SPACES Awards & Yearbook 2019

SPACES Awards & Yearbook 2019

The SPACES Annual Awards Ceremony 2019 which also incorporates the 17th Civic Building of the Year and President’s Dinner was held on the 17th October at the Pentahotel, Reading. These are the only awards in the industry that are solely dedicated to rewarding excellence, collaboration and innovation in construction projects delivered within the Public Sector.


This year we have continued to widen the awards to reflect and recognise the multi-disciplinary nature of both SPACES as a society, but also the collaborative nature in which public sector projects are being delivered to their communities, along with the contribution of key project members. The submissions received continue to show the breadth of schemes that are delivered each year with the aid of public funding and SPACES will further develop this in the coming years.


From over 100 schemes, 80 submissions were chosen for the yearbook and 33 were short listed for the awards. Download the SPACES 2019 Yearbook below:



The awards are not purely about design. They recognise the importance of team play in delivering a project that aims to achieve the ‘golden triangle’ in terms of meeting the brief, delivering on time and to a set budget. Given the ever strained economic climate we are working within and the scrutiny of public funding, achieving value for money continues to be a key objective. This challenge insists on innovative solutions being created to enable the client’s brief to be met in the best way possible.


With regards to the judging process, each shortlisted project is visited and reviewed by the combined efforts of the SPACES awards panel along with members of the society located in the area of the project. All areas of the construction industry are represented as part of this group. The broad topics of Design, Impact, Concept, Functionality, Complexity, Sustainability and Build Quality are considered as part of the assessment. The visits help to validate the findings of the panel but also enable the team to experience first-hand the impact the project has on the community it serves. We invited the submissions of any project which has received an element of public funding. Submissions were invited nationally and could include:

  • New building and refurbishment projects across the public sector

  • Buildings that add value to the communities they serve

  • Buildings from all sectors of public construction

  • Projects that demonstrate collaboration

  • Projects that demonstrate Engineering excellence/ingenuity

  • Surveying projects that renew embedded value

  • Examples of construction team excellence

  • Articles of interest on public sector buildings

Anyone could make a submission whether you are the client, architect, contractor, engineer, surveyor or project manager who felt there was merit in a particular building or project.

WINNER – Sapphire Ice and Leisure Centre, Romford. Application Willmott Dixon

Client – London Borough of Havering Architect – Saunders Boston Architects PM and Surveyor – Currie & Brown Structural Engineer – AKS Ward MEP – Kershaw Group Contractor – Willmott Dixon


Located on an extremely constrained site this project involved the construction of a gym, a full size ice rink including capacity for 1000 spectators plus a pool hall containing a 25m x 8 lane pool and learner pool. In response to the small site footprint, the project became the second site ever to locate a rink above a pool. The construction phase faced significant challenges including air tightness between the cold space of the ice rink and warm, moist space of the pool area. Also the large span required over the pool to support the ice rink brought its own challenges, not least from the careful sequencing of steelwork delivery and installation within the site constraints and busy town centre location. The panel were extremely impressed with the Contractor’s collaborative approach through all levels of their supply chain as well as with the client and their leisure provider. The quality of delivery is exceptional and with three year operational membership targets being exceeded by the second operational month, the community have very much demonstrated its need.


Runner up – The Spaces In Between – Waltham Forest. Application by NPS Group


Client – London Borough of Waltham Forest Full Design Team, Surveyor and PM – NPS Group Contractor – Engie


Developed by NPS to address the needs of the London borough in the first instance, the scheme identifies and de-risks plots of land for local authority clients so they can be regenerated into affordable housing schemes. Using a traditional approach and consistency of design methods, standardised schemes can be commissioned, designed and constructed in short programmes with minimal disruption to the surrounding estatesThe judges were impressed with the scalability of the innovation and saw the outcome of a number of designs in a small area of Waltham Forest that significantly benefited the community.

WINNER – Chichester Free School. Application Education & Skills Funding Agency


Client – Education & Skills Funding Agency Architect – Noviun Architects Surveyor – Turner & Townsend PM – Mace Group Contractor – Farrans


Originally a Covent, built in 1870 for the Carmelite’s order of nuns, the Carmelites left this convent in 1994 and the building fell into a dilapidated state. The original Covent is at the heart of the school, which houses the school’s dining halls, administration staff, SEND, library and sixth form. The interface between old and new was key, so as not to undermine the existing convent. It was laser surveyed during construction to monitor movement and photographed throughout for conservation. The original but unstable bell tower had its own challenges but is now back to its former glory overlooking the entire building. The new primary school roofs replicate the 60-degree pitch of the existing convent. The architects and contractors worked with the planners and conservation team to ensure the architecture and detailing was fully restored. One of the biggest challenges was lack of utilities, the convent had no electricity, gas or main water and drainage all of which needed installing. The finished school is due a visit from a previous resident! one of the last remaining nuns, who has rescinded her Vow of Silence and now lives in a nunnery in Ireland.


