The 2016 RIBA Awards competition continues! A few weeks after the London Award announcements, the Institute just revealed 46 buildings as National Award winners. The RIBA National Awards celebrate the UK's most outstanding buildings, while offering insight into construction, design, and investment trends in the country.
An array of stunning projects by leading designers made the cut in this year's Nationals, with UK universities and colleges winning much of the jury's favor this time around, comprising nearly one quarter of the winning projects. Housing developments also made a strong impression again.
“As universities and colleges in the UK are competing for students from here and overseas, it is encouraging to see so much emphasis placed on the power of architecture to help institutions to attract students and stand out from the mediocre,” stated RIBA President Jane Duncan. “The RIBA National Awards put a spotlight on some of the smaller and unique, but no less ambitious, projects such as the Drawing Studio at Bournemouth University, Gloucester Services or the conservation and reinvigoration of Wilton’s Music Hall. They show that budget, location or many other challenges are no constraints to the production of superb quality architecture...”
In the coming months, the National Awardees will gear up for the next and final stage of the RIBA's yearlong competition cycle: the RIBA Stirling Prize for UK's Best Building of the Year. The Stirling Prize shortlist is expected to be announced on July 14, and the winner will be revealed October 6.
