Architecture Awards 2022
Applications are now open for the DHBT's Architecture Awards, 2022.
There are a number of categories so many historic building schemes will find they can apply.
We've recently added a 'Conservation Champion' category and, new for 2022, a 'Craftsperson' one to help celebrate the best in craftsmanship across the county.
The deadline for applications is 31st August 2022. Finalists will be invited to the Awards ceremony at Elvaston Castle in November.
To be eligible for the building related categories, the scheme must be in Derbyshire and reached practical completion by 31st August 2022.
For the purpose of the Awards, the term 'historic' is defined as a building that is pre-World War II.
