The Royal Conservatory of Music Telus Centre for Performance and Learning continues to win critical acclaim as it has recently received the prestigious International Architecture Award.
Sponsored by the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture, Art, Design and Urban Studies, the annual award programme recognises the most important new buildings, landscape architecture and urban planning.
This year’s competition attracted hundreds of submissions from more than 45 countries. Winners were selected by a jury of Mexican architects under the auspices of the Colegio de Arquitectos de la Cuidad de Mexico.
The winning projects will be presented and exhibited at The City and The World Conference in Madrid in November, before travelling to a number of other locations throughout Europe and the United States.
Halcrow Yolles provided full structural engineering services for this impressive new facility which was designed by Kuwabara Payne McKenna Architects.
