ReD's M-City project receives the "Outstanding Award" (1st Prize) in the 2006 Far Eastern International Digital Architecture Design Award (FEIDAD), with the value of 20,000$ USD. The Far Eastern International Digital Design Award (The Feidad Award) was conferred for the first time in 2000, its aim being to encourage and honour innovative design created with the aid of digital media. In 2005, the jury which comprised Christian Bruun (Quantum Film), Greg Lynn (Greg Lynn FORM), Jacob van Rijs (MVRDV), Gerhard Schmitt (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), Birger Sevaldson (Ocean North), and other distinguished architects, awarded the prize for the sixth time. The 2005 Feidad award includes 126 submissions by architects, students and designers from 26 different countries, exploring digital concepts such as computing, information, electronic media, hyper-, virtual-, and cyberspace in order to help define and discuss future space and architecture in the digital age. Outstanding award for the 2005 edition of Feidad was conferred to ReD Research + Design (Marta Male-Alemany, Jose Pedro Sousa), whose project had already been presented on the pages of ARCH'IT and whose work was featured in "The Storytellers" exhibit, part of the BEYOND MEDIA festival in Florence. The Design Merit Award was given to Evan Douglis, BASE4, R&Sie(n) + D, and Fabio Schillaci. ARCH'IT presents here the FEIDAD through the words of Yu-Tung Liu, chairman of the Award
