Winners 2022

Joshua Page
Henley Halebrown Architects

Kunsthalle, Basel, Switzerland. This image captures the entrance stair to Switzerland’s oldest contemporary art institution. I was taken by the warmth of the space, and the tactile contrast between the stucco walls and the stone handrail.

Trinity Lane, Cambridge – ‘collage’ looking towards Clare College Chapel. All three buildings in the photograph (l,r,c) are built from the same Kettonstone, the setting sun sets the wall of the chapel on fire.

Yuan McCabe
Weedon Architects
