As part of the 2025 Holcim Foundation Awards, the Europe Grand Prize goes to Art-Tek Tulltorja.
Art-Tek Tulltorja revives a former brick factory in the heart of Pristina (Kosovo), transforming it into a thriving art and technology hub. Led by a collective team including Rafi Segal A+U, Office of Urban Drafters, ORG Permanent Modernity and Studio Rev, the project blends adaptive reuse and circular construction with solar power, recycled materials and abundant vegetation. The result: a “bricks to bytes” cultural and community-centered space — with maker studios, educational facilities, creative workshops, public parks and inclusive urban infrastructure — designed to foster social cohesion, ecological regeneration and new economic opportunities for Pristina’s residents.
