Steel Awards 2015
“And then there is a little architectural gem tucked away on this otherwise very
functional and industrial site,” the judges said. “We have come to expect a two-storey
rectangular box that houses the offices for such a project. Definitely not so in this case!
This beautifully detailed structure with exposed steel extending to the glass-fronted
reception area with ponds and aesthetic decor transforms this good industrial project
into an absolute winner and truly deserving of B & T Steel’s Factory and Warehouse
Category for excellence in the use of steel,” they concluded.
