RIBA Lubetkin prize shortlist announced

Architects Wilkinson Eyre, SCDA, TR Hamzah and Yeang and CPG and Foster + Partners have been shortlisted for the RIBA Lubetkin Prize.

The prize is awarded to a British designer for a building outside of the EU.

The buildings shortlisted include the Guangzhou International Finance Centre in China, the tallest building in the world by a UK architect; the Solaris science research and development centre in Singapore; the One KL apartment development in Malaysia and Foster + Partner’s highly imaginative Sperone Westwater gallery in New York City.

Angela Brady, RIBA President, said: “These cutting-edge buildings show the leading role that architects play in creating low-energy living and working spaces, even in extreme environmental conditions.”
