ENDURING ARCHITECTURE AWARD
.
From the Jury:
"...The former CBH Building in West Perth is a fine piece of architecture which received national recognition for the architects, Summerhayes and Associates, when completed in 1968 – receiving the RAIA Bronze Medal.

The building’s planning and approach to passive solar design principles was not only advanced for its time but could well be an exemplar for consideration by young architects today.

The CBH building was Heritage-Listed in 2015, and we are delighted to award it the 2024 Richard Roache Jewell Award for Enduring Architecture."
