Battersea Arts Centre is the Overall Winner at the New London Awards this year. Praised by judges including Ben Prosky, AIA New York, who said 'BAC is such an exquisite project. And it is exquisite in so many ways. There’s also a dedication to craft, to restoration, to design but not in a conventional way. I love this building because it is a teachable building.' Andreas Ruby commented that the project has an 'overarching significance that defies typologies, categories and any such things... It’s extremely generous in terms of how to deal with the existing' and Monica von Schmalensee added 'I believe this a statement for us in the jury about how we can reuse, rethink and rebuild – those three words that will be most important in the future.' Alongside this, BAC was awarded the Community Prize, given to the scheme that demonstrates the most positive and meaningful impact to its local community and is exemplary in its response to the social context while contributing to a sense of local identity. Earlier this month the arts centre also won the Experiencing Culture category.
