The other contenders include two schemes in Sheffield: Petronella House, a revamp of a Victorian villa featuring a copper-clad extension by Chiles Evans + Care Architects; and The Wave at the University of Sheffield by HLM Architects<\/u><\/a>, which had to be demolished part-way through construction in 2020<\/a> and the build restarted after its foundations were found to be inadequate.<\/p>\n

The shortlist also features a social sanctuary for young people inside a Leeds hospice by ArkleBoyce<\/a>, a new library and community hub in Loftus, North Yorkshire, by Blyth-based EDable Architecture<\/a><\/u>, a futuristic factory in Rotherham by Race Cottam Associates<\/a><\/u> and De Matos Ryan\u2019s<\/u><\/a> interactive Wonderlab gallery for the National Railway Museum in York.<\/p>\n

All seven shortlisted projects will be assessed by a regional jury and the winning projects announced later this spring.<\/p>\n

Regional award winners are considered for several RIBA Special Awards, including the RIBA Sustainability Award and the Yorkshire RIBA Building of the Year.<\/p>\n

Last year<\/a> the region famously made headlines<\/a> after RIBA Yorkshire failed to name a Building of the Year for its area. According to reports, Hugh Broughton Architects and client English Heritage \u2018radical restoration\u2019 <\/span>of Clifford\u2019s Tower in York had been selected by RIBA regional award-winners jury as Yorkshire\u2019s \u2018best in show\u2019. But, before it could be handed over, the Building of the Year prize was withdrawn<\/a> due to concerns over disabled access.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the 2025 shortlist, RIBA Yorkshire jury chair Gayle Appleyard, director of Halifax-based Gagarin Studio,<\/a> said: \u2018The Yorkshire region is home to a wonderful mix of people across cities, towns and rural communities, so it\u2019s encouraging to see such diversity reflected in this year\u2019s shortlist.<\/p>\n

\u2018From the tiny but well-crafted pavilion space created for young people within a hospice, to the renovation of a Grade I-listed church and a cutting-edge factory on a remediated industrial site, it\u2019s brilliant to see the sensitivity and ambition manifest in all these shortlisted projects that evidently create inspiring, sustainable places in which to live, work, learn and play.\u2019<\/p>\n

All the regional winners in Yorkshire will be in the running for a RIBA National Award<\/a>, the results of which will be announced in the summer.<\/p>\n

The shortlist for the\u00a0RIBA Stirling Prize<\/a> for the best building of the year will then be drawn from the national award-winning projects and the Stirling Prize winner will be announced in October.<\/p>\n
