Twenty-three buildings and a masterplan for a new urban district in Cambridge have been shortlisted for RIBA East 2019 Awards.
Out of an original 42 entries in the East of England, twenty-four will now be considered for an RIBA Regional Award.
RIBA East regional director Louise Todd said: “We have seen some really impressive entries in the East of England this year. The range of projects clearly demonstrates the many specialist skills that practices can offer, from conservation work and re-imagining outdated buildings through to designing highly energy-efficient one-off homes and social housing. All the architects and their clients are to be heartily congratulated on making it onto this year’s shortlist.”
