As in previous years, the Design Frog Prince award winners will be decided at the annual BIOTOP group Partner Event on 23 November 2017 in Rotterdam.

There are three categories:

• Natural Pool
• Living-Pool
• Conversion & Refurbishment

All projects submitted to the awards contest can be viewed on the contest bulletin board. The international expert jury and the press jury were thrilled by the high technical and aesthetic quality of the submissions.

Despite their excitement for each of the projects, the jury members cast a critical eye on all submissions and judged them according to the specified guidelines and their own personal preferences.

32 projects were submitted to the three contest categories in total; the category “Living-Pool” was the most popular with 15 submissions.

Following the voting by the judges, four finalists remain per category, and the winners will be determined by the participants in the Partner Event as usual.

We would like to thank the members of the international jury:
