NSW EndurIng Architecture Award
2024 NSW EndurIng Architecture Award
Do you have a longstanding, favourite building in NSW you feel should be recognised with an award?
Open to buildings of at least 25 years of age, the Enduring Architecture Award recognises achievement for the design of buildings of outstanding merit, which remain important as high quality works of architecture when considered in a contemporary context. Nominations are welcome from Institute members, non-members and non-architects, but must provide adequate content for consideration by the jury. .
ENTRY FOR NSW ENDURING ARCHITECTURE AWARD
Please note that this award category is designed to recognise the enduring features of the original work, not any substantial adaptive re-use, which should be considered under Category 7: HERITAGE.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
- Projects will be works considered technically advanced or innovative for their time, which remain symbolically significant, are exponents of creative leadership or are works of national significance
- Recommendations can be submitted via an online form each year following an open call for nominations
- Nominations must provide adequate content for consideration by the jury, including a project description and/or a statement of significance, as well as any materials which may assist the jury such as drawings and photographs
- Please note that a short statement related to the heritage/cultural significance of the building is required
If the building already has a heritage listing, the statement of significance can be found by searching for the relevant listing here.
If the building has no formal listing, please try to outline the project’s significance yourself. If you are preparing your own statement, the Institute’s Register of Significant Buildings provides a guide for what should be included in a Statement of Significance:
