RIBA Yorkshire are asking for projects for possible inclusion in the “popular and influential” RIBA Architecture Review Yorkshire 2007, due for publication in May. If anyone has worked on anything suitable (and some of you must have) then speak to Claire Bedford and get it submitted. Read on for more details…

“As in previous years, the book will include a comprehensive Directory of RIBA Registered Practices in the RIBA Yorkshire region; topical editorial supplied by RIBA Yorkshire covering various subjects of relevance to clients and end users; and a major full colour section reviewing and exhibiting examples of projects, large and small, carried out by members throughout the region.

“We attach a letter giving further information on the book and a copy of a Project Submission Form, to fill in and return to publishers Excel.  An electronic version of the form is also available to download here. We are not asking to be sent photographs of the projects at this stage, but a brief description ( 150/180 words or so) is of great interest and is a considerable help. As a practice, you are not restricted as to how many projects you may put forward so, if you have produced projects within the Residential, Industrial and/or Commercial, Education, Housing, Sport and/or Leisure, Retail, Health/Medical, Public/Community/Government or Religious Buildings sectors, then please fill in your forms and submit your projects now, in order to make the publication as comprehensive as possible and representative of the best work being carried out in the region.

“We are interested in receiving details of projects completed since September 2005 and due to complete by end March/early April 2007. The book is not sector specific and projects from all the sectors mentioned above, both large and small, are welcome.”
