Scholars’ Prize in Architecture
The Scholars’ Prize in Architecture is an exciting and valuable opportunity for an early-career architect or post-Part II student of architecture to spend three months in Rome (living at the BSR), and be a member of a vibrant residential community of architects, artists and researchers. It enables somebody to pursue their own, self-directed programme of research. This research — associated with the town of Rome or, if appropriate, elsewhere in Italy — may take the shape of an architectural project, a theoretical study or an historical investigation, or indeed a mixture of all three. It offers accommodation during a study-bedroom and board, for 3 months, a monthly stipend, a gaggle exhibition, and participation during a range of interdisciplinary activities.
The Scholar’s Prize in Architecture has been made possible by donations from a number of former BSR award-holders and others, who will be actively involved in the shortlisting. Members of the Architecture Advisory Committee will also review the applications. Final selection at interview will be by members of the Faculty of the Fine Arts of the BSR .
I have no doubt that the Scholars’ Prize was of fundamental importance to my future practice. The experience changed how I think about my own work and helped define the questions I wanted to pursue in the future.
