The winners of the 2019 National Architecture Awards were announced on Thursday 7 November.
View all the winning and commended projects.
A total of 78 entries, spanning the corners of the globe and every state and territory, have been shortlisted across 14 categories by the national jury for the Australian Institute of Architects’ coveted National Architecture Awards.
Almost one in four projects shortlisted for the 7 November ceremony are located outside the country’s major cities. The national jury, led by Immediate Past President Clare Cousins, were encouraged by the volume and strength of projects in regional and remote locations across the country.
‘In selecting the most outstanding projects from around the country we were heartened that such meaningful and transformational work is being commissioned in regional areas where projects have the capacity to act as incubators for regional growth and to stimulate community engagement,’ Clare Cousins said.
From a total field of 895 entries in the 2019 awards program, 185 projects were eligible for national judging following success at their respective state and territory events earlier in the year.
