Australian Institute of Architects announces 2021 National Architecture Awards winners

The winners of Australia's 2021 National Architecture Awards were announced Thursday in a live-streamed ceremony from the Australian Institute of Architects. This year marks the 40th edition of the awards. The jury noted that this edition presented a "rare" crop of public architecture, with notable works from Neeson Murcutt + Neille, Cox Architecture, and Kerry Hill. Projects ranged from a military barracks in Queensland to a coastal retreat in Malaysia. Winners were selected from the shortlist announced in September. A total of 30 awards were given out across the platform's ten categories. "These awards attest to our profession’s inventiveness, imagination, pulchritude, and multiplicity,” Chair Alice Hampson said in a statement. “Collectively, this year’s awarded works exhibit the richness, intelligence, viscerality, complexity, individuality, and delight of which Australian architecture is capable." Scroll down to see the full list of the latest award winners. COLORBOND AWARD FOR STEEL ARCHITECTURERead the full post on Bustler
