SIX Student Awards for Architecture 2008

This annual exhibition and student awards, which is run in collaboration with the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland, offers a rare opportunity for the public and profession to see the best work of students from all six of Scotland’s Schools of Architecture together. The single focus and high profile of the awards provides an excellent chance for the public and profession to view the standard of ideas and student work from Scotland’s most talented, emerging young architects. SIX is part of ACCESS to Architecture, a programme of events and activities informed by Scotland’s Policy on Architecture.

The SIX Student Awards are comprised of 5 awards: the RIAS Silver Medal for best fifth year student (£1200 prize); The Lighthouse Award for best third year student (£800 prize); Urban Design Award which is open to students and groups from any year (£1000 prize); The Sust. Award, which is open to all students (£500 prize) and The RIAS Drawing Award, also open to all students (£1000 prize).
