Clem

Other shortlisted projects included the £25 billion Elizabeth Line, The National Portrait Gallery and the 20 year-long re-development of King’s Cross. It was a rather unreal experience to find ourselves amongst such illustrious company.

Credit for this must, of course, go to the architect of Wraxall Yard, Clementine Blakemore. She is a dazzling young talent.

WRAXALL YARD SHORTLISTED FOR 2024 RIBA STIRLING PRIZE

It was a very exciting moment when it was announced that we were one of six projects shortlisted for the Stirling Prize, the annual award presented by the RIBA for the best building in the UK.

RIBA STEPHEN LAWRENCE PRIZE

Clem, the architect for Wraxall Yard, has won the prestigious RIBA Stephen Lawrence Prize, awarded to the best early-career architect in the UK, for her work at Wraxall Yard. Many congratulations to her and also our sincerest thanks for designing and delivering such a beautiful project for us.

Before his tragic death Stephen Lawrence was pursuing a career as an architect. His mother, Baroness Lawrence, was on the judging panel and it was a great privilege to meet her and show her around.

We wish Clem all the best for what promises to be quite a career.
