Our project The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art has won one of this year’s NLA Award in the Built Education category. The New London Awards recognise the very best in architecture, planning and development in the capital. 30 projects were announced as winners at the awards which were held at the Guildhall and was attended by the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan who gave the keynote speech.
The Bishop Edward King Chapel was among the winners of the ‘The UK’s Best Modern Churches’ competition which celebrates the best churches built within the last 50 years, announced at a ceremony held at Lambeth Palace in London. The open competition was run by the National Churches Trust, in association with the Ecclesiastical Architects and Surveyors Association and the 20th Century Society.
Of the top ten selected winners, the Chapel for Ripon College was the most recent nomination, with eight of the ten built in the late 50s and early 60s. The scheme was described as “a treat to look at” and “architecturally elegant, with a lovely intimate reflective interior.”
