How can daylight transform architecture? What kinds of spaces emerge when light is deliberately planned and utilized?

The VELUX Architecture Competition, in collaboration with DETAIL, is once again seeking outstanding projects for 2026/2027 that demonstrate how daylight sustainably shapes quality of life, spatial impact, and architecture. Whether it’s a new construction, renovation, or restoration, we want to highlight ideas, concepts, and buildings that uniquely center on daylight.

Take this opportunity to present your project to a professional audience, gain valuable recognition for your work, and become part of an inspiring collection of innovative architecture.

Have you completed a project that stands out for its well-thought-out daylighting concept? If so, we look forward to learning more about it. All information regarding participation and submission can be found in the competition documents.
