Sheffield Winter Garden Highly Commended in ICE Award Ceremony
Sheffield’s latest landmark building, the Sheffield Winter Garden was Highly Commended at Friday’s (28 Feb 03) Institution of Civil Engineers Yorkshire Award Ceremony.
The design team for the award include architects Pringle Richards Sharratt, consulting engineers Buro Happold and contractor Interserve Building.
Buro Happold and Interserve collected the award, which will sit alongside the other awards won
by the Millennium Galleries and Winter Garden project team so far. Other awards won by the project include the Concrete Society 2002 Building Award and a Civic Trust award for "both design and contribution to the community".
The Galleries and Winter Gardens make up part of Sheffield City Council’s Heart of the City Project; the redevelopment scheme is a master plan for the whole city centre and covers 2.5 hectares in area.
Simon Wainwright, Group Director at Buro Happold is delighted with the award, “The Winter Garden is a great example of what can be achieved when a like minded design team focuses on achieving the aspirations of the client. We are extremely proud of the project and its success”.
