In 2024, Guiding Architects organises a new series of InsighTours in collaboration with the Brick Award. Discover one of the buildings nominated for the Brick Award 24! Participation is free of charge.

The port city of Hamburg offers a variety of important architecture, including HARBOR (Hamburg Advanced Research Centre for Bioorganic Chemistry).

The Hamburg HARBOR project, designed by Nickl & Partner Architekten, combines research with striking architecture. We invite you to experience the unique connection between science and architecture and to discuss the inspiration and challenges of the building with the architects themselves and other experts in the field.

The InsighTours, launched by Guiding Architects and Wienerberger, focus on buildings nominated for the Brick Award, an international award launched by Wienerberger in 2004 to recognise outstanding brick architecture from around the world. A pre-jury selects the 50 nominees, before an international jury of renowned architects chooses the category winners and the winners of the two main prizes. All nominated projects are presented in the book ‘Brick 24’, published by Park Books.
