The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) ran the competition in partnership with the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC).

An exhibition displaying all winning projects is currently on view in the Atrium at Dublin City Council.

Plans to build a new neuroscience research centre have been approved by London Borough of Camden, subject to referral to the Mayor. The new building, known as the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre, will be built on the corner of Howland Street and Charlotte Street. Members of Camden’s Development Control Committee voted overwhelmingly in favour of the project at a meeting on 21.07.2011. The Sainsbury Wellcome Centre represents a joint venture between the Gatsby Charitable Foundation and the Wellcome Trust to establish a new Research Centre in Neural Circuits and Behaviour at University College London.

José Garrido, Karl Singporewala and Ian Ritchie all have works on show this year at the Royal Academy.

Sara L’Esperance and Kieran Wardle will both begin their Diploma studies this autumn at the Bartlett UCL.
