DESIGN AWARD
Throughout the centuries human beings have greatly <strong>de</strong>veloped their capacity<br />
to use Nature for their own benefit in or<strong>de</strong>r to achieve a more comfortable,<br />
pleasant life. But at the same time their activity is becoming more and more of<br />
a risk for nature, which so generously guarantees their survival. It is no longer<br />
questionable that climatic change is clear proof that this risk is near.<br />
Design is one of the exponents of humans’ transforming and creative capacities,<br />
and it also represents a first class cultural and economic value. Creative factors<br />
contribute to boost economic life and may play an essential role in the improvement<br />
and protection of the environment.<br />
But <strong>de</strong>sign and creative capacity may become a horse running on behalf of irresponsible<br />
consumption and industries or, on the contrary, may be of invaluable<br />
help to contribute towards human activities more in line with preserving life on<br />
Earth as we have known it up to now.<br />
From the beginnings of <strong>de</strong>sign as a project discipline, the concern for the effects of<br />
industrial activities on our environment has been constant among many <strong>de</strong>signers.<br />
From Breuer’s writings in the Bauhaus in 1927 on a rational use of green materials,<br />
or Buckminster’s Dymaxion as a paradigm for sustainable materials. To the<br />
increasingly common concern of young architects and <strong>de</strong>signers in search of new<br />
more sustainable materials to reduce the environmental impact of their <strong>de</strong>signs.<br />
The time has come to move from good i<strong>de</strong>as to good <strong>de</strong>eds. Looking for the best<br />
examples and practices to spread them among society, companies, universities,<br />
institutions and the professional <strong>de</strong>signers themselves. In or<strong>de</strong>r to turn what today<br />
is an exceptional practice into an essential requirement to promote, request<br />
or carry out <strong>de</strong>sign.<br />
To put <strong>de</strong>sign at the service of people and at the service of society is one of <strong>Dimad</strong>’s<br />
power i<strong>de</strong>as since its origins and it has also been one of the reasons for the<br />
establishment of this European Environmental Design Award, promoted by outstanding<br />
public figures and institutions in the fields of architecture, <strong>de</strong>sign, training<br />
and the environment. An award that has been born with four basic goals:<br />
I. To value and foster actions carried out in Europe by companies, institutions<br />
or <strong>de</strong>signers which are particularly outstanding examples of good <strong>de</strong>sign<br />
from an environmental viewpoint.<br />
II. To raise awareness among companies, public institutions, <strong>de</strong>signers and society<br />
of the importance of allocating sustainability values to their <strong>de</strong>signs and<br />
products.<br />
BEST_ED_1_EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN AWARD_PREMIO EUROPEO DE DISEÑO Y MEDIO AMBIENTE<br />
III. To make society at large and productive sectors in particular aware of the importance<br />
of conceiving <strong>de</strong>sign as a welfare and wealth trigger and as carrier of<br />
cultural values and a utility.<br />
IV. To turn Madrid into a benchmark for sustainable <strong>de</strong>sign. To place the Central <strong>de</strong><br />
Diseño and Mata<strong>de</strong>ro Madrid at the centre of the <strong>de</strong>sign values inclu<strong>de</strong>d in the<br />
three previous goals.<br />
These objectives have managed to bring together such different entities as the Madrid<br />
Designers’ Association (DIMAD), the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving<br />
(IDAE) of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Tra<strong>de</strong>, the Association Sustainability<br />
and Architecture (ASA), the Foundation Arte y Derecho (Art and Law) and the<br />
European Social Fund through the Business School EOI, Escuela <strong>de</strong> Negocios. All the<br />
above institutions contribute with their means, i<strong>de</strong>as and human resources to select<br />
and acknowledge every year the best projects that:<br />
• Promote improvements in the field of architectural <strong>de</strong>sign and sustainable building.<br />
• Introduce new products or changes in existing products, to improve our daily life.<br />
• Foster the publishing of books and publications with innovations in their elaboration<br />
and with environmentally-related contents.<br />
• Develop graphic <strong>de</strong>sign campaigns or actions promoting environmental values.<br />
• Lead business, institutional or private initiatives than inclu<strong>de</strong> <strong>de</strong>sign and the environment<br />
among their main elements.<br />
All the actions are precisely covered within the five categories of this Award: Building,<br />
Industrial Design, Graphic Design, Communication Campaigns and Initiatives.<br />
In this first edition, 146 projects from all over Europe have taken part in the above<br />
categories. This can be consi<strong>de</strong>red a reasonable success, taking into account the<br />
number and quality of the projects registered.<br />
This first edition, covered and organised from DIMAD by an enthusiastic group of<br />
<strong>de</strong>sign practitioners who have ma<strong>de</strong> the Scientific Committee’s work possible, and<br />
the Jury who have selected 4 projects as absolute First Prizes and have awar<strong>de</strong>d Special<br />
Mentions to other 7 projects.<br />
Combining aesthetic values, innovation, usefulness and viability, environmental protection<br />
and social values. We are convinced that the projects registered and the final<br />
selection of winners are in themselves good exponents of the significance our society<br />
already places on environmental concerns. The quality of the work speaks of how<br />
Design can transmit this concern to industries, improving aspects of our everyday life<br />
that may contribute towards a better future.<br />

