What are the Civic Trust Awards?
The Civic Trust Awards scheme
is one of the largest and most respected architecture and environmental
design award schemes in Europe. Unlike other award schemes, the Civic
Trust Awards celebrate not only design excellence, but also focus
on the relationship between projects and the environment and community
in which they are set.
There are four categories of Civic Trust Awards:
Special Awards, which are sponsored, are given to projects that are
outstanding in particular ways such as urban design or sustainability;
Awards, given to projects that reach the highest standards in terms
of both their design and their contribution to their environment or
community;
Commendations, for projects of an extremely high standard, but not
quite worthy of an award; and mentions, for projects that bring social,
economic or cultural benefits to their communities.
When can I enter?
The Civic Trust Awards are run on a two-year cycle, alternating between
the UK’s major cities and rural areas. The next round of Awards will
be the 2004 Civic Trust Awards, which will cover the major cities
and metropolitan areas of the UK. Entry forms will be available in
early summer 2003 and the deadline for entries will be in mid-September.
The winners of the 2004 Civic Trust Awards will be announced in April
2004. The 2005 Civic Trust Awards will then focus on the countryside
and county country towns of the UK.
What is eligible for a Civic Trust Award?
Civic Trust Awards are given to outstanding projects in the fields
of architecture, planning, environmental design, landscape, public
art and urban design. Entries are invited from schemes of all types
and sizes. To be eligible for the 2004 Awards, projects must be located
in one of the major cities or metropolitan areas of the UK and must
have been completed between 1 January 2001 and 30 September 2003.
Entries located in the countryside or one of the country towns of
the UK, not included in the 2003 Awards, will be eligible to enter
the 2005 Awards. To check if a project is eligible, contact the Awards
Office.
Who can enter for a Civic Trust Award?
Entries can be made by anyone closely connected with a project, so
long as the permission of the owner and occupier of the scheme has
been obtained prior to entering.
