2019 Victorian Architecture Awards Shortlist announced

2019 Victorian Architecture Awards Shortlist announced
Urban EditorialApril 11, 2019

The shortlist for the 2019 Victorian Architecture Awards has been revealed with .89 projects shortlisted across 14 categories celebrating public, residential, heritage and regional architecture.

Run by the Victorian Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects, the 2019 shortlist was whittled down from a total of 248 entries by independent juries.

“At a time where we are acutely aware of the issues that our industry is facing due to increased procurement and economic pressures, the awards provide an opportunity to acknowledge the significant efforts made by architects, clients, consultants and contractors to provide quality built outcomes.

Most importantly, sustainability in design needs to be understood through the lens of longevity, going beyond short-term gains and visions. This is a prevailing message highlighted in our shortlisted projects this year. “All good buildings require a considered and collaborative design process. It is these projects that provide the best outcomes for delivering permanent benefits to communities at large"

The design outcomes achieved via the shortlisted public architecture projects define the important role that the public realm plays in providing exemplar-built outcomes that support our growing communities and provide a legacy for future generations.

With population density rising across our cities, public space becomes an incredibly valuable commodity – not only from an economic perspective, but more importantly for the wellbeing of our communities.”

-  Amy Muir, Victorian Chapter President

All entries into the 2019 awards program will form part of an exhibition at No Vacancy Gallery, which will run until 21 April, and will highlight the array of architecture across the state.

The winners of the 2019 Victorian Architecture Awards will be announced at the official awards dinner on 28 June. Winners of each category will then be eligible for recognition in the National Architecture Awards program.
