Entries are open for The Loerie
Awards Architecture & Interior Design category.
This category encompasses all retail, corporate, restaurant, museum, gallery and show stand entries
which contribute to brand equity.
The entry deadline has now been extended to 14 June
– all new Architectural and Interior Design work
that has been completed between 1 June 2009 – 14
June 2010 is eligible for entry, including new
additions to an existing structure or brand, e.g. a
new store, restaurant, or upgrade. Full entry
information is available on the Loeries website,
including categories, entry guidelines and
preparations instructions.
The Architecture & Interior Design
category strengthens year on year to showcase some
of the most innovative work in our region. In 2009,
the elusive Loerie Grand Prix was awarded for the
Foxp2 offices. In 2008, a Grand Prix was received
by Trigger for the Nike Be True pop-up store and a
Gold was awarded to GAPP Architects & Urban
Designers for Freedom Park. In 2007, a Gold was also
received by GAPP Architects and Urban Designers in
association with MMA Architects for Maropeng
Visitor's Attraction, Cradle of Humankind. Silver
and Bronze Loeries have also been scooped over the
years.
A special extension until 13 July has
also been announced for World Cup related entries.
Work should be in one way or another related to the
hosting of the World Cup in South Africa this year,
and is not limited to official World Cup
communication. Eligible entries can be launched up
to 13 July and all entries must be received no later
than this date. Although this extension has been
granted, all entries received after 31 May will be
liable for the 5% late fee.
The awards ceremony will take place
during the Festival Weekend in Cape Town from 1 -3
October 2010. Tickets and accommodation bookings
are now open, visit the Loeries website for more
details. |
