From over 100 entries, thirty-eight projects were recognized at the 2014 Western Australia Architecture Awards presented on 3 July at Grand Ballroom, Crown Perth by the Australian Institute of Architects.
The Toyota WA Head Office in Kewdale by Roxby Architects won two main awards: the George Temple Poole Award for Public Architecture, the Ross Chisholm and Gil Nicol Award For Commercial Architecture. The jury noted that: “The architects have responded in an elegant manner to the brief that provides a landmark site within one of WA’s largest industrial areas.” The other big winner of the night was a welcoming Fremantle eatery – Bread in Common by Spaceagency – taking four awards including the Julius Elischer Award for Interior Architecture and Margaret Pitt Morison Award for Heritage Architecture.
