AJ Small Projects
Celebrating the brilliance of smaller projects
Now in the 28th year, the Architects' Journal Small Projects Award celebrates projects with a contract value of £350,000 and under to give much-deserved recognition to lower-value schemes that are often a labour of love.
This year there were more than 170 entries which have been whittled down to a shortlist of 20. The shortlist has now been announced and published in the special edition of Architect's Journal. You can view the shortlisted entries for AJ Small Projects at a month-long exhibition which opens at 6.30pm on Wednesday 3rd May. The exhibition is being held at Morris + Company, 215 Mare Street, London, E8 3QJ.
The presentation and judging will also be held at Morris + Company on Wednesday 3rd May from 6.30pm and you are invited to join us for a free-to-attend evening celebration. Click below to register for your free ticket.
