It’s an incredible honour to receive the bronze medal, especially after the unprecedented circumstances of the past months. I am incredibly grateful for the continued dedication of my tutors across time zones and the immense support of my peers and family. I share the joy of this recognition with everyone involved who made this achievement possible.

 My project was unconventional, and perhaps unexpected. To have the confidence to pursue a project like this is testament to the support of both tutors and students at The Bartlett.

It has been extremely exciting and rewarding to receive a commendation for the RIBA Silver Medal this year. In particular, this announcement reaffirms the importance of collaborative design, and as we move through the current crisis, to be mindful of how the status-quo of architecture should be challenged to become more attuned to the delicate ecosystem(s) we cohabit. I would like to thank my amazing tutors, friends and family for their support and to hopefully take this research as a stepping stone to solving (some) of our ‘wicked’ problems.  

Congratulations to Sharil, Heba and Yip on a fantastic achievement. They join a long list of Bartlett students who have been recognised by the RIBA President’s Medals over the years. This is testament to the outstanding quality of our teaching and the talent of the students we attract.