Joint runner up – Littleport Co-Located School, Cambridgeshire. Application by Atkins, Faithful & Gould, Morgan Sindall


Client – Cambridgeshire County Council Full Design Team – Atkins Surveyor – Faithful & Gould Contractor – Morgan Sindall


This project  involved the development of a new all through school with SEN provision and leisure facilities for the community. The primary element of the school is yet be constructed but is part of the overall masterplan for the future. The project was delivered on budget and on time against the backdrop of challenging site conditions with the remediation of land and a changing academy sponsor during the construction phase of the project. The collaboration of the project team and the relationship developed between the parties impressed the judging panel and this trust has continued into the operation of the school with a great sense of community being delivered with all the services on the site.


Joint runner up – Springwell, Leeds – Social Emotional & Mental Health Schools. Application Atkins


Client – Wellspring Academy Trust Full Design Team – Atkins Contractor – Interserve Construction


Springwell Leeds – SEMH Schools are three new facilities that redefine provision across the city. The project team adopted a standardised design approach, allowing greater focus on the specific needs of the end user, with all aspects of the building being tailored towards their curriculum. The trust utilized redundant sites, regenerating them, returning them to the community and enhancing the local area. The panel were impressed by the inspiring, calm and safe environments, where students are encouraged to interact socially. Especially the ‘funnel’ spaces with 360° projection which allow for fully immersive learning, used to recreate ‘real life’ situations. The panel would also like to commend the trust who worked collaboratively with Atkins, the LA and Interserve to handover 3 schools within 6 months of each other whilst learning from a similar project located in Barnsley.


 

Education - Refurbishment


  • Winner – The Belham Primary School, London. Application. Application Haverstock

  • Highly Commended – Kingsgate Primary School, London. Application Sarah Wigglesworth Architects

  • Highly Commended – Robert Mays School, Hampshire. Application Hampshire County Council Property Services

WINNER – The Belham Primary School, London. Application. Application Haverstock

Client – London Borough of Southwark Architect – Haverstock M&E & Structural Engineer – Watermans Contractor – Morgan Sindall


This school centres around the sensitive restoration and extension of the Grade II Listed Old Bellenden School, which had not functioned as a school for many years. The design had to consider essential remedial works to restore the listed fabric safeguarding the building’s future together with the provision of a significant 3 storey new build extension. The positioning of the new build was challenging given complex party wall issues, overlooking from neighbours, rights of light implications and the historic gables of the existing building which Historic England were keen to preserve.This project balanced the needs of conservation, development, sustainable design, stakeholder engagement and outstanding architecture for the benefit of its diverse and dynamic community in central London.


 

Heritage Conservation


  • Winner – Whitchurch Silk Mill, Hampshire. Application Hampshire County Council Property Services

  • Joint runner up – Kew Gardens Great Pagoda, London. Application Austin Smith Lord

  • Joint runner up – Mackintosh at The Willow, Glasgow. Application Clark Contracts

  • Highly Commended – London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, Barking Town Hall Refurbishment. Application Barnes Construction

  • Highly Commended – Middlesbrough Town Hall. Application Atkins


WINNER – Whitchurch Silk Mill, Hampshire. Application Hampshire County Council Property Services


Client – Hampshire County Council Full Design Team – Hampshire County Council Property Services Contractor – Mountjoy


The approach to the conservation works of this 1815 Grade 2* listed silk mill was one of minimal intervention, repairing only damaged or decayed areas of the fabric of the building, and undertaking any new works in a sensitive and discreet way. Design interventions were judged relative to the sensitivity of each element and repairs were undertaken using traditional methods and materials. A modern extension to the existing shop enabled the creation of enhanced retail, ticketing and café facilities, and is clad in a palette of zinc and black timber. It is recessive in scale, preserving clear views of the of the mill. As a result of the project there is now a secure future for Whitchurch Silk Mill, not only as a visitor attraction, but also a source of employment for the local community, where traditional silk weaving skills are kept alive in an inspiring and beautiful location.


Joint runner up – Kew Gardens Great Pagoda, London. Application Austin Smith Lord


Client – Historic Royal Palaces

Architect – Austin Smith Lord M&E Engineer – Chapman BDSP Surveyor – Moreham & Brotchie

Contractor – Blue Sky Building


This £5m renovation project of the Pagoda was part of a wider strategy to get visitors to visit more remote areas of the gardens. This has proved highly successful and has supported the development of other initiatives of Kew on nearby sites. After being inaccessible for the public with decades of neglect and decline, the pagoda now has ticketed public access and generates an income for Kew. The judges were impressed with the project’s vision, design and delivery team on every level, the careful management of risk, keeping within budget targets, quality of restoration and to top it all the legacy it offers in terms of specialist conservation knowledge gained being published as a result.


