🏆New buildings with a construction cost greater than £10 million: The Sir William Henry Bragg Building, University of Leeds
👷Architect: ADP Architecture

This is a very successful combination of new and old, uniting pre-existing post-war structures with a substantial contemporary insertion. There was a confidence, rigour and even muscularity to the development as a whole. Clever design decisions mean that the bulk of the new build is largely disguised.

🏆New Buildings with a construction cost of up to £10 million - Maggie's Yorkshire
👷Architect: Heatherwick Studio

This is a warm, beautiful and welcoming place with an almost spiritual feel. It has a calmness and serenity which belies its surroundings, and attention to detail its choice of materials and ex*****on is exemplary. It has an organic quality with the external landscaping becoming part of the physical structure.

🎉Maggies also won the esteemed 'Project of the Year' award in 2023. Will you be the winner of the 2025 Project of the Year award? Get your entries in now!

🏆Adapted Buildings Winner 2023 - Opera North Works. Architect: Enjoy Design

This is a great adaptation of two buildings with very different pedigrees. The mid century building providing administrative and rehearsal space for Opera North now has high quality spaces which are fit for purpose. The public part of the scheme provides a sequential journey from the box office to the assembly room. The atrium space is bold and the fittings carefully conceived.
