Following an extensive review of all the nominated projects, nine were shortlisted for the awards. These sites were all visited on 30 October by our expert panel of judges who selected five winners, one for each category (Conversion, Public Building, Redevelopment and Restoration) plus a winner for the award for Outstanding Design.
To mark the events 25th year, the nine shortlisted projects were also entered into the People's Choice award, voted for by the general public.
The awards were presented on Thursday 29 November during a presentation evening, sponsored by Durkan UK. Photos from the presentation evening can be found here.
Congratulations to everyone involved in the design and execution of the winning projects for achieving a significant contribution to the local environment.
