Best building of the year
Nomination for Jonas IJburg
Jonas IJburg is nominated by BNA for Best Building of the Year 2023 in the category ‘quality of life and social cohesion’.
Jonas proves that The Netherlands is ready for a new kind of development where sustainability and collective living in high urban density can coexist. The building is designed to strengthen social cohesion by creating a sustainable and inviting heart not only for the residents, but for the entire neighborhood.
The diamond shaped exterior covered in black zinc is stunning, but the real surprise from Jonas lies on the inside; It is welcoming, warm, spectacular and expresses a modern and sustainable community life.
The BNA Building of the Year Prize makes the added value of architecture in The Netherlands visible. Not necessarily the best architect or the most beautiful building are nominated, but those buildings with added value for the environment, user and society.
Vote for Jonas! Vote for a new way of living.
