UCP officially inaugurated, and nominated for the Groninger Architectuurprijs!

Not once, not twice, but three times good news about UCP this week: today will see the building’s official inauguration, and last week we learned that the project is officially nominated for the Groninger Architectuurprijs. Firthermore, UCP - a joint project with Vakwerk Architecten - is also still in the running for the public award and currently in the lead. The ballots close this Friday 4 October, so this is your last chance to vote: https://bit.ly/4gmkMWa

‘The UCP has been nominated because the reasoning behind the design strongly appealed to us; for the patients who live in the building, daylight, the optimal use of daylight and the connection with the outside world, are all very important, especially for their recovery, and we are very curious to see how this has found its way into a design’, Jooske Baris, expert jury Groninger Architectuurprijs
