House of the Year 2024

The RIBA House of the Year is awarded to the best new house designed by an architect in the UK

House of the Year shortlist 2024

The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) has announced the shortlist for RIBA House of the Year 2024, the annual award for the UK’s best new home. 

Located across England and Wales, the houses on the shortlist have been drawn from the wider cohort of 2024 RIBA Award winners, representing the UK’s best new architecture. This year’s final six represent a broad mix of different design approaches that are located across deeply rural and densely urban areas.

Commenting on the winning projects, RIBA President Muyiwa Oki, said: 
“These six homes show how we can deliver high-quality residential architecture with impact. Exemplars in sensitive restoration, climate-conscious design and ingenious urban placemaking – they each present a bold, creative solution to meet housing needs. Individually, they are truly remarkable, breathtaking pieces of architecture; together they offer scalable solutions to issues faced by our built environment – from reinventing existing buildings to working with complex and constrained sites. However, their true success lies in the health and wellbeing of those that live inside them: there can be no greater mark of achievement for an architect.”
