Our Chowdhury Walk development on Daubeney Road has been shortlisted for yet another award! RIBA has announced the 6-strong shortlist for the Stephen Lawrence Prize 2024, with projects presenting a fusion of social purpose and restorative design.
Founded by Baroness Doreen Lawrence OBE and the Marco Goldschmeid Foundation, the annual prize was established in 1998 in memory of Stephen Lawrence, a teenager and aspiring architect who was the victim of a fatal racist attack in 1993. Intended to encourage new talent and inspire others in the early stages of their architectural career, the award exclusively recognises projects led by an early career project architect. This is typically someone who has qualified within five years prior to the project’s completion date.
It is an honour to see our project make the shortlist, which is a sculptural infill development heralding the beginnings of an ambitious programme of new generation council housing by London Borough of Hackney. Congratulations to all those involved, in particular AL-JAWAD PIKE, who designed the Chowdhury Walk development.
