Saltmarsh House on the Isle of Wight has been longlisted for the RIBA House of the Year. The judges have described it as " a stunning example of modern architectural design". The winner will be announced later in the year.
Somerville College Student Accommodation in Oxford was awarded a certificate of commendation for the RIAI Silver Medal for housing 2011-2012. The award is to encourage excellence of design in housing by giving public recognition to architects responsible for buildings of exceptional merit. It is awarded five years after the competition so the building can be evaluated in a mature setting.
