The Bishop Edward King Chapel has been named as the Gold Award winner at this year’s Wood Awards. The project was selected as overall winner from among over 300 entries and was also announced as the recipient of the prize for the structural category.
The chairman of the judges described the chapel as “a stunning and worthy Gold Award winner.” He went on to say that the project “…embodies the Wood Awards’ celebration of excellence in design and craftsmanship in wood, and even exceeds the hope that the building might be a ‘work of art that would touch the spirit’.”
