Entries Open soon for the 2027 RIAS Awards
If you’ve completed an outstanding project in Scotland, we’d love to see it.
Since 2002, the RIAS Awards have celebrated and championed outstanding architecture across Scotland, showcasing the creativity, ambition and quality of the profession.
Over the years, RIAS Award-winning projects have demonstrated just how varied Scottish architecture can be, from a moveable microhouse on the Isle of Skye to an outdoor pool pavilion in Aberdeenshire and a new facility for women in custody at HMP & YOI Stirling.
Shortlisted projects have included Scotland’s first Passivhaus-certified primary school, impressive new buildings for Scottish universities and a new headquarters at the home of Scottish golf.
