Triple Shortlisting for Austin-Smith:Lord at the Education Buildings Wales Awards

We are delighted to have three of our projects shortlisted in the Education Buildings Wales Awards 2023: Cardiff School of Technologies, Ysgol Bro Morgannwg and Ysgol Y Graig.

Cardiff School of Technologies has been shortlisted in the ‘Refurbishment of the Year’ category. Completed on behalf of Cardiff Metropolitan University, we provided interior design and architectural services for the re-purposing of existing buildings on the Llandaff campus to become the new home for Cardiff School of Technologies.

Ysgol Bro Morgannwg has also been shortlisted in the ‘Refurbishment of the Year’ category. Completed in 2021 this project involved the extension of the existing school building to accommodate a further 300 pupils and replace outdated facilities, providing new classrooms, dining facilities, ALN Centre and Learning Resource Centre.

Ysgol Y Graig, shortlisted in the ‘Schools Project of the Year’ category, is a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ new build primary and nursery school in Merthyr Tydfil. Also completed in 2021, the school provides high quality learning spaces arranged around a central heart space.

Tim Young, Director at Austin-Smith:Lord said “It’s fantastic to see the great projects that we help our clients and fellow industry colleagues deliver being recognised in these awards.”

Congratulations to everyone shortlisted in the awards (full shortlist here). We look forward to the awards ceremony in June.
