Six early-career architect projects shortlisted for 2025 Stephen Lawrence Prize by RIBA
The Royal Institute of British Architects has unveiled the shortlist for the 2025 Stephen Lawrence Prize. The annual series is intended to “encourage new talent and inspire others in the early stages of their architectural career” by exclusively recognising projects by early-career project architects.
“The Stephen Lawrence prize celebrates the achievements of early career architects and this year’s shortlist reflects the eclectic magic of architectural endeavour,” jury chair Matthew Goldschmied said about the six projects. “Many stories are told through these buildings; narratives of delight, integrity and generosity to people, place and planet.”
The winning project will be announced at the RIBA Stirling Prize ceremony on Thursday, 16th October 2025. In the meantime, the six shortlisted projects for the prize are detailed below.
