The panel of judges for 2015, which will be chaired by RIBA Journal editor, Hugh Pearman, includes Paul Monaghan, director, AHMM; Mary Duggan, director, Duggan Morris Architects; and Bob Allies, partner, Allies and Morrison.

Once again, the categories for the Awards will be: education building; health building; commercial building; small project; individual home; residential development; sustainability; steel projects; and specialist contractor. There will also be a Schueco Special Merit Award for Overall Excellence.
A pdf of the Awards supplement which will contain all the short-listed entries will be available to download from the Schueco UK website, giving finalists an excellent opportunity to showcase their expertise directly to some of the most influential people in the industry.
Entries should be submitted by email to schuecoawards@ribajournal.com; closing date for submissions is midday 9 April 2015. Further details of the categories and the entry criteria can be found on the RIBA website and Schueco is now inviting entries for all categories.
