RIAS reveals shortlist for Scotland’s building of the year

The Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland has named the five projects in the running for Scotland’s building of the year – one of which is Reiach and Hall Architects’ Forth Valley College – Falkirk Campus, which was last week shortlisted for the RIBA Stirling Prize 2022.

It is joined in the running for the Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award 2022 by another school project: Jedburgh Grammar Campus by Stallan-Brand Architecture & Design.

Also shortlisted are Moxon Architects’ Quarry Studios project in Aberdeenshire; Konishi Gaffney’s Lockerbie Sawmill; and Loader Monteith’s restoration and upgrade of the Category A-listed Modernist house High Sunderland, designed by Peter Womersley and completed in 1957.

The shortlist is drawn from thewinners of the 2022 RIAS Awards, which were announced in June.

Newly-appointed RIAS president Chris Stewart said the five contenders for the Doolan Award, which comes with a £10,000 cash prize, were all remarkable buildings.

他说:“我们的家、学校和办公室构成了我们日常生活的背景，今年的候选名单展示了建筑师如何将平凡变为非凡。”

“This year’s shortlist also highlights the relevance of architecture to many of society’s most pressing issues – whether that is climate change, young people’s mental health or the future of the workplace.

“I am proud of Scotland’s architecture profession and this year’s shortlist demonstrates why it should be celebrated.”

杜兰奖由建筑师兼企业家安德鲁·杜兰(Andrew Doolan)和RIAS于2002年创立，他的家人在他两年后去世后一直支持他。

Last year’s winner wasHoskins Architects’ extension and upgrade of Aberdeen Art Gallery. The jury for the 2022 award is Groupwork chair Amin Taha, V&A Dundee director Leonie Bell, and Collective Architecture director Jude Barber.
