WOOD AWARDS HAT-TRICK FOR


Timber continues to wow the judges at the Wood Awards. Sally Spencer reports


A “remarkable” retrofit of Brighton’s timber-framed landmark arts centre by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios, the Brighton Dome Corn Exchange & Studio Theatre was named the UK’s best timber building in a ceremony at Carpenters Hall in late November – winning the Gold Award at the 2024 Wood Awards.


The project, which won out over more than 150 buildings in the UK to claim Gold, was a triple winner, as in addition it took the awards for both the Restoration & Reuse, and Structural categories. ►
