RIBA East Jury Chair Thomas Miller, Director at Haysom Ward Miller Architects, said: “The number and high standard of entries this year -represen
ting a wide variety of building types, scales and budgets – is testament once again to the skill of the architects working across the eastern region.”
All shortlisted projects will be assessed by a regional jury, and the winning projects will be announced later this spring.
The music gallery provides an inspiring venue for students, Fellows and visiting musicians to practise and perform.
The transformation of the Court has been made possible through a generous donation from the Avery-Tsui Foundation. Dennis Avery was an alumnus (1980), Honorary Fellow and donor to Trinity Hall. The Court was named for Dennis in October 2006.
