The 2015 National Architecture Awards were announced by the Australian Institute of Architects on 5 November in Brisbane.
From an eligible 185 projects, 61 were shortlisted and 42 received national honours across 14 categories.
Projects of all scales were recognized in this year’s awards, from “a nationally significant cultural destination” to a very small barn in Tasmania.
The jury this year, chaired by immediate past president David Karotkin, noted the number of award-winning projects where the architects undertook an ambitious level of experimentation. “The inventiveness witnessed by the jury was incredible,” Karotkin said. “These architects have demonstrated the benefits of embracing risk as a necessary ingredient in achieving genuine design innovation.”
The jury visited 58 sites across Australia during their 13-day national tour. Karotkin noted, “the joy that emanated from every project consistently energized the jury.”
