Moor’s Nook shortlisted for 2018 Building Award, AJ Architecture Award and Brick Award

Moor’s Nook, our recently completed housing development, has been shortlisted for three prestigious industry awards:

/ 2018 AJ Architecture Award, Housing Development up to £10m – shortlisted (judging pending)

/ 2018 Building Award, Housing Project of the Year – shortlisted (judging pending)

/ 2018 Brick Award, Large Housing Development – shortlisted (judging pending)

The 3400 sqm building is a convivial residential community in Surrey, designed for specialist retirement living developer PegasusLife.

In his building study of Moor’s Nook BD architecture critic Ike Ijeh praised the scheme, saying: “Giving architectural expression to sociological conditions is always tricky, particularly as contemporary architecture tends to eschew the tools of didactic decoration or figurative symbolism that enabled older styles to convey their intentions with clarity. But Moor’s Nook provides as eloquent an expression as any of an architecture conceived with the idea of community at its heart.”
