RIBA has named its 29 best new buildings of the year – including one project by AHMM, the practice of current institute president Simon Allford.

But while the Hawley Wharf mixed-use scheme in Camden is AHMM’s only project to win a 2022 National Award, Tim Ronalds Architects and Niall McLaughlin Architects both netted double victories.

Ronalds’ wins are for the practice’s Aisher House boarding block at Sevenoaks School and its LB Southwark SILS3 pupil-referral unit in south London. McLaughlin’s awards are for the Magdalen College Library at Cambridge University and the Masters Field Development at Oxford University.

Elsewhere, the RIBA National Award winners list ranges from Hopkins Architects’ 100 Liverpool Street net-zero office development in the City of London to Nissen Richards Studio’s new viewing tower at the Sutton Hoo Anglo Saxon burial site in Suffolk. (See box below for a full list of winners)

RIBA表示，2022年获奖项目的主要趋势包括团结社区、未来住房以及现有建筑的修复和适应。所有获奖项目现在都将进入斯特林奖的候选名单。

President Simon Allford said the latest National Award winners were a “powerful collection of buildings” that demonstrate great architecture can emerge in challenging situations, and offer hope at a time when the nation needs to unite to plan for a sustainable future.

“As we start to settle from the pandemic, I am particularly encouraged by the number and quality of new buildings designed to foster community,” he said.

“From local cultural hubs to reinvigorated accessible arts venues, these projects demonstrate the power of good architecture to lift spirits and enhance lives.

“I’m very pleased to see new and innovative solutions to meet the ever-growing demand for high quality, energy-efficient homes, showing what can be achieved by forward-thinking clients.

“从农村城镇边缘的开发到城市社会住房的升级，这些获胜者为英国住房的未来树立了新的标杆和愿景。”

Allford said he was also encouraged to see restoration and sensitive adaptation projects feature prominently among the 2022 winners.

“Retaining and reusing existing buildings is a crucial part of our low-carbon future,” he said.

Allford added that it was “particularly inspiring” to see the UK’s first secondary school to achieve Passivhaus accreditation among the winners – a direct reference to Architype’s Harris Academy at Sutton.
