Windermere Jetty Museum has today been recognised as one of the top new buildings in Britain.
The museum has been awarded a RIBA National Award by judges who found the building to have a “…restrained and simple beauty that is boldly confident in its design and delivery.”
This is fabulous news for the museum, its architects Carmody Groarke, Windermere and wider Lake District.
The RIBA National Awards – which started in 1966 – are given to buildings across the UK recognised as significant contributions to architecture.
Joining 53 other amazing buildings, including Tottenham Hotspur’s new stadium, Windermere Jetty Museum now enters the long list for the Stirling Prize – the UK’s most prestigious architecture award.
This year has been star-studded for the museum with design accolades including: RIBA North West Award 2021, RIBA North West Building of the Year Award 2021, RIBA North West Client of the Year Award 2021 and now RIBA National Award 2021.