For the last few years IDAE has upheld the strategy of managing to have energy<br />
efficiency unavoidably integrated with <strong>de</strong>sign as a further attribute, ad<strong>de</strong>d to the<br />
<strong>de</strong>fining ones relating to aesthetics, functionality or the senses.<br />
Behind every <strong>de</strong>sign product there lies a reflection and a need to meet. Exactly<br />
the same lies behind efficiency, and probably the same renewed way of looking<br />
at the world, i.e., life.<br />
Energy is a scarce, precious resource, and wasting it goes against common sense,<br />
intelligence, aesthetics and, I would even say, ethics. We must turn the energy<br />
efficiency motto –i.e., get more with less- into a paradigm of our way of life,<br />
and a question, as I said before, of common sense, intelligence and opportunity<br />
to carry on progressing, achieve a better quality of life and build up a common<br />
future for everybody.<br />
Thus, the concept of ECODESIGN comes in, in all its power; i.e., the optimisation<br />
and <strong>de</strong>sign of products, both regarding efficiency in energy consumption<br />
when it refers to products requiring power to work, and life cycle.<br />
If the concept of <strong>de</strong>sign is new, so is that of energy efficiency. Energy efficiency<br />
policies and the promotion of renewable sources of energy enjoy today –both<br />
internationally and certainly in Spain- a strategic value which was unthinkable<br />
only three <strong>de</strong>ca<strong>de</strong>s ago; environmental concern seemed then to affect only those<br />
consi<strong>de</strong>red naïve who had started to theorise on the need to strike a balance<br />
between economic growth, energy consumption and respect for Nature.<br />
I would like to point out here that, in any case, it is no longer a question of<br />
willingness or awareness. Everything related to ecological <strong>de</strong>sign requirements<br />
applicable to products that use power has been laid down in Royal Decree<br />
1369/2007, transposing in Spain the European Directive on Eco<strong>de</strong>sign (Directive<br />
2005/32/EC), later amen<strong>de</strong>d by Directive 2008/28/EC.<br />
These two directives have recently been recast into Directive 2009/125/EC [1],<br />
establishing eco<strong>de</strong>sign requirements for energy-related products; not just those<br />
for consumption as it was up to now. Later on, Regulation (EC) 66/2010 [2]<br />
ensures coordination between the <strong>de</strong>sign of these products and their ecological<br />
label of the European Union.<br />
The aim is to create a single framework for the ecological <strong>de</strong>sign of products related<br />
to energy that ensures efficiency and coherence, with a common approach<br />
for the whole EU. Besi<strong>de</strong>s laying down the minimum requirements to market the<br />
products, their environmental benchmarks are established regarding the most<br />
ecological products on the market.<br />
Un<strong>de</strong>r the existing Directive on ecological <strong>de</strong>sign, this is already feasible for<br />
products relating to energy, which may enjoy public employment and/or ten<strong>de</strong>r<br />
and tax benefits.<br />
The current publication presents the European Environmental Design Awards,<br />
envisaging them as a cultural value affecting the economy. In times of crisis we<br />
BEST_ED_1_EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN AWARD_PREMIO EUROPEO DE DISEÑO Y MEDIO AMBIENTE<br />
need to build creative factors into production in or<strong>de</strong>r to increase productivity. All<br />
this, directly addressing the severe environmental challenges while at the same time<br />
maintaining our welfare standards.<br />
The search for practical solutions that turn our life habits and our productive ways<br />
into more efficient, environmentally-friendly patterns is a social and economic need.<br />
And if we do find them, we must disseminate them as much as possible to serve as<br />
mo<strong>de</strong>ls; this is the main aim of the awards.<br />
One of the essential goals of IDEA is to carry out awareness-raising actions targeting all<br />
sectors, thus contributing to building up a new energy culture based on sustainability.<br />
We want to shake both the consumers’ and the manufacturers’ consciences, move<br />
them so that energy is appropriately <strong>de</strong>alt with, giving it priority in those aspects<br />
in which it is present in our lives, which are almost all of them. For this reason,<br />
and because <strong>de</strong>sign, creativity and art are means, like no other, to shake consciences<br />
through reflection and emotion, we are proud to take part in this initiative which<br />
rewards ECODESIGN.<br />
Finally, I would particularly like to stress the need to incorporate <strong>de</strong>sign into so-called<br />
sustainable building. That is, the significant role architectural and space <strong>de</strong>sign may play in<br />
this process of the search for new solutions to achieve sustainable, bioclimatic buildings.<br />
At IDAE, we think it is essential to foster measures that act on energy consumption<br />
in buildings, that help to achieve energy sustainability.<br />
Buildings are constant energy consumers, right from the moment they are built, during<br />
their life cycle until they are <strong>de</strong>molished, in very significant amounts, while producing<br />
at the same time polluting emissions.<br />
Just as a point of information, the building sector in Spain –per use and exploitation-<br />
represents around 20% of end-user energy consumption.<br />
This energy consumption and the environmental impact related to it can and must<br />
be dramatically reduced, through a series of measures connected on the one hand<br />
with urban town planning and on the other, through the articulation of a series of<br />
strategies that contribute to consi<strong>de</strong>ring energy as a starting point criterion when<br />
<strong>de</strong>signing projects.<br />
If everything in project is still ma<strong>de</strong> following conventional views, the city of tomorrow<br />
will still have to face the challenge of preserving quality of life and being committed<br />
to our future. However, it is possible nowadays to plan and <strong>de</strong>sign introducing in<br />
the processes and projects, concepts and criteria that allow for a more rational use of<br />
energy and for urban environments more in line with sustainable <strong>de</strong>velopment.<br />
It is also possible, and I would say essential nowadays, to think that energy may<br />
become an essential part of project <strong>de</strong>sign criteria and of their conditioning consi<strong>de</strong>rations,<br />
gearing the dynamics of land use towards sustainability and a better use of<br />
resources.<br />

