RIBA Awards 2009 Scotland

The Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland (RIAS) was founded in 1916 and is the professional body for over 3,500 chartered architects in Scotland. The RIAS works in partnership with the RIBA (the Royal Institute of British Architects) to promote excellent design in Scotland.

Each regional jury was made up of a regional representative, a lay assessor from various disciplines and the jury chair, who is a nationally renowned architect and chairs the shortlisting panel. They visited the shortlisted projects, talked to clients and users and assessing design excellence irrespective of style, size or complexity. The jury changes every year.
