A “radical and significant” social housing complex for people over the age of 65 has won the Royal Institute of British Architects (Riba) Stirling Prize 2025 for architecture.
The Appleby Blue Almshouse, by Witherford Watson Mann Architects, claimed the prestigious award on Thursday for its community-centered design, beating out the restoration of the Elizabeth Tower, which houses the bell known as Big Ben, and the new home to the London College of Fashion.
