A destination winery, a grassroots-inspired regional art gallery and a converted fire station are among the 79 projects shortlisted for the 2016 Australian Institute of Architects’ National Architecture Awards.
The program received more than 890 entries across 14 categories this year, reinforcing Australia’s international reputation for innovative architecture. The 2016 jury comprising of Jon Clements (Chair), Rodney Eggleston, Abbie Galvin, Stuart Vokes and Fenella Kernebone, shortlisted 79 projects out of 209 entries deemed eligible following the extensive Chapter Award program held earlier in the year.
Describing the projects as ‘exceptional and inspiring’, Immediate Past President and 2016 national Jury Chair Jon Clements observed that the prestigious awards provide an unparalleled opportunity to showcase the extraordinary talent of Australian architects.
According to Clements, the evolution of the profession, coupled with the creativity and commitment of architects continues to raise the bar in design and leading practice. A number of projects were identified that delivered admirable outcomes from limited means, and highlighted the enduring value of architecture as well as the clear and demonstrable public benefit dividend.
One of the highlights of the National Architecture Awards is the People’s Choice Award that launches on World Architecture Day, Monday 3 October. Members of the public will once again have the opportunity to vote for their favourite residential project with the winner to be selected on the basis of the popular vote. All winners will be announced at an evening ceremony hosted by Fenella Kernebone on Thursday 3 November at the Ivy Ballroom, Sydney.
