From museums to homeless shelters, five projects have been shortlisted across multiple categories in this year’s AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards.
We’re pleased to have five projects recognised in this year’s AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards, with shortlists across a range of categories including conservation, positive additions, fit-out, and adaptive reuse, as pictured below:
At the Science Museum’s Energy Revolution Gallery, a new climate-focused exhibition space was delivered with circular design principles and energy efficiency at its core.
LSE’s Old Building saw complex structural, and services interventions carefully introduced to bring a listed university building in line with modern environmental performance.
Rhodes House, a Grade II* listed property, underwent major retrofit works, including three new basements and careful reconfiguration of the existing fabric, all completed while the building remained in use.
The Jackson Library has been sensitively reworked to improve circulation and access, with a standout 14-metre cantilevered mezzanine inserted to connect and open up key spaces.
At Snow Hill Court, structural and civil engineering enabled the transformation of a derelict Victorian school into a low-carbon homeless shelter, with minimal interventions and maximum material reuse.
Congratulations to all involved.
