

PNT: Whatever is the next project is always the Dream Project for me. We create architecture within the various constraints and eventually the dream of the owner becomes realized. In this re-gard, I can say all projects are Dream Project.

K: ?IK: What do you think about Ukrainian architecture?

: , . . , . , . .

PNT: Unfortunately, I have never been to Ukraine. I would love to go, though. I see in Ukrain-ian architecture a strong concept, and I feel that the freshness or purity of the concept is expressed. These pure forms seem to have been created based on an understanding of the historical back-ground, and it is refreshing to see such architecture in the context of a complex modern society. I would like the opportunity to see Ukrainian architecture in person someday.

K: ?

IK: In your opinion what is Ukrainian architecture lacking and what can be improved?

: , . ? , , , . , . , , , . , , .

PNT: I dont think the word lacking is appropriate. I am always thinking or searching for the answer to what creates a sense of place? A sense or feeling of place can be created by reflecting on the history and traditions of a location and reinterpreting them from a modern viewpoint in order to create architecture that is appropriate and suitable for that place. Otherwise, the world will be overwhelmed with buildings that all look the same. Although I cannot say that they would not be beautiful buildings, there are memories and histories for each place that need to be considered and respected. By considering and respecting those specific characteristics and expressing them in a modern way, we create architecture that is meaningful and provides solutions that are place specific.

One Raffles Place Tower 2, located in the Central Business District (CBD) of Singapore, has taken its place next to the iconic Tower 1 designed by Kenzo Tange, the site formerly known as OUB Centre. Tower 1, built in 1986, was the tallest building in the world outside of the US at the time, and still one of the tallest in Singapore. Designed to stand alongside Tower 1, the new Tower 2 is a contemporary building that respects the design elements of Tower 1. Tower 1 is sleek but powerful with its solid aluminum faade. Tower 2s elegant glass curtain wall maintains the sleek image of Tower 1 and also expresses its own character as a new addition to the landmark complex. The triangular motif of Tower 1 is incorporated into the design of Tower 2 from ground level to rooftop. Never-seen before sculptural illumination adds beauty to the night view of the CBD area. The architect/artist collaborative installation of a waterfall, a drawing of Japanese painter, Hiroshi Senju, consists of porcelain panels with the picture of a waterfall with real water flowing over the artwork. It is located in the center of main entrance, and creates a refreshing, peaceful atmosphere in the lobby in contrast to the heat and bustle of the CBD. Not simple its appearance, but One Raffles Place Tower 2 is credited with its functional aspect, by receiving the Singapore Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark Platinum Award and being nominated for the International High-rise Award, which is bestowed on a building that stands out for its special aesthetics, pioneering design, integration into its urban context, sustainability, innovative technology and cost effectiveness. As a new landmark, this new tower will inject new enthusiasm into the majestic Singapore City Skyline.

Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower, which contains 3 vocational schools with approximately 10,000 students, is an innovative educational facility located in Tokyos distinctive Nishi-Shinjuku high-rise district. The buildings elliptic shape, wrapped in a criss-cross web of diagonal lines, embodies the cocoon concept. Students are inspired to create, grow and transform while embraced within this cocoon-like, incubating form. In essence, the creative design successfully nurtures students to communicate and think creatively.

In designing Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower, Tange Associates offers a new solution for school architecture in Tokyos tightly meshed urban environment. A new typology for educational architecture, the tower and accompanying auditoriums successfully encompass environmental concerns and community needs with an unparalleled inspirational design.

The high rise tower floor plan is simple. Three rectangular classroom areas rotate 120 degrees around the inner core. From the 1st to the 50th floor, these rectangular classroom areas are arranged in a curvilinear form. The inner core consists of an elevator, staircase and shaft.

Unlike the typical horizontally laid out school campus, the limited size of the site challenged Tange Associates to develop a new typology for educational architecture. Student Lounges are located between the classrooms, facing three directions, east, southwest and northwest. Each atrium lounge is three-stories high and offers sweeping views of the surrounding cityscape. A new type of schoolyard, these innovative lounges offers students a comfortable place to relax and communicate.

The elliptic shape permits more ground space to be dedicated to landscaping at the buildings narrow base, while the narrow top portion of the tower allows unobstructed views of the sky. The nurturing forces of nature are close at hand to the student, an inspiring environment in which to study, learn and grow. For the community, the fascinating design of Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower is a welcome contribution to the urban landscape and an example of how such design innovation benefits and impacts its immediate surroundings.

Tange Associates eye-catching 29-story facade of The One, the first vertical shopping mall of this kind, is an interpretation of Hong Kongs lively and eclectic street life. The varied and original exterior design identifies the multiple functions inside -- restaurants, retail shops, fitness clubs and cinemas. Our interpretation of Hong Kongs identity is an amalgam of characteristics and spaces that can be experienced with the five senses. The different depths, materials and innovative elements of the facade, as well as the medley of tenants from elegant restaurants to fast food booths, from high-end boutiques to simple retailers pay homage to the busy and diverse Hong Kong street culture, which is rapidly disappearing as the old character of the city is replaced by often common, nondescript buildings. The faade offers a different atmosphere at night when the vibrant composition is animated by the illumination of

the interior lights. The open terraces, roof gardens on three levels and terrace restaurants provide not only green spaces for relaxation, but also increase the buildings sustainability. Additionally, the facades surface variation creates a wind-breaking effect at street level, reducing the wind impact on pedestrians. The balanced use of different types of glass and metals on the exterior serves to create comfortable interior spaces. Although the long, narrow building site was a challenge for the floor planning, the strategically placed the atrium, escalators and elevators generate a pleasant and exciting circulation and flow of movement for visitors, as if they were walking the streets of Hong Kong. As the tallest retail complex in Hong Kong, The Ones distinctive facade is well recognized not only from the surrounding areas, but also from across the harbor on Hong Kong Island, making it a new landmark on Nathan Road.

New York, June 12 Asymptote Architecture principals Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture are pleased to announce the launch of the Velo Towers, within the Dreamhub development in the Yongsan District of Seoul Korea. Asymptotes project is designed as an integral part of the master plan accommodating several new projects that are situated along the newly planned Yongsan Park. Neighboring projects include MVRDVs Cloud Towers, the Cross # Towers by BIG Architects and Project R6 by REX.

The Velo Towers are composed as a dynamic arrangement of stacked and rotated volumes that are a formal and programmatic counterpoint to the conventional extrusion of massing that exemplifies the supertall as a building type. By breaking down the scale and massing of the two distinct towers into interconnected circular and oblong volumes, the Velo project proposes an alternative architectural and urbanistic response to the repetitive and monolithic austerity of conventional tower design. The recombination of the typical tower form into a new horizontal and vertical configuration enables the formation of a socially engaging and dynamic environmental response, as well as the creation of a discreet yet compelling architectural landmark for the Yongsan district. The Towers eight distinct residential components are rotated and positioned within a carefully choreographed massing arrangement, calibrating the orientation and views of each residential volume and taking full advantage of the Towers position adjacent to the Yongsan Park overlooking the Han River in the distance.

With a collection of roof gardens, shared amenities and internal circulation around light filled open atrium spaces, the vertically distributed massing elements create unique 6 to 8 storey residential communities on the skyline.

The towers are joined by two bridge structures that house shared public amenities, and act as neighborhood scale connectors for the towers residents. The buildings raised plinth hovers above the communal landscape surrounding the base of the Towers while the Skybridge floats 30 storeys above; housing fitness and recreations centers, lounges, pools, spas and cafes along with a sky garden providing spectacular views over the entire Yongsan site.

While the overall massing of the Velo Towers is comprised of a dynamic arrangement of rotated and stacked components, the architecture of the towers is further articulated volumetrically and materially at the scale of the facades. The unique faceted faades of the Velo Towers are comprised of large prefabricated components consisting of glass within custom molded composite shells finished in pearlescent automotive paint. The 500 individual luxury units that vary in size from 45m2 to 82m2 are also designed for compatibility with custom prefabricated plug-in interior components. Asymptotes design of the Velo Towers exploits the latest advances in design, materials and digital fabrication that are now prevalent in present day automotive, aerospace and marine industries. The merging of these with the latest technological advancements in architecture and the ways in which components can be fabricated and buildings assembled, is enabling Asymptotes vision for the Velo Towers to be realized.

The Velo Towers is the third Asymptote project now underway in South Korea. Along with the Velo Towers there is a 3000 sq meter structure for multimedia exhibitions near Gwangui that is scheduled to open in September 2012 and the 650 m tall World Business Center Tower (WBCB) in Busan is currently under development.
