The Australian Institute of Architects has announced the shortlist for the 2018 NSW Architecture Awards.
From a record field of more than 206 entries, 92 have been shortlisted by the jury across 10 categories, following an extensive schedule of site visits and presentations.
Peter Mould, chair of juries, said: “I have had the privilege of overseeing the awards program since 2016 and every year I appreciate the variety and richness of opinions generated by debate about architectural excellence.
“This year’s panel chairs were also challenged to determine an overall winning project, which will receive the newly introduced NSW Architecture Medallion”, he added. “There are a number of outstanding projects among this year’s entries, and deliberations are still underway.”
The winner of the inaugural NSW Architecture Medallion will be announced at the awards ceremony, along with the winners of the Sustainable Architecture Award, the Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture, the NSW Premier’s Prize, the City of Sydney Lord Mayor’s Prize and the Enduring Architecture Award.
The 2018 panel chairs were Annabel Lahz, Imogene Tudor, Graham Jahn, Marissa Looby and Heidi Pronk. NSW Country Division chair Tricia Helyar and Newcastle Committee chair Jeson Elsley were involved in the judging of the Blacket Prize for design excellence in a regional setting.
