Thirty-four projects were recognized at the 2014 Queensland Architecture Awards from the Australian Institute of Architects, presented on Friday 20 June at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.
On trend with other recently announced state awards where university buildings scooped several major accolades, The University of Queensland’s Advanced Engineering Buidling by Richard Kirk Architect and Hassell in joint venture received the F.D.G. Stanley Award for Public Architecture, the G. H. M. Addison Award for Interior Architecture, and the Harry Marks Award for Sustainable Architecture. The jury noted: “AEB expertly embraces setting and place and has created an exemplar of engagement with renewable resources and local industry. It is thoroughly considered and exquisitely detailed.”
Winning the Robin Dods Award for Residential Architecture – Houses (New), Charles Wright’s Stamp House was described by the jury as: “an extraordinary response to a very personal and adventurous brief. The concrete fabric chosen for permanence, robustness and thermal mass is placed on a man-made lake and shaped and patterned around its quirky personal spaces to somehow make its other worldly presence take its place in the world’s oldest and most pristine landscape.”
All projects receiving a named award or an architecture award progress to the 2014 National Architecture Awards to be announced in Darwin on 6 November.
