    WATCH: Highlights from the world of architecture and design.

    The highly regarded competition for the title of Australia’s best architecture in 2020 has moved a step closer with the announcement of the Australian Institute of Architects’ National Architecture Awards shortlist.

    From an original entry field of 806 projects, 180 entries progressed through the state and territory Chapter Awards for national consideration earlier this year. The national jury has selected 76 entries for the shortlist that are now vying for recognition across 14 categories.

    News highlights

    Tasked with judging this year’s entries, the national jury comprised jury chair Professor Helen Lochhead, Jefa Greenaway (founding director, Greenaway Architects), Jennie Officer (founding director, Officer Woods Architects), Kerry Clare (director, Clare Design) and Tim Greer (director, Tonkin Zulaikha Greer Architects). 

    While the global coronavirus pandemic required changes to this year’s judging logistics, jury chair Professor Helen Lochhead said the process was challenging but also inspiring.

    “Reflecting on the projects we shortlisted, the jury was struck by the creativity, passion and accomplishment of established and emerging architects alike,” said Prof Lochhead.  

    “While the pandemic prevented the jury from conducting the usual in-person visits this year, we were still able to experience projects across Australia, animated by people and an array of climatic conditions, on a virtual platform.”

    Recognising that great architecture requires great clients, Prof Lochhead said that the jury was “privileged to see the legacies of many exceptional, motivated clients across Australia – from those painstakingly restoring precious and modest heritage, to those, both private and public clients, commissioning enduring and uplifting settings for now and the future.”

    For the first time in the pre-eminent architecture award program’s almost 40-year history, anyone from around Australia, and around the world, is invited to tune into the announcement of the winners during a free live-streamed event from 7pm AEDT on Thursday November 5. Register to view the awards ceremony here. 

    The chance to engage with clients and end-users as well as the architects made these virtual project visits all the richer.
