HT awarded Selinunte Prize 04.07.22

Haworth Tompkins has received a Selinunte Prize, from the AIAC (Italian Association of Architecture and Criticism). Director Chris Fellner attended the annual symposium in Sicily to receive this honour and deliver a lecture on our work in relation to this year’s topic, ‘Regeneration, Renovation, Restart’. Over the course of the festival, eight architectural awards are presented, and Haworth Tompkins have received their only International prize. The jury, led by AIAC president Luigi Prestinenza Puglisi, selected HT for ‘their elegant yet functional approach and attention to context. For their use of materials, interpreted in creative, innovative, and sustainable ways capable of generating design solutions endowed with intelligence, especially when applied to cultural regeneration projects such as schools and theatres. And finally, for always placing people at the centre: their collaborators to whom they always give a voice, but also - and above all - everyone who will enjoy and use their spaces, recognising the social purpose of architecture.’ Image by Moreno Maggi - courtesy AIAC Architects meet in Selinunte 2022
