Students from Thomas Rotherham College have scooped the top two prizes in our competition that encourages budding young architects to design an idea to improve a ‘forgotten space’ in their local neighbourhoods.
The first placed team won £1,000 in resources for the college in the Forgotten Spaces – Young Creatives competition, run by the University and supported by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Yorkshire and the Sheffield Society of Architects.
Their design for a new ‘Common Room’ for youngsters from Thomas Rotherham College and Rotherham College of Art and Technology to integrate and socialise, was praised by competition judges for its ‘outstanding innovation that met the competition criteria at every level’.
