WINNERS OF THIS YEAR’S RSUA DESIGN AWARDS WILL BE UNVEILED AT A CEREMONY ON MAY 8 IN THE ULSTER UNIVERSITY BELFAST CAMPUS… Seven projects shortlisted for Northern Ireland’s best architecture in 2025
Seven finalists have been named for the Royal Society of Ulster Architects (RSUA) Design Awards 2025, recognising the best works of architecture in Northern Ireland. The shortlisted projects are: • One Elmwood, Queen’s University Belfast (Hawkins/Brown and RPP Architects) • Roddy McCorley Heritage Centre, Belfast (McGurk Architects) • Silver Bark House, Hillsborough (Marshall McCann Architects) • Student Hub, Queen’s Business School Belfast (TODD Architects) • Light House, Holywood (McGonigle McGrath Architects) • Templemore Baths, Belfast (McAdam Design and Consarc Design Group) • New Gate Arts and Culture Centre, Derry/Londonderry (McGurk Architects)
Ciarán Fox, Director of RSUA, said, “This year’s shortlist is a wonderful blend of the old and the new. It’s great to see innovative architecture breathing life into existing structures. It’s one of the most sustainable moves a client can make. We also have a couple of new builds which are excellent examples of successfully delivering the low-carbon agenda in a beautiful way.” “We are proud to recognise and celebrate the architects, clients and wider teams who have contributed to these projects, each demonstrating elements of delight, invention, or ambition deserving of further examination.” This year, local designer Sara O’Neill joins a distinguished panel of architects from Ireland and the UK including Trevor Leaker from AECOM, Bob Allies from Allies and Morrison and Charlotte Sheridan from Sheridan Woods.
