Charcoalblue 2025 RIBA Award Winners
22/05/25
The 2025 RIBA Regional Award winners have been announced, and we’re thrilled to share that several Charcoalblue projects were awarded across the regional categories!
The RIBA Awards champion and celebrate the best architecture in the UK. Successful projects reflect changes and innovations in architecture, but at their core, they are committed to designing and developing buildings and spaces to improve and enhance people’s lives.
Acknowledging both the shortlisted and winning projects, we’re thrilled to see our colleagues’ and collaborators' hard work and efforts recognised by the Royal Institute of British Architects.

The theatre @sohoplace marks a new departure for contemporary performance spaces. It is the first West End theatre to open in 50 years, responding to impresario Nica Burns’ vision for an intimate, 600-seat truly adaptable West End auditorium.
The Storyteller building aims to enhance Sidcup's cultural offerings and provide much-needed affordable housing. Charcoalblue has collaborated with DRDH architects from the early stages of the project, focusing on the acoustic requirements in terms of space planning and budgeting. This collaboration has been crucial for integrating these requirements and achieving successful performance.

Brighton Dome Corn Exchange & Studio Theatre
Originally built between 1803 and 1808 as the Prince Regent’s stables and riding house, the listed Brighton Dome has had many guises over its 200-year history – a stable block, a temporary hospital, a roller-skating rink and now the South Coast’s leading multi-arts venue, home to the Dome Concert Hall, Corn Exchange and Studio Theatre.