Rau transformed a former 1950’s agricultural laboratory into the first CO 2 neutral<br />
and (almost entirely) energy autonomous office in the Netherlands. By breaking<br />
through the rigidity of the existing structure and adding an organic blob at<br />
the centre, the rejuvenated building got a friendly appearance that blends in with<br />
the surrounding nature reserve.<br />
Rau’s intervention did not only give the building a new face, but fundamentally<br />

It is not often that so many qualities converge to award a first prize as is the case<br />
now: The team of architects and their long commitment to sustainability, the<br />
customer and his pioneering effort towards nature preservation, the commission<br />
itself and the <strong>de</strong>cision to maintain a previous building that would be recycled<br />
into a new one with substantial reforms to achieve a balance with the environment<br />
as is achieved here.<br />

Wikado is a <strong>de</strong>sign for a playground in Rotterdam ma<strong>de</strong> out of windmill pieces.<br />
Five (discar<strong>de</strong>d) rotor bla<strong>de</strong>s are used to create a maze-like space with a panna<br />
–a type of ball game– court in the centre, placed on the existing concrete circle.<br />
Four towers are placed around it, each with a distinctive character. Between the<br />
towers there hangs a net which works as a climbing structure, but also prevents<br />
balls from ending up in the neighbours’ gar<strong>de</strong>ns.<br />

Holland is a country in which the <strong>de</strong>sign of urban areas for children’s games<br />
has a long tradition linked to both social and plastic art experimentation. So<br />
the 2012Architecten proposal to use for one of them recycled pieces from windpower<br />
generators comes as no surprise. The outcome is both novel and stimulating.<br />
A path that is beginning to be used and that is offered here as an example of<br />
great formal and creative value.<br />

The <strong>de</strong>sire to reproduce the space of a forest, or of a group of bamboos on a<br />
layer of water, has formed the subconscious basis of the project. On the one<br />
hand there is the creation of a mechanism able to generate extraordinary possibilities<br />
from the point of view of energy logic and environmental awareness,<br />
an essential and symbolic aspect for the Spanish Pavilion. On the other hand,<br />
one of the most attractive spaces one may encounter is transferred to the field<br />
of architecture.<br />
Changing spaces, full of hints and nuances, in which concepts such as verticality<br />
and <strong>de</strong>pth play an essential role.<br />

20% less ink. To do so, extensive tests were carried out, which showed that the<br />

solar energy. Ventilation and warm air heating are ensured by fresh air and by<br />
warm air circulation ventilation with heat recovery from outgoing air. The earth<br />
heat exchanger serves mainly to bring cooler air insi<strong>de</strong> in the summer months.<br />
Two automatic wood pellet furnaces provi<strong>de</strong> the main source of heat for heating<br />

