Hopkins Architects鈥� net-zero 100 Liverpool Street office development and Panter Hudspith Architecture鈥檚 228-home Orchard Gardens scheme in south London have been named on the six-strong shortlist for the 2022 RIBA Stirling Prize.

For Panter Hudspith and M忙 Architects 鈥� whose Sands End Arts and Community Centre in Fulham is also in the running for UK architecture鈥檚 highest accolade 鈥� 2022 represents a Stirling Prize shortlist debut.

Niall McLaughlin Architects鈥� New Library at Magdalene College, Cambridge, is the practice鈥檚 fourth shortlist placing. Reiach and Hall will also be hoping to make it fourth-time-lucky with their Forth Valley College 鈥� Falkirk Campus.

Hopkins Architects has also been shortlisted for the Stirling Prize three times before, most recently for its London 2012 Velodrome, which won the 鈥減eople鈥檚 vote鈥� in 2011. Its first Stirling Prize shortlisting was for Portcullis House in Westminster, when the practice was called Michael Hopkins & Partners.

Henley Halebrown completes the 2022 shortlist with its Hackney New Primary School and 333 Kingsland Road project in east London, which judges described as a 鈥渦nique鈥� combination of education and affordable housing. It is the second time the practice has made the Stirling Prize shortlist, after its Chadwick Hall student-housing development for the University of Roehampton was selected as a finalist in 2018.

RIBA president Simon Allford said all six shortlisted projects gave cause for optimism by offering innovative solutions to current and future challenges at a time of housing, energy and climate crises.

鈥淔rom major capital city regeneration programmes to new visions for higher education, they all share the ambition to deliver generous architecture fit for a low-carbon future,鈥� he said.

鈥淔our of our shortlisted schemes provide new spaces to interact and learn. These formal and informal settings 鈥� schools, colleges and community centres 鈥� epitomise how to design for sustained community benefit. They are joined by ambitious new housing developments on compact and complex sites that set a benchmark for investment in high quality, desirable urban homes.

鈥淎ll six buildings are informed by close consultation and collaboration with clients, contractors and the community. The result: outstanding and welcoming architecture that lifts the spirit of all who engage with it.

鈥淎ll six are also underpinned by their understanding of construction鈥檚 responsibility to mitigate and adapt to our climate crisis. From the reuse and upgrade of existing buildings to the conscious specification of low-carbon materials and technologies, to the thoughtful design of hybrid, flexible spaces 鈥� these schemes consider their environment and give generously to their community.

鈥淚n their architects鈥� attention to detail, and their clients鈥� determination and commitment, these six projects distinguish themselves and represent the best of UK architecture today. Together they demonstrate the power of exceptional architecture to enhance lives. My congratulations to everyone involved.鈥�

RIBA said the 2022 Stirling Prize winner would be announced on 13 October at the institute鈥檚 66 Portland Place headquarters in London.
