The Melbourne Recital Centre and Melbourne Theatre Company have been nominated in the Architecture category of the Brit Insurance Designs of the Year 2010 awards at the Design Museum, London.
The Designs of the Year awards showcase the best in architecture, fashion, furniture, graphics, interactive, product and transport.
The exhibition at the Design Museum runs from February 17 to October 31 2010. The awards will be announced on March 4 and the overall design award presented on March 16.
ARM's exhibition includes two photopolymer rapid prototype models by ARRK, created using an Objet Connex 3D printer.
The Melbourne Recital Centre and MTC Theatre by ARM have been recognised at the 2009 Australian Institute of Architects National Architecture Awards receiving the Emil Sodersten Award for Interior Architecture.
Fittingly, ARM was presented with the prestigious award during last night's National Australian Institute of Architects Awards in the Elisabeth Murdoch Hall at the new Melbourne Recital Centre.
The National prize follows the ARM's Victorian Chapter success earlier this year with the AIA Victorian Architecture Medal, William Wardell Award for Public Architecture, Marion Mahony Award for Interior Architecture & Joseph Reed Award for Urban Design.
