The RIBA鈥檚 Annie Spink Award 2016 goes to The Bartlett School of Architecture鈥檚 Professor Christine Hawley.

The award for architectural education was won by Professor Christine Hawley of The Bartlett School of Architecture in December 2016. The prestigious biennial prize 鈥� whose previous winners include Nigel Coates, Peter Cook and Dalibor Vesely 鈥� was established by architect Herbert Spink in 1974 in memory of his wife, Annie, and is open to architects from around the world.

Professor Hawley studied at the Architectural Association (AA) and was a partner at Cook and Hawley Architects. In 1993, following a stellar career at the AA and the University of East London, she started working at The Bartlett where she became Professor of Architectural Studies and later became Dean.

鈥淚 have been lucky enough to work with some of the most creative young students in architecture for the last four decades but the act of teaching, for me, has also been about learning 鈥� sometimes they are the teachers and I am the pupil,鈥� says Professor Hawley.

鈥淚 have also learned another important lesson: a creative environment is made only through people. I have collaborated with truly great teachers so this award honours both the students and teachers I have worked with.鈥�

Professor Bob Sheil, Director of The Bartlett School of Architecture, adds: 鈥淲inning the Annie Spink prize is a tremendous achievement and deserved recognition of Christine鈥檚 extraordinary contribution to architectural education, The Bartlett, 果冻影院, and most importantly students鈥� lives.鈥�
