VILLA O nominated for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture / Mies van der Rohe Awards 2026

YCL studio's VILLA O project has been nominated for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award 2026.

The project is characterized by a clear spatial structure and a consistent architectural logic, in which function and materiality form a unified living environment. The architecture of VILLA O is based on restrained precision of solutions, abandoning redundant elements and focusing on essential spatial relationships.

The nomination reflects the relevance of the project in the broader context of European architecture, which evaluates not only the formal solution, but also its relationship with the environment, usage scenarios and durability.

This assessment marks the consistent direction of YCL studio – to create architecture based on a clear structure, conceptual consistency and long-term value.