The quality of Spanish architecture is valued throughout the world. However,<br />
the <strong>de</strong>gree of sustainability of the buildings is still poor. This is why it is worth<br />
getting acquainted with some examples by those who are starting their way towards<br />
managing building resources which are friendlier with the environment:<br />
bioclimatic buildings, changes or improvements in the industry, ecological constructions<br />
and restoration among others.<br />
This publication is a reference for sustainable architecture in which thirty-two<br />
architects express their concerns and show us forty buildings where solutions<br />
that will soon be wi<strong>de</strong>ly used are applied.<br />

Garbage architecture provi<strong>de</strong>s a second life for found or thrown-away objects<br />
and operates on the bor<strong>de</strong>rs of architecture, art and <strong>de</strong>sign, creating new products<br />
from old materials. Origin for <strong>de</strong>signs is found in the object itself, by listening<br />
to its own composition, history, or local and social context. The authors do<br />
not start from a <strong>de</strong>sign, they need a problem to play with, 3D troubleshooting,<br />
and creative improvisation with whatever is locally available.<br />

This book offers an innovative, <strong>de</strong>sign-centred approach that explores both<br />
the meaning and practice of sustainable <strong>de</strong>sign. The author explores the <strong>de</strong>sign<br />
process in the context of sustainability, and challenges conventional ways of<br />
<strong>de</strong>fining, <strong>de</strong>signing and producing functional objects. He discusses the personal<br />
<strong>de</strong>sign process, tacit knowledge, ephemeral <strong>de</strong>sign, experimental <strong>de</strong>sign, and the<br />
relationship between intellectual <strong>de</strong>sign criteria, physical expression and aesthetic<br />
experience.<br />

The project Table Board <strong>de</strong>rives out of the interest in using and recycling timber.<br />
Knots, cracks, stains, <strong>de</strong>fects of wood that make them not usable, represent the<br />
main objective of the project.<br />
Traditional methods of craftsmanship are used when carving each piece to apply<br />
the finishes. The methods and techniques used such as gilding, engraving or<br />
tempera over gilding, intend to recover the tradition of Arts and Crafts.<br />

In 1976 new telephone booths ma<strong>de</strong> of Aluminium started to be installed in<br />
Austria, been out in the weather in cities and urban areas for about 30 years.<br />
The <strong>de</strong>signer recovers this first-class material from the scrap to <strong>de</strong>velop new<br />

have reincarnated into tables, available with drawers, in various heights and<br />

The Black & White House (55 m 2 ) is a prototype clad with photovoltaic modules<br />
to maximise the energy capture surface area.<br />
A key concept for this housing is its portability and easy assembly anywhere.<br />
On the other hand, the self-orientating solar roof captures the maximum energy<br />
offered by the Sun, providing 10.3% extra energy compared with a static south<br />

Träd is not only a storage system, Träd is a shelter, a personal space where the<br />
children can carry out their fantasies and games. A place that allows them to<br />
feel safe, to learn and to imagine. That enchanted wood where one can dream of<br />
heroes and princesses...and live a thousand and one adventures.<br />
The tree as an icon of wisdom, shelter and playground. Symbol of life and<br />
growth. Approach to an increasingly absent nature, as a comeback to traditional<br />
games towards imagination <strong>de</strong>velopment, with no artifices, as a basis for the<br />

How much trash do humans throw away every day? Is trash really all we throw<br />
away? What if we could extend the life cycle of the objects we use in our dairy<br />
life? With Trash? the authors want people to think about the life of the objects,<br />
telling them that this cycle could be longer in a society that generates more and<br />
more garbage everyday.<br />
Trash? is a garbage bag that can be used as a puff. It can be used indoors or<br />
outdoors, just fill it up with garbage and enjoy the seat.<br />
Buy, enjoy, throw away and buy again seems to be all that mo<strong>de</strong>rn society<br />

It is ma<strong>de</strong> by carpenters in a semi-industrial process, assembled individually.<br />
Furthermore, the imperfect form of the wood pallets gives the chair a unique<br />

The main objective of Vitrohouse is to <strong>de</strong>monstrate that real sustainable architecture<br />
should be ma<strong>de</strong> only by means of dry-assembled components. This will<br />
optimize the best use of resources, reduce waste to the maximum (or remove<br />
it completely), and <strong>de</strong>crease, also to the maximum, the energy consumed in its<br />
construction. At the same time, buildings may consi<strong>de</strong>rably extend their life<br />
cycle, since their components can be easily disassembled, repaired and reused<br />
as many times as one likes. In fact, Vitrohouse has an infinite life cycle.<br />
