WINNER:
LEWIS GLUCKSMAN GALLERY, CORK BY O'DONNELL & TUOMEY
-
The Lewis Glucksman Gallery cleverly blends together a rich palette of materials with a complex structural form that result in a simple, yet beautiful building. The project has not only created a huge buzz in Ireland through O'Donnell and Tuomey's impeccable design, but also for their use of galvanized steel. The judges praised the design, conception and meticulous planning of the project. |

SECOND PRIZE:
MOSSBOURNE COMMUNITY ACADEMY, LONDON BY RICHARD ROGERS PARTNERSHIP
_
Richard Rogers Partnership produced a school building that provides children with a safe, open and accessible learning environment in clearly identifiable facilities, giving children and staff a sense of belonging and ownership. In combination with timber, the use of galvanized steel both structurally and aesthetically gives added robustness and boldness to its design and makes a very strong statement.

HIGHLY COMMENDED:
11 COUTTS CRESCENT, LONDON NW5 BY ANDREW BURRIDGE ARCHITECTURE
-
Andrew Burridge Architects were commended for the clever design of this London conservatory, which has been positioned pavilion-like, in the middle of the garden and is joined to the house by a glass corridor. Galvanizing was used as a permanent, self-finished, maintenance-free material ideally framing the glass and reflecting the colour of the Welsh slate paving.

HIGHLY COMMENDED:
"GALVANISED" SCULPTURAL SERIES BY KEITH WILSON

With "Galvanised", British artist Keith Wilson presented a wonderful series of large galvanized steel structures, influenced by cattle markets and animal pens that retain a distinct agricultural character.
