@LAdelaideS @mayorofhackney @carowoodley @WGHaggerston @MayorofLondon @GroundworkLON Such a lovely addition to the basin. The willow perimeter is a wonderful detail. I look forward to seeing everything grow and the wildlife arrive. Thanks so much to all involved for your hard work!

So earlier @carowoodley & I got to join @WGHaggerston to plant the final ferns & cut the string @ their new #depaving project in Kingsland Basin, it has created a stunning urban copse. Project led by @LAdelaideS w/ @MayorofLondon & @GroundworkLON 💚 funds twitter.com/WGHaggerston/s…

#depaving in progress making space for a copse with silver birch and understory planting at Kingsland Basin Nature Reserve. Satisfying to see layers of grey pulled away, revealing the soil. Project managed by @LAdelaideS funded by @MayorofLondon and @GroundworkLON 💚

@ForsterAnnette @RIBA @Rural_Office @GrandDesigns @chris_keymer @HeritageRoofing @wienerbergeruk Thanks to #keymer and @wienerbergeruk for such a beautifully crafted tile. A huge thank you also to Gary Lambert & team at completeroofingcontractors.com for their technical and practical skill resolving details but also for keeping the architects in good humour at all times.

@rktecture @RIBA @RIBASouthEast @Rural_Office @GrandDesigns Agree grouping seemed a bit arbitrary. Groups aside there were some great houses on both shortlist and long list. Lots I'd like to visit for a closer look.

It is a joy to work with @PatsWH and I hope we'll work together for many years to come. twitter.com/Rural_Office/s…

Other buggers efforts (OBE) 1) Patrick the project manager. Appointed by James to manage the job on site, steady the ship and keep everyone in line. He’s not a sergeant major, just a pragmatist with charm. A country boy at heart who keeps fit and keeps hens. Thank you Patrick.

@rktecture @RIBA @RIBASouthEast @Rural_Office @GrandDesigns Its also worth examining the relationship between cost and architectural merit. Is something better because its more affordable, or worse if expensive? Architecture is in the public domain so always a question worth asking.

@rktecture @RIBA @RIBASouthEast @Rural_Office @GrandDesigns Thats a good question. The RIBA jury did receive that information but the client wished it to be confidential. Some clients want their details and costs to remain private. If disclose was mandatory a lot of interesting buildings may not come be published or put forward for awards
