Welcome to the Hadrian Awards
Celebrating and Promoting Excellence in Architecture and Design in the North East of England and Cumbria
The Hadrian Awards are the principal awards scheme for architecture and design in the North of England; they celebrate and promote the best in architecture and the design of the built environment in the North of England. The Hadrian Awards demonstrate the value of the high quality design to quality of life, to the environment, to the public, clients and funders, to communities and to professionals. The awards are a biennial scheme and this is the 20th year that they have been running. They are the only professionally assessed awards scheme in the region focused on good practice across the whole of the built environment, including architecture, urban design and landscape design. In addition to running the biennial awards scheme we are currently developing a directory of best practice which aims to categorize and increase accessibility to previous winners. In the future we hope to deliver this resource in parallel to a programme of events aimed at promoting and supporting the directory.
The 2009 Awards are now open for entries and will close on June 29th 2009.
The ceremony will take place on October 8th 2009
For further information about what the scheme is looking for, who can enter, how the schemes are assessed, promotion and how to enter please see www.hadrianawards.com/about or contact us at info@hadrianawards.com
