purpose

The object of the competition for the best facade is, as it reads in the regulations, to identify and appreciate the most interesting construction projects on whose facades a complete Baumit brand technology was used: an insulation system, a plaster system with finishing or a program of renovation products with finishing.

terms and conditions

The competition is open to construction projects that were completed between January 1, 2023 and September 30 of this year, and whose investors have explicitly agreed to publish materials related to the submitted construction in the public media.

To be eligible to report a construction project, the facade of the building must be fully completed - including finishing elements (such as railings/balustrades, terraces, plinth zone). All walls/facades of the submitted building must be made with complete Baumit technology. A building can be submitted only in one edition of the competition.
