More than 100 architecture projects have been shortlisted for the 2024 New South Wales Architecture Awards.
Ranging from the development of a surf club to an aquatic centre, train stations and housing projects, 126 projects have been shortlisted to the next round of the NSW Architecture Awards.
NSW Chapter President Adam Haddow said the awards were a chance to highlight the excellence of local practitioners and the value they brought to society.
“The Institute is dedicated to the promotion of Australian architects and architecture in both national and global arenas,” he said.
“Since 1981, we have upheld excellence in the profession by recognising best practice in the field through our National Architecture Awards program and inspiring others to continue striving to positively shape communities through architecture.”
Part of the National Architecture Awards, the NSW awards follow a rigorous judging process at all levels. Awards juries met for two days from February 17-18 to listen to 246 project presentations, and subsequently created the shortlist to continue to the final awards. Site visits to all shortlisted projects will occur in April.
Mr Haddow said this year’s entrants included more adaptive reuse projects as a percentage than ever before.
“This speaks to a societal shift that is refocusing energy towards reuse with the intent of redeploying embodied carbon,” he said.
“Architects are also increasingly acknowledging the impact of the built environment on the natural and cultural landscape, and particularly our impact on First Nations people. We are particularly excited by the number of projects that challenged convention and aimed to address Connecting to Country and Truth Telling.”
Categories include: Commercial Architecture, Educational Architecture, Heritage, Interior Architecture, Public Architecture, Residential Architecture – Houses (Alterations and Additions), Residential Architecture – Houses (New), Residential Architecture – Multiple Housing, Small Project Architecture, Sustainable Architecture and Urban Design.
Winners will be announced on 28 June 2023 at the NSW Architecture Awards.
