Southern Architecture Awards 2020: Shortlist revealed
Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) has announced 26 shortlisted projects in this year’s Southern Architecture Awards. The Institute says the finalists were chosen from a “strong roster of entries”.
The Southern Awards shortlist – which includes projects from Otago, was chosen by a jury led by Queenstown architect Stacey Farrell and including fellow architects Eliska Lewis (Wanaka) and Cameron Pollock (Auckland), and broadcaster Marcus Lush.
Jury convenor Ferrell says, “The shortlist includes outstanding examples of a wide range of the types of buildings that architects design. It is also great to see the difference good architecture is making in the communities of our region.”
The NZIA has noted that the COVID-19 lockdown has halted the usual jury visits to shortlisted projects. “Resumption of the visits or the adoption of alternative means of deciding award-winners are dependent on the national measures adopted to combat the COVID-19 pandemic,” the organisation says.
