Winners announced in Sunshine Coast Regional Architecture Awards

Eleven outstanding local projects have been honoured at the Australian Institute of Architects’ 2014 Sunshine Coast Regional Architecture Awards, held tonight at Outrigger Little Hastings Street Resort and Spa, Noosa.

Twenty-two projects were entered in the Awards with 11 projects (see list below) being awarded Regional Commendations by the jury and progressing to the Queensland Architecture Awards to be announced in Brisbane on 20 June.

In addition to a Regional Commendation, The Beach Box by OGE Group Architects was presented with the Gabriel Poole Award for House of the Year.

‘The utilisation of ‘once used’ shipping containers provides a robust and cost effective opportunity to re-engage with the beach culture and mixed use zoning of Buddina. The grouping provides separate private zones with pop outs for greater internal widths, linking with decks and courtyards and a simple skillion roof over entry referencing modest beach house vernacular. This playful use of containers, engages simple yet appropriate interiors and integration with the landscape. However, its power lies in the way it engages with the street and greater public domain through blurred internal/external and public/private boundaries, street furniture and through its honest and engaging presentation,’ the jury said.

The Post World War 2 Development on the Coast and the Moffat Beach Pilot Study, coordinated by Roger Todd Architect was awarded Regional Project of the Year.

‘It is hoped this unique study and website will alert council, architects, building designers, town planners and the general public to the long term advantages in better conservation of post-World War 2 heritage. It provides inspiration for new works and adaptive reuse and a platform to continue recording built history and heritage,’ the jury said.

A special Enduring Architecture Prize was awarded to Syrenuse, Mooloolaba by Noel Robinson Architects.

‘Syrenuse apartments by Noel Robinson Architects was built in 1981. Its innovative slab and 6 x 6 grid meant the slender structure could provide fire protection while allowing full height glazing and connection to its view and aspect. Its organic form marked Mooloobah as a contemporary destination at the time and it remains a benchmark for mid-high rise development,’ the jury commented.

Winners of Darling Downs/West Moreton Regional Architecture Awards announced

Four outstanding projects have been honoured at the Australian Institute of Architects’ 2014 Darling Downs/West Moreton Regional Architecture Awards, held tonight at Insight Gallery in Toowoomba.

A total of 11 projects including a library, a church, schools, medical and care facilities, and a variety of houses were entered in the Awards with three projects (see list below) being awarded Regional Commendations by the jury and progressing to the Queensland Architecture Awards to be announced in Brisbane on 20 June.

Faith Lutheran College Library by Fulton Trotter Architects took home the William Hodgen Award for Building of the Year.

‘This library addition to the college campus creates a much needed focal point for the school. It lifts the perception of the campus to a higher level. A multi -functional space has been added that connects to the rural landscape and creates a valuable and engaging covered gathering space as well,’ the jury noted.

The Darling Downs/West Moreton House of the Year award went to Thorn by aardvark.

The jury describes the winner as ‘[an] engaging design for a contemporary family home. The use of a creative palette of natural materials, quality finishes and subtle colours has created successful and welcoming interior spaces. Natural heating and cooling has been achieved through the thoughtful placement of thermal mass and cross ventilation breeze ways.’

A special Enduring Architecture Prize was presented to St Alban’s Church by Lund Hutton Newell Black & Paulson. ‘This is a remarkable building and stands the test of time with its materials and form and clearly demonstrates the power of Architecture,’ the jury said.

Darling Downs/West Moreton Jury Coordinator and Juror, Gavan Reilly (Gavan Reilly Architect), and Jurors Greg Kratzmann (Greg Kratzmann Architects) and Kerry Martin (Aspect Architects and Project Managers) assisted the 2014 State Awards Jury Director, Liam Proberts, (bureau^proberts), Deputy Director, Paul Uhlmann (Paul Uhlmann Architects), and State Jurors Catherine Baudet (Ferrier Baudet Architects), Mark Jones (Architectus Brisbane) and Paul Curran (PUSH) with selecting the worthy recipients of the Regional Commendations.

Winners celebrated at Gold Coast/Northern Rivers Regional Architecture Awards

Eleven local projects have been honoured at the Australian Institute of Architects’ 2014 Gold Coast/Northern Rivers Regional Architecture Awards tonight.

A total of 16 projects including a golf club, health clinics, hospitals, libraries and a variety of houses were entered in the Awards with ten projects (see list below) being awarded Regional Commendations by the jury and progressing to the Queensland Architecture Awards to be announced in Brisbane on 20 June.

Gold Coast/Northern Rivers Regional Jury Coordinator and Juror David Brown (Sunland Group) and Jurors Katherine Rickard (Mode Design) and Chris Gee (Coast Arc) assisted the 2014 Awards Jury Director, Liam Proberts (bureau^proberts), Deputy Director, Paul Uhlmann (Paul Uhlmann Architects), and State Jurors Catherine Baudet (Ferrier Baudet Architects), Mark Jones (Architectus) and Paul Curran (PUSH) with selecting the worthy recipients of the Regional Commendations.

The jury awarded the Gold Coast/Northern Rivers House of the Year to Dolphin Court Residence by ME.

‘This waterfront dwelling demonstrates a refined piece of site planning and building detailing, enhancing its function as a family home. This is an excellent resolution of canal and cul-de-sac living, providing a sense of delight, referencing past coastal values and capturing the spirit of place,’ the jury said.

CRAB Studio’s Abedian School of Architecture took out the Gold Coast/Northern Rivers Building of the Year.

‘The Abedian School of Architecture is a clear expression of an aspirational approach to design education. The idea of a collaborative learning is evident and complete in the entire building through its exquisite concrete structure, walls and surfaces to the furniture and elements of design process that inhabit the space.’

To celebrate the work of local architects, Gold Coast/Northern Rivers regional jury members selected Capri on Via Roma by BDA Architecture as the inaugural recipient of the Regional Building of the Year.

‘A lively reinvention of Sir Bruce Smalls’ 1960’s Capri Commercial Centre optimises its waterfront location with expansive decking areas, capturing postcard views of Surfers Paradise. Exposed services and slab soffits sit comfortably with coloured seamless slab floors, while strong skillion roof forms recall the beach house heritage of the northern Gold Coast.’

A special Enduring Architecture Prize was presented to DBI Design (formerly Media 5) for the Sheraton Mirage.

National Architecture Awards take centre stage at Sydney Opera House

Winners of the Institute’s 2013 National Architecture Awards, Australia’s highest architecture accolades, were announced Thursday 7 November at the nation’s most iconic venue, Sydney Opera House.

The jury awarded 38 projects a total of 55 awards and commendations across the 12 national categories, selected from the 166 eligible award winners that progressed following Chapter Architecture Awards held earlier in the year. Each state and territory was represented in the winning selection.

Consistent in this year’s awards is the focus on public spaces and community engagement – from small projects to major commercial developments, public impact and experience were key concerns for architects and clients alike.
‘We were thrilled to see so many buildings and places that were engaging with social impacts beyond their immediate brief, offering something really significant to society at a higher level … architecture which is not merely responsible, but which is generous,’ Jury Chair, Shelley Penn said.

Awarded projects including Hamer Hall by ARM Architecture, Darling Quarter by fjmt and Perth Arena by ARM & CCN – Joint Venture Architects are large-scale examples of successful urban architecture which benefits both the direct users as well as people who experience the works in passing.

The external spaces of these projects have positively influenced the habits of the cities’ inhabitants, be it through additional access points to the city, public parkland, or increased safety features for pedestrians, and effectively demonstrate how excellent design outcomes can extend beyond commercial requirements to enhance the lives of entire communities.

At the other end of the scale, Djakanimba Pavilions by Insideout Architects, the winner of the inaugural Nicholas Murcutt Award for Small Project Architecture, took a modest budget and created an adaptable cultural space that is helping to drive regeneration and growth to the local Indigenous community of Beswick, Northern Territory.

‘These projects offer a legacy of positive urban spaces, connections and approaches that will influence how their cities function and are perceived,’ Shelley Penn commented.

Awarded projects include:

Western Australia’s Perth Arena by ARM & CCN – Joint Venture Architects, which received the Sir Zelman Cowen Award for Public Architecture, the Institute’s most prestigious award for an architecture project.

A weekender along Victoria’s Great Ocean Road, Fairhaven Residence, designed by John Wardle Architects took out the Residential Architecture – Houses category, winning the coveted Robin Boyd Award.

Parliament House by Mitchell Giurgola and Thorp, which was celebrated with the National Enduring Architecture Award, 24 years after winning the Sir Zelman Cowen Award for Public Architecture, The symbolic Australian masterpiece reached its 25 year milestone this year, qualifying for the award.

In addition, for the first time in the Awards’ history, a social housing project has been selected as the most outstanding piece of Residential Architecture – Multiple Housing. MGS Architects took home the award for their McIntyre Drive Social Housing Altona project, impressing the jury with its ‘verve, skill and serious social commitment’.
