Reiach and Hall, the architects behind Scotland's £33m Oriam sports centre, have been awarded the top prize at this year's Architect of the Year Awards.
The studio – whose work also includes the £12m National Centre Inverclyde and Aberdeen Sports Village – received the top Schueco Gold Award for a portfolio of recent work that “shows both creativity and flexibility”.
Their 2016 projects include the Oriam sports centre for Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh. The building’s striking curving roof was inspired by the trajectory of one of Brazilian footballer Roberto Carlos’ famous free kicks.
“Reiach and Hall is a deserving winner, said Thomas Lane, editor of publisher BD, which organised the awards. “Their broad range of work includes the City of Glasgow College riverside campus, a huge scheme with a strong civic presence that has revitalised the deprived Clyde riverside and the Oriam at Herriot Watt, a simple sports centre with a roof elevated to an art form.
“Reiach and Hall’s confident handling of this diverse range of work is exemplary.”
The judges included Wilkinson Eyre director Jim Eyre, Urban Design London director Esther Kurland, Mace head of design Mike Shaw and Taylor Wimpey design director Nick Rogers.
