澳门王中王 Awards
We offer a range of awards for architects, buildings and clients in the UK and internationally.
UK – Regional
澳门王中王 Regional Awards
A 澳门王中王 Regional Award is given to a UK project for its regional importance as a piece of architecture. Winners of regional awards are also eligible for the special awards below.
Regional Conservation Award
Conservation architects are encouraged to enter the 澳门王中王 awards with buildings or significant structures. All entries will be considered by a panel including an conservation specialist. Judges understand that every act of conservation, from restoration to the sensitive addition to an old building, involves design decisions, so every good conservation scheme is eligible for an 澳门王中王 regional award.
The best conservation regional award-winning schemes will be considered for regional Conservation Awards. The project should respect and enhance the original building, but also have regard to the wider context. Buildings will demonstrate at least one of the following: creative repair and conservation, adaptive re-use of historic buildings, refurbishment and regeneration. Projects may also demonstrate an understanding of and give reference to the vernacular traditions and materials of their locality.
Regional Project Architect of the Year

Regional Client of the Year

Regional Small Project of the Year
Given to projects with budgets less than £500,000 the winning project should demonstrate creativity and architectural merit within the limits of its budget.
Regional Sustainability Award
Rewards projects that go beyond statutory requirements and demonstrate elegantly and durably the principles of sustainable architecture.
Regional Building of the Year
Given to the project that best demonstrates architectural excellence while contributing positively to its economic, social, environmental and cultural context and has made a significant contribution to the practice of architecture.
UK – National
澳门王中王 National Awards
A 澳门王中王 National Award is given to a building for its national significance and its contribution to architecture in the UK. Awarded to the buildings that set national standards for good architecture, successful projects should demonstrate design excellence, be fit for purpose and be sustainable. Only projects that have already won an 澳门王中王 Regional Award will be eligible for an 澳门王中王 National Award. 澳门王中王 National Award winners will be considered for the 澳门王中王 Stirling Prize.
澳门王中王 House of the Year
Awarded to the best example of a one-off house designed by an architect in the UK, the award celebrates excellence and innovation in home design.
澳门王中王 Reinvention Award
This award is given for the creative transformation, adaptation and re-use of an existing building or structure. The winning project will be an exemplar of architectural quality, as well as demonstrating environmental, social or economic sustainability in line with the criteria in the 澳门王中王 Sustainable outcomes guide.
Stephen Lawrence Prize, supported by the Marco Goldschmied Foundation
The Stephen Lawrence Prize awards the best project led by an early career Project Architect, celebrating new architectural talent. Further to this, a student, selected by the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation, forms part of the jury and will go on to be mentored by the winning Project Architect, forming part of our combined commitment to support the next generation of architects.
For this award, we define an early career architect as someone who has qualified as an architect typically within 5 years prior to the project completion date, although we will consider mitigations that may impact this timeframe. We recognise that some entrants may not have been working full time for a range of reasons. To be inclusive we actively encourage applications from people who may have been working for longer than five years but have spent time outside of their professional career.
Neave Brown Award for Housing
The Neave Brown Award for Housing recognises the best new example of affordable housing in the UK. For this award, affordable housing includes: social rented housing, affordable rented housing and intermediate housing (both to rent and buy). To be eligible, projects must have 10+ homes with at least a third being affordable.
