Winking · Froh  Architekten have successfully won the international competition for the urban redevelopment of Alter Wall 40. After a revision phase, the competition process has now been completed by the investor Art-Invest Real Estate and presented in its updated form. The site is located between Hamburg City Hall and Rödingsmarkt.

On 11 November, Winking Froh Architects were once again awarded Building of the Year for the extension of the Heilwig Grammar School in Hamburg Alsterdorf. The honour by the Architects' and Engineers' Association is reserved for buildings completed in the same year in the Hanseatic city, and has been awarded since 1979. This year, the awards for 2019 and 2020 will be presented retrospectively. The Michaelisbrücke, the Jarrestraße residential development, the extension of the Davidwache, the Hotel Kaffeebörse and the Zitadellenbrücke were previously awarded the title of Building of the Year.

Winking - Froh Architekten have been awarded 1st prize in the Hamburg 2020 Housing Prize for the residential courtyards in the Pergolenviertel. The jury, consisting of Prof. Dietmar Eberle, Baumschlager Eberle, Tim Heide, Heide von Beckerath and Franz-Josef Höing, Chief Building Director in Hamburg, voted unanimously in favour of awarding us the Housing Prize; we had entered for the Ideas Prize. The award, which is presented by the Architekturcentrum under the patronage of Senator Dr. Dorothee Stapelfeldt, aims to "highlight special structural and design qualities as well as integrative and sustainable solutions in housing construction", according to the text of the award. In the Pergolenviertel, we succeeded in creating leeway for the high-quality façades within the narrow specifications of the design guidelines by means of a well thought-out organisation of the internal development and a sensible arrangement of the special uses, which remained within the budget.
