At this year’s Show Two: Design, the Spatial Practices programme presents its inaugural Spatial Practices Prizes in collaboration with Knight Frank
From rethinking the NHS hospital typology or exploring the legacy of decay at Brighton Pier to empowering informal wastepickers of Sao Paulo into urban craftspeople, the shortlist demonstrates Spatial Practices’ wider dedication to the social impact and transformative power of space. Awarded in recognition of outstanding work by a final-year student, three prizes will be given, one each across the three courses: BA Architecture, MA Architecture/MA ARCH and MA Narrative Environments. From this shortlist of nine, the winners will be announced on 22 June during the degree show.

This is a very important collaboration for Knight Frank and we are committed to supporting the programme. It gives the students a platform to showcase their evident talent and this year has produced some fantastic results. The Spatial Practices Prizes are a token of recognition for the work that has gone into the installations and I hope it will be an experience to remember for all that take part.”
