A+DS and RIAS name student architecture award winners

July 18 2014

An exploration of inner town living in Peterhead and a civic theatre in Dalmarnock are amongst a raft of winners in a student architecture awards scheme, organised jointly by Architecture + Design Scotland and the RIAS.

5th year student Andy Stewart of the Scott Sutherland School of Architecture, was praised for ‘powerful’ work examining the regeneration of Peterhead through the introduction of new harbour housing.

Other winners on the night included 3rd year student Rebecca Goodson of Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture whose, ‘outstanding’ concept for a civic theatre in Dalmarnock won praise.

An urban design award meanwhile went to Stanislava Delieva of Strathclyde University for an ‘uplifting and visionary’ take on the derelict Govan Graving Docks,

Commenting on the awards A+DS chair, Karen Anderson, said: “… these awards and the supporting exhibition, allow visitors to see the high standard of architecture emerging from our schools of architecture.”

All winning work is now on public display at The Lighthouse, Glasgow, until 28 September.
