The shortlists for the BREEAM Awards 2015 was recently announced by BRE.
The BREEAM Awards recognise the achievement of those involved in the specification, design, construction and management of BREEAM certified buildings. The shortlists include an extraordinary variety of inspirational buildings, representing all regions of the UK and several other countries – including the Czech Republic, France, Norway, Romania and Sweden. They range from city centre towers to industrial facilities, schools and homes, having been drawn from the highest scoring buildings under the BREEAM schemes in the year ending 30 November 2014.
“This year’s shortlists represent an extraordinary variety of inspirational buildings that are setting the standards for sustainability in the design, construction, refurbishment and management of our built environment,” says Gavin Dunn, Director of BREEAM. “Ranging from city towers to factories, shops, schools, hospitals, homes and much besides, they demonstrate that the many benefits of sustainability can be gained from virtually any type of building.”
Showcasing the latest innovations in sustainability, the shortlisted buildings are grouped into the following types: Office, Retail, Industrial, Healthcare, Education, Residential, and Mixed-use and other. There are Awards for New Construction in all categories, and for Refurbishment and Fit-Out and In-Use in the Office and Retail categories. The shortlists can be viewed below.
The winners will be selected by an independent judging panel of eminent industry figures, chaired by Alan Yates of BREEAM, including architect Bill Gething, Claudine Blamey of The Crown Estate, Alan Cole of the Home Office, Mike Smith of BSRIA, Louise Sunderland of the UK Green Building Council and Thomas Lane of Ecobuild and Building Magazine.
There will be also BREEAM Awards for the most successful BREEAM assessors and assessor organisation, and for those introducing BREEAM into countries where it has not previously operated.
The winners will be announced at the BREEAM Awards 2015 ceremony on the first evening of Ecobuild on Tuesday 3 March.
