In 2022, the Hackney School of Food by Surman Weston was awarded the annual prestigious Stephen Lawrence Prize, which from 2023 is given to a project led by an early career architect.
This truly noteworthy scheme provides a service unlike any other to the community; an inspiring place to teach children to grow, cook and eat food. The details are considered and thoughtfully designed to support utility, creating many architectural moments of delight.
This is a recording of a live event held at 66 Portland Place, London on 22 March 2023.
Hosted by RIBA Role Model Satwinder Samra, this video explores the story of the winning project from founders Tom Surman and Percy Weston. Special guests include Henry Dimbleby MBE, founding partner of Hackney School of Food, members of the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation, and musician and poet James Massiah.
Building Stories: The Awards Talks is a series of live digital and in-person talks where architects reveal what it takes to create a RIBA award-winning building.
