Past winners: Excellence in Community Engagement


2021 Winner

Nominated by Victorian Health Building Authority

Vic hospital winner mid

The Victorian Health Building Authority responded to the Royal Commission’s report on Mental Health in Victoria and, noting the needs for more mental health beds, undertook to deliver the majority of 144 new beds across four precincts in Melbourne and Geelong in 2021.

To do this, the Victorian Health Building Authority conducted workshops and meetings with stakeholders including clinicians, consumers, architects, health services and key industry and consumer groups, and built a prototype to allow stakeholders to provide feedback.

They reworked procedures of engaging with health services that potentially caused trauma for consumers and families and allowed stakeholders to walk through a full-scale model of a room to then provide feedback before revisions.



2022 Winner

Nominated by MPavilion

The Lightcatcher was designed by Venetian architects Traudy Pelzel and Francesco Magnani of MAP studio. The seventh MPavilion in an ongoing series, the geometric, kaleidoscopic design of MPavilion 2021—The LightCatcher’—2as been envisioned as an urban lighthouse to illuminate MPavilion’s diverse program of free cultural events over that summer.

According to Pelzel: “The structure we imagine is a shimmering device that qualifies itself as an urban lighthouse that hosts and enlightens the cultural activities planned for the 2021 summer season in Melbourne ... A kaleidoscopic structure that reflects and amplifies activities, people and colours. For this reason, we call it The Lightcatcher.”
