Trudo Vertical Forest finalista a the Plan Award 2023

On Thursday November 9th, at the Monte Rosa Auditorium in Milan, the award ceremony for THE PLAN Award 2023 is held, in which Trudo Vertical Forest, a project by Stefano Boeri Architetti for the city of Eindhoven, is among the finalists in the Housing category.

THE PLAN Award is an annual international prize that recognises excellence in architecture, interior design and urban planning.
The international jury, made up of professionals and academics from the world of architecture and design, chose the finalists from among over 600 projects selected from 1300 applications received from all over the world, divided into 20 different categories, for each of which two winners will be selected: one in the Completed section and one in the Future section, for projects yet to be realised.

Trudo Vertical Forest, the first example of a vertical forest totally dedicated to social housing, has been selected as a finalist in the Housing category of the Completed section.
Trudo Vertical Forest represents the achievement of a real milestone: by making the Vertical Forest typology accessible to everyone, even to tenants with low incomes, the project demonstrates how living in contact with trees and greenery is not an exclusive prerogative, but can indeed become a possible choice for citizens with very different economic backgrounds. The Trudo Vertical Forest succeeds in guaranteeing high quality, due to the flexibility of the interior spaces and their relationship to open spaces, in a building with a significantly reduced construction cost. The project does not merely modify the urban landscape, but aims to define new housing standards for social housing and thus respond to environmental and housing issues.
