The annual awards evening on November 30, 2023, celebrated outstanding architectural and artistic achievements. The event began with a unanimous agreement on a refined constitution during a Special General Meeting, now accessible on our website.

TAG's Chairman, in front of a full house, highlighted the evening as a celebration not only of TAG's awards but also of Ben Pentreath, a TAG member, who earlier won the 2023 Richard H. Driehaus Prize. Ben, in his address, reflected on the progress of the architectural movement since the publication of the Prince of Wales's book in 1989. He drew a parallel to the Cultural Revolution in China, emphasizing the importance of preserving traditional architectural wisdom. Despite some lag in the architectural establishment and academia, Ben expressed optimism that the majority worldwide supports the values associated with traditional architecture.

The subsequent awards ceremony featured the recognition of exceptional talent across various categories: Best Measured Drawing, Student Projects, Best Member’s Built Project, Special Award and Lifetime Achievement Award. Visit our ‘awards’ page to find out who won.

The awards ceremony was followed by a popular drinks party, for which tickets had sold out quickly. Due to high attendance, the TAG committee regrets not being able to meet everyone. Considering this, TAG is contemplating an extra social event in Spring 2024.
