The International Piranesi Award, is an award for architectural projects that were created in Central Europe and the Balkans.

Started in 1989, the Piranesi Award is given out at the Piran Days of Architecture international conference in Piran, Slovenia. It was named after Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Participating countries include Austria, the Czech Republic, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia (joined in 2018), Bosnia and Herzegovina (joined in 2019), and Montenegro (joined in 2020).

Recipients

The projects presented at the Piranesi exhibition, are selected and nominated at the end of October by the national selectors of the participating countries. Each selector can propose five projects. Fifty-five architectural realizations and 42 student projects compete for the award.

The prestigious Piranesi Award, two Piranesi Honorary Mentions, and the one Piranesi Student Honorary Mention are selected by an international jury consisting of annual PDA conferencing lecturers and conferred by the honorary sponsor of the PDA Conference.

In 1989, Bogdan Bogdanović received the first Piranesi award for the Dudik Memorial Park in Vukovar, Croatia.[1]
