Conservation Awards

Conservation Awards

RIBA members are invited to submit projects at the time of completion for any of the four categories, though only one category will be judged per year. Submissions, so long as they meet the criteria, are accepted at any time leading up to the deadline for each of the four categories. See the submission form.



The intention will be to reward excellence in a conservation work and to set out the winning project as an example to others. Therefore, the work nominated should demonstrate adherence to well-established principles of conservation repair.

  • Pure and expert repair - Submission deadline: Friday, 26 June 2009

  • New building in an historic setting - Submission deadline: Friday, 23 June 2012

Buildings or building works may be eligible for more than one category and may be entered more than once. Winning schemes may receive awards/ commendations in more than one category.
