The judging panel for this year’s 27-strong list includes Karen Anderson FRIAS, Lorraine Landels Hon FRIAS, Stuart McKnight RIBA, MUMA and OIe Wiig FRIAS.
RIAS president, Willie Watt, commented, “Year on year the quality of Scottish Architecture is on the rise. Despite an economic climate, which continues to squeeze fees and challenge professionals’ ability to deliver, Scotland’s architects are delivering work of truly international quality to serve our citizens and communities.
