RIBA announces six-candidate Stirling Prize shortlist for 2023
The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) has just announced a six-candidate shortlist for the 2023 RIBA Stirling Prize, recognizing the best achievements in building in the country over the past year in what is now the award’s 27th edition. The shortlist features schemes for housing, higher education, cultural connection, artists, and elder care that offer what the organization says are “genuinely inspiring solutions to our most pressing problems” while promoting, among other values, RIBA’s push for sustainable outcomes a year after the Prize was marred by critical debate surrounding the subject. "The 2023 Stirling Prize shortlist illustrates why architecture matters to all of us. These six remarkable buildings offer thoughtful, creative responses to the really complex challenges we're facing today. Whether it's tackling loneliness, building communities, or preserving our heritage, these projects lay out bold blueprints for purposeful architecture,” RIBA's new President, Muyiwa Oki, added, speaking of each project’s tenets and social mission. Jury members Niall McLaughlin, Mona Chalabi, Armstrong Yakubu, Rachael Owens, and Marek Suchocki all worked under the guidance of this year’s Chair, OMA Partner Ellen van Loon, to select finalists based on three in-person assessments and the architect’s ability to overcome challenges latent in the work, which was further subject to a range of different criteria. The finalists will be presented in an exhibition held at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place headquarters gallery from September 14th onwards. The winner is set to be announced on October 19th at RIBA’s special Stirling Prize Ceremony in Manchester. Other awards will also be presented there.
