°ÄÃÅÍõÖÐÍõ North East Chair, Tim Bailey, praised the selection as ‘excellent’ and noted the vast breadth of the projects from new builds to conservation works and refurbishments. There’s even another restored pier on the list (only this time it’s in Sunderland).

He said projects at large and small scales and in urban, suburban and rural settings ‘illustrates the value and impact that great design can bring to any setting and all communities.’
