We set up the Vande Moortel Clay Paver Awards in order to promote and support unique designs created using clay pavers. Projects which rise to challenges such as sustainability, accessibility and cost efficiency, for example.
It is therefore our belief that high-quality fired clay pavers belong in such environments. That is why we want to draw attention to projects – both large and small, public and private – realised using our pavers and reward the people who designed them.
We are proud to announce the winners of the various categories of the Clay Paver Awards 2020-2021 below:
