Civic centres in both Newcastle and Sunderland have triumphed in separate awards recognising the UK’s best buildings.
The 2022 RIBA North East Award winners have been unveiled, rewarding a modern makeover for Newcastle’s 1960s-built Civic Centre, along with a family home and a barn conversion.
The three projects have been awarded Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) North East Awards including North Bank in Northumberland by Elliott Architects Ltd, Newcastle Civic Centre by FaulknerBrowns Architects and Shepherds Barn in County Durham by LEAP.
