What is the National Wood Construction Award?
The National Wood Construction Award is an award for the best wooden buildings in the Netherlands and is organized by the trade journal *Het Houtblad*. The Pasteur Project has been selected for the preliminary round.

There are two types of awards:
The People's Choice Award. Anyone can vote. The project from the shortlist that receives the most votes wins.
The jury prizes. The jury will select the nominees for three category awards and the overall jury prize from the shortlist. The nominated projects will be announced in late October.

Here's how to vote
– Go to the Project Pasteur page on the Het Houtblad website.
– Click “Vote for this project.”

Voting takes just a minute and can be done until Friday, November 13. You may cast a total of three votes: one per category.

When will we know more?
The winners will be announced on Tuesday, November 17, during Houtdag at Corpus in Leiden. This is the annual conference on building with wood.
