The Frankfurt Book Fair and the Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM) are presenting the jointly initiated International DAM Architectural Book Award for the twelfth time.

DAM

DAM Architectural Book Award

The prize, unique in its kind and now highly respected, honours the best architecture books of a year. 101 architecture and art book publishers worldwide have responded to the joint call. A specialist jury of external experts and representatives of the DAM selected the ten best architecture books of the year from 274 entries according to criteria such as design, content concept, quality of materials and workmanship, degree of innovation and topicality.

The wide range of topics and the high standard of the entries presented the jury with an enormous challenge. For this reason the jurors once again decided not only to pick ten prize winners, but also to select a further ten entries for the Shortlist of the DAM Architectural Book Award 2020. On this Shortlist you can find Carrousel Confessions Confusion 1 & Carrousel Confessions Confusion 2 by Studio Jan De Vylder together with Koenig Books.

Carrousel Confessions Confusion

‘Carrousel Confessions Confusion is a series of books curated by Studio Jan De Vylder at ETH Zürich. World-renowned architects are asked to confess a building, a garden, a book or whatever could have been relevant in a certain moment of their life and career. The authors share places or situations that became sensible for personal reasons and sometimes unexpectedly. Confessing is always something personal and goes along with the idea of a certain confusion. “Carrousel Confessions Confusion” is a series of sets. Each set is composed by 3 zines. Each zine is about 1 confession. Each confession is narrated through words and images by the author, a critical text mainly written by Maarten Delbeke, pictures by Filip Dujardin and a drawing by Inge Vinck.
