鈥淔rom colleges to cottages, the South proves to be ambitious at any scale. The shortlisted projects challenge conventions around re-use, materials, context, conservation and typologies - opening up conversations about setting, sustainability, and the stories behind each building.
鈥淭hese dialogues will no doubt continue as we visit the shortlist. Travelling the region visiting houses, halls, and even hides 鈥 it should make for a didactic few days.鈥
