Queensland Architecture Awards 2020 winners

The Australian Institute of Architects’ Queensland Architecture Awards have been announced via a virtual presentation. The jury, made up of renowned architects and academics from across the state, awarded more than 20 projects across 14 categories including residential, commercial, sustainable architecture and urban design.

Jury Chair, and Director of COX Architecture, Richard Coulson described the winning designs as contributing to the progression of architecture in the State. “Each of the awarded projects reflect a response to the environment in their own way. The projects include opportunities that allow many members of the Queensland public to benefit from good architectural design. They include innovation in technology and materials balanced with a pragmatic response to climate – a hallmark of Queensland Architecture.”

The architects who designed Queensland University of Technology’s Peter Coaldrake Education Precinct, along with Bundaberg’s Mon Repos Turtle Centre each received triple honours. Among the Turtle Centre’s accolades was the Queensland Architecture Medallion — the highest honour awarded to any project in the state.

All projects that received a ‘named’ award and/or ‘state’ award will now be eligible for the Australian Institute of Architects’ National Architecture Awards (winners to be announced later in the year).
