Reiach & Hall Architects and Michael Laird Architects designed an immense new college campus in the heart of Glasgow. It has been nominated for the prestigious Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Stirling Prize, which will be announced on Tuesday 31 October.

What the judges said...

"A super-college bringing together facilities and teaching previously housed in 11 separate buildings across the city within two new central campuses. City Campus, more than 60,000 square metres in size, is the second of these large new buildings. It brings together six major faculties in 300 high-tech classrooms, multi-purpose lecture theatres and specialist teaching facilities.

"There is an astonishing scale and complexity to the brief for this project, and considerable architectural skill is demonstrated in its realisation; not just in resolving the brief, but in the contribution to the city 鈥� in massing, composition and the generosity of the public route through the grand stepped atrium space.

"This architectural skill extends beyond the cityscape through to the detailed care taken in the organisation of student spaces, encouraging social interaction across disciplines, to the considered approach to materials and detailing.鈥�
