Stephen Lawrence Prize founder Marco Goldschmied said:
“This year marks 21 years since the Marco Goldschmied Foundation
first began working with the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust
and the RIBA on the £5,000 Stephen Lawrence Prize and bursary
which, this year, has been increased to £25,000 to mark the 25th
year since Stephen’s death. We have once again been astounded
by the skill, ingenuity and determination shown in each project.
The shortlist ranges from new and converted housing to a moving
memorial, from education to hospitality. Each project has produced
outstanding architecture fit for such a long-standing award.”
The winner of the 2018 Stephen Lawrence Prize will be announced
at the RIBA Stirling Prize party on 10 October at the Roundhouse
in Camden, London.