Joint runner up – Mackintosh at The Willow, Glasgow. Application Clark Contracts


Client – The Willow Tea Rooms Trust Architect – Simpson & Brown PM & Surveyor – Doig & Smith

Contractor – Clark Contracts


Over a hundred years on from its original opening in 1903, the restoration of the tea rooms has brought back to life, not just a tearoom for somewhere to enjoy tea or coffee, but more an experience enriched by the magnificent details of the interior. Much thought, research and consultation between the design team and the client has resulted in high standards of materials being used throughout in order to restore the interiors to those originally designed by Mackintosh and his wife, Margaret MacDonald. The restoration and refurbishment was able to use the property next door to provide conference and educational facilities, a gift shop and make the building meet current legislation for access and safety, allowing visitors to enjoy the use of the upper floors such as the Salon-De-Luxe which itself has been restored with unrelenting attention to detail.


 

Innovation

WINNER – Loddiswell Primary School, Devon. Application NPS Group


Client – Devon County Council Full Design Service – NPS Group Contractor – Midas Group


Loddiswell’s new four-class school falls entirely within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The combination of a large number of innovative and sustainable concepts in the delivery of the project impressed the judges. These included a highly efficient thermal envelope and a design that maximises natural daylighting and natural ventilation using roof mounted hybrid stacks. A prefabricated structurally insulated panel system was used for the superstructure. Other sustainable features include the provision of air source heat pumps for heating and hot water generation, run- round coils to recovery heat from the kitchen ventilation, PV panels and fabric first approach which has all helped to achieve an energy performance score of -1 (A+ rated) resulting in a zero carbon in use facility. The lessons learned and sustainable features from this project are intended to be taken forward into future school projects.


 

President's Award

WINNER - London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, Barking Town Hall Refurbishment. Application Barnes Construction


Client – London Borough of Barking & Dagenham Architect – LAP Architects Surveyor – Potter Raper Contractor – Barnes Construction


This is an award where the panel want to specifically recognise the collaborative efforts of one particular client and delivery team during this year’s visits.


The scheme itself is a great example of a restoration project that embraced new technologies with a listed building refurbishment. There were plenty of technical challenges along the way and unforeseen works in a clock tower which had been damaged in WWII and some exemplary work installing new UPVC windows that looked vintage to stay in keeping with listed building status. The insulation to the building wasn’t just designed but was the subject of a thesis for some Phd students at University College London and as such, created extensive data to compare before and after the works with regards to energy usage.


However in this instance the Judges were particularly impressed with the way the leaders of the council bought into the scheme and the management teams’ approach to involving all stakeholders throughout the process. The top down approach that led to completely new ways of working for the local authority and has transformed the way staff carry out their day to day activities. They were also impressed with the collaborative value engineering approach by the contractor to ensure the client’s vision continued to be delivered within a challenging budget.


 

Small Building

Winner – Battle of Britain Bunker & Visitor Centre, London. Application Faithful+Gould Runner up – The Lookout at Lepe Country Park in Southampton. Application Hampshire County Council Property Services Runner up – RHS Garden Hyde Hall Hilltop Complex, Chelmsford. Application Concertus Design and Property Services Highly Commended – Galashiels Academy SEN Provision in the Scottish Borders. Application Scottish Borders Council


WINNER – Battle of Britain Bunker & Visitor Centre, London. Application Faithful+Gould


Client – London Borough of Hillingdon Architect – Pattern Architects Project Manager & Surveyor – Faithful & Gould Contractor – Volker Fitzpatrick


With an extremely well designed exhibition hall benefiting from excellent daylighting, the centre features state-of-the-art museum displays, detailing the development of the UK’s air defence system from the First World War to the end of the Second World War. There is a 95 seat auditorium; large and small meeting rooms with views of the exhibition; a café and gift shop; reception area and toilets. The building is striking both internally and externally and is adjacent to the Battle of Britain underground bunker visited by Sir Winston Churchill during the war. The Exhibition and Visitor Centre has increased both visitor and volunteer numbers to the bunker and provides a fantastic insight into the RAF’s finest hour in 1940.


Runner up – The Lookout at Lepe Country Park in Southampton. Application Hampshire County Council Property Services


Client – Hampshire County Council PM and Full Design Services – Hampshire County Council Property Services Contractor – W Stirland Runner up – RHS Garden Hyde Hall Hilltop Complex, Chelmsford Client – Royal Horticultural Society Full Design Services – Concertus Design and Property Services PM & Contractor – Brooks & Wood


This is a Local Authority funded scheme who in the face of losing a valuable beach-side community facility and café (due to rising sea levels/ storm surges), have made a modest investment for a huge reward for social value in an area with some social deprivation.The judges were impressed with the project’s vision, high quality of design and detailing and the need to design to an anticipated 100 year flood level zone which posed a number of technical challenges for the team.


