52 projects selected as 2023 RIBA London Awards winners

The Royal Institute of Architects (RIBA) has just announced a slate of 52 winning projects as part of this year’s RIBA London Awards, highlighting the best projects from around the British capital.

Among the firms represented, Mæ, Hayhurst & Co, and Hawkins\Brown each placed two designs on the list of winners. Benedetti Architects’ two-year-old expansion of the British Academy of Film & Television Arts Headquarters near Piccadilly Circus also made the list in the wake of news that the firm’s overhaul of RIBA’s facilities at 66 Portland Place is being paused for at least one year now due to cost concerns. 

Also among the selected winners was the LSE’s new The Marshall Building by Grafton Architects and the City of London Academy in Shoreditch Park by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios. 

RIBA President Simon Allford said: “These projects, selected by a rigorous peer review process, represent the very best of the region’s new architecture. Inspiring buildings and spaces bring joy to all our lives, and this year’s award winners certainly fit that bill.”

Each project will now be entered in the running for the RIBA National Award, which is set to be announced on June 22nd.
