Applications open for New European Bauhaus Prizes 2025 – open to non-EU residents and projects implemented in Ukraine
The European Commission is opening applications for its fifth edition of the New European Bauhaus Prize, celebrating innovation and creativity inspired by the New European Bauhaus (NEB).
The NEB Prizes will honour outstanding projects and ideas from individuals, teams, and organisations. Visionaries, creatives, and changemakers from across Europe and beyond are invited to submit innovative projects and ideas that reshape the way their community lives and interacts with the environment. Applicants can be EU or non-EU residents, as long as their projects and concepts are implemented in the EU, in the Western Balkans , or in Ukraine.
The 2025 NEB Prizes will rewarded under four categories:
- Reconnecting with nature;
- Regaining a sense of belonging;
- Prioritising the places and people that need it the most;
- Shaping a circular industrial ecosystem and supporting life-cycle thinking.
In each of the four categories, two parallel competition strands are established:
- Strand A: ‘New European Bauhaus Champions’ will be devoted to existing and completed projects with clear and positive results.
- Strand B: ‘New European Bauhaus Rising Stars’ will be dedicated to concepts submitted by young talents aged 30 years old or younger. The concepts can be at different stages of development, from ideas with a clear plan to the prototype level.
The 2025 Prizes will be awarded to 22 winners and runners-up in total, who will receive a monetary prize up to €30,000 and a communication package to help them further develop and promote their projects and concepts.
The deadline for applications is 14 February. Applications should be submitted through the official New European Bauhaus Prizes platform.