Runner up – RHS Garden Hyde Hall Hilltop Complex, Chelmsford. Application Concertus Design and Property Services


Client – Royal Horticultural Society Full Design Services – Concertus Design and Property Services PM & Contractor – Brooks & Wood


Commissioned by the Royal Horticultural Society, Hyde Hall impressed the judges with the way the new buildings harmonised into the grounds and sit so well into the site context. The restaurant and events barn are constructed with a glulam frame and CLT roof with large glazed sections providing excellent daylighting and fantastic views of the Essex countryside. The building incorporates a number of sustainability features and the use of sustainable materials adds considerably to the aesthetic.


 

Vocational


  • Winner – National College of High Speed Rail, Doncaster. Application Bond Bryan

  • Highly commended – The Academic Centre – University of Buckingham, Milton Keynes. Application Pick Everard

  • Highly commended – Weymouth House, Dorset. Application Atkins


WINNER – National College of High Speed Rail, Doncaster. Application Bond Bryan


Client – Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council Architect and PM – Bond Bryan M&E Engineer – Buro Happold Contractor – Willmott Dixon


This campus seeks to address the national skills gap in the industry and to ensure vocational training options are as attractive to young people as traditional academic higher education. This BREEAM ‘Excellent’ scheme pays homage to Doncaster’s culturally significant contributions to the rail industry and railway heritage. Glazed windows at each side shining as beacons and the saw-tooth roof form acting as a contemporary interpretation of the traditional engineering factory make this a striking building. The College has a full-size high-speed train in the expansive workshop area within a truly 21st century learning environment


 

Young Visionary of the Year


This is your chance to promote a young member of your team/organisation who continues to go that extra mile and is deserving of wider national recognition within our industry.


In 2017 SPACES created a young visionary award to celebrate the good work being carried out by younger construction professionals (aged 18-30).


Who can be nominated? Any person who is delivering or who carries out maintenance projects for the public sector (e.g. consultant, contractor, etc.), or is employed by the public sector (local government, civil service, etc.) and is between 18-30 years old. Typical examples include surveyor, project manager, architect, engineer, contractor, sub contractor, etc.


You do NOT need to be a SPACES member to nominate or be nominated for the award.

You can download a copy of the submission form below:


This award forms part of the SPACES aim to develop a platform for young people to:


  • connect multiple disciplines across government agencies, consultancies and constructors

  • create an environment for young people to network with senior professionals to gain insight and knowledge within the wider building industry

  • provide opportunities for career progression

  • be a place to debate industry news

  • provide recognition for young talent who will ‘form the future’ of the industry


The aim is to raise the profile of the huge breadth and quality of construction projects in the Public Sector and the wealth of experience young professionals can gain by working in or for the sector. We are looking for nominations for young professionals who have assisted in the development, design, construction and management of buildings.


A judging panel evaluates against the criteria of:


  • achieving high standards within their field

  • development of their own skills

  • commitment to their role/project

  • demonstration of team working – making a positive impact on others

  • involvement in the wider industry


RESULTS:



Wayne Fleet – Barnes Construction


Wayne who was originally placed on a complex multi million pound occupied town hall refurbishment project to deliver the enabling works only. However, he impressed the client that they campaigned to keep him for the entire 68 week project which he then went on to successfully deliver.  


The judges were impressed by his great customer awareness, management and site skills along with the confidence and communication skills for someone with limited site management experience.


His application showed how he constantly strives to deliver over and above what would normally be expected and this has been recognised by others too, when he won a national Considerate Constructor Scheme award for his work with schools.


Matthew Smith Concertus


The judges felt this submission really struck a note due to Matthew’s ability to think out of the box. He introduced ‘BiM and Tonic’ sessions into the workplace to encourage colleagues to stay on after work to improve their BiM skills and then finish the day with a G&T! – BIM & Tonic is genius.


His enthusiasm for computing technology to inform and deliver better designs is not only improving customers projects but has lead to him presenting both locally and regionally to external organisations, contractors, colleges, CIBSE events as well working with local schools to promote technology and design as a career.


Ali Ratcliffe – Pick Everard


Ali had outstanding testimonials from colleagues and clients demonstrate that she makes a significant contribution to the delivery and execution of projects. She has delivered the first Pupil Referral Unit to be awarded a BREEAM Excellent. Informing young people about the importance of sustainability is a very worthy exercise and shows her true commitment to the discipline. 


Adelina Bran – Concertus


Adelina was recognised for her impressive commitment to delivering high quality sustainable schemes.


Guy Schmidt – Pick Everard


Guy was recognised for taking social value to a new level. 


 

During the evening there was a raffle in support of the President’s Charity Parkinson’s UK. We are pleased to announce that £840 was raised. You can find out more about Parkinson’s below:
