The Mediterranean Sustainable Architecture “MEA2013 Awards” came to a close with an impressive Award Ceremony that took place on November 27. After months of activities as well as numerous important participations, the Awards successfully concluded their work and created a fitting Ceremony to celebrate all the distinguished projects of the competition. The Ceremony began with a concise presentation of the Awards’ profile and aims and proceeded with short speeches by judging committee members while the Cervantes Institute of Athens was crowded with people interested to witness the conclusion of the competition. After the end of the Award Ceremony followed a visit to the “European Centre” exhibition space, that hosts the exhibition of all the distinguished projects. Completing our activities for the MEA2013, we sincerely thank you for supporting this new competition that aims to bring forth sustainable architecture in the Mediterranean zone.
