Kingston School of Art wins RIBA London Awards 27.08.21

Kingston School of Art, our project for Kingston University has won a RIBA London Award. RIBA praised the ‘vibrant and imaginative exemplar of conservation in its truest sense’ as ‘a call to arms to love our existing buildings in all their shapes and sizes, and make them beautiful and functional once again.’ The project, already the recipient of AJ Retrofit and BREEAM awards, ‘should set a new standard in architecture today’. In addition to this, Kingston University has won RIBA London Client of the Year. Read the judge's summary here and more about the project here. The School of Art is open for tours by Project Architect Dan Tassell at the Open House London festival on September 10, book your place here.
