QUEENSLAND

02 QLD Image: Christopher Frederick Jones

JURY OVERVIEW
This year’s entries ranged in location, from Birdsville in the west to Lady Elliott Island in the east, and from Port Douglas in the north to Byron Bay in the south. Budgets also varied widely – from $60,000 to $135 million. The successful projects exhibit a thoughtful sense of place, occasion and history, with many being the outcome of masterplanning, urban design and landscape considerations. Many regional entries were recognized at the state level, which is heartening, as is the high number of projects in the public architecture and urban design categories. This reflects both an increase in community-focused work by architects, and commitment by councils, governments and other organizations to engaging architects to achieve their public programs.

TASMANIA

JURY OVERVIEW
The most pleasing aspect of this year’s awards was the number of public buildings entered. This is significant for a small state and is perhaps a sign that the government’s economic stimulus package has been well spent in Tasmania. There were surprisingly few residential projects. Each stage of the awards process reveals more information about the entries, often simply confirming what we had originally thought, but in a few instances the architect’s presentation and in particular the visits elevated projects from good to exceptional. This is where the reward of architectural experience far exceeds photographic perceptions. The awarded projects display great skill, imagination and passion from the architects, while their clients’ trust has been rewarded with buildings of significant merit, reflecting the healthy state of architecture in Tasmania.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA

JURY OVERVIEW
With eighty-one submissions this year, it appears that the GFC has had little or no impact on the projects already committed or on the quality of work being delivered by South Australian architects. Once again interstate architects have returned to South Australia to collect a share of awards – of the twenty-eight awards presented, four went to interstate architects. But the standout practices – Hassell and Phillips/Pilkington Architects – are Adelaide-based. Hassell received five awards in total, with four different awards being for the same project – the Adelaide Zoo Entrance Precinct. Phillips/Pilkington Architects received four awards in total, two in their own right and two in association with H2o architects.

AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

JURY OVERVIEW
Despite economic gloom, 2010 saw thirty-three ACT projects entered, across a range of project types, scales and program complexities. This year the jury has recognized a number of smaller projects that successfully investigate achievable solutions for living in a more sustainable, albeit simpler way. One project demonstrates the possibilities of economical but comfortable living in thirty-five square metres in an underused car park corner. Another carefully enhances the inherent good design of a small 1960s house, making a compact but wonderful family home. Both these projects stand out. When everything else is telling us to up-size, these projects demonstrate a sustainable approach to consumption and produce spaces that will be rewarding for life.
Finally, I would like to thank my fellow jurors for their depth of judgment and their diligent but good-natured carriage of duties.

NEW SOUTH WALES

JURY OVERVIEW
With ESD now an integral part of architecture, the strongest theme this year was projects that responded strongly and intelligently to site conditions. This especially explains the strength, innovation and diversity of single houses – best expressed in the Neeson Murcutt Whale Beach House. Tectonic and unconventional forms coupled with uncovered materials left to gracefully weather figured strongly, with exceptional expression in Candalepas Associates’ All Saints Primary School, James Stockwell’s Snowy Mountains House, and Collins and Turner’s Two Beach Houses at Boomerang Beach. These, and the other award-winning projects, set the standard for future achievement and demonstrate a way forward.

NORTHERN TERRITORY

JURY OVERVIEW
Exactly ten years ago, I visited Yuendemu as a juror, and the jury awarded the “Lolly Houses” the Tracey Memorial Award. This year, stage 1 of the Warlpiri Youth Development has been built in the town centre. This, the Desert People Centre and the new Central Land Council Building in Alice Springs show how far we have come in creating authentic responses to developing future Indigenous cultures.
The adaption and additions to the Banyan House Therapeutic Community Centre and new dormitory wings at Kormilda College, Darwin, provide important services and social built fabric for institutional typologies that respond to Top End demographics.
The only single residential entry, The Pink House, transfers the living space from the upstairs of more traditional “houses on stilts” to the ground level where internal, external and landscape spaces can be truly integrated. The project is a potential prototype for future housing in the tropics.
A bright new computer centre for children is a refreshing addition to the energetic reformation of the 60s Essington School Campus. The Skycity expansion of the casino is the first in a series of major improvements that contribute to Darwin as a major tourist node in the southern Asia region.
The Charles Darwin University Chancellory Building shows a very modern approach to a tropical building. It has been designed with working space wings either side of a central glazed atrium, which acts like an internal court or street, offering a generous and inviting space to campus users.
This year, although entry numbers were small, the collection of nominations offers an insight into the way architects in the tropics continue to deal with green and cultural issues, sustainability and consideration of the natural and urban landscape.

WESTERN AUSTRALIA

JURY OVERVIEW
The quantity and quality of entrants in this year’s awards again demonstrate the striving for design excellence of the members of the architectural profession in WA. While the award winners get the glory, the effort of the voluntary juries assessing the projects goes relatively unheralded. The preferred process is for entries to be visited by the juries, where possible. With four jurors in approximately ten categories and around a hundred-odd entries scattered across the state, this represents an immense effort. The profession is indebted to these jurors, for without them there would be no awards as we know them. The good news for the jurors is that they get an opportunity to experience their colleagues’ work, which often may not be normally accessible.
