The Irish Georgian Society invites applications for its 2024 Architectural Conservation and Original Drawing Awards from all Irish architects and architectural practices, building surveyors, contractors, engineers, and other professionals involved in the conservation of historic buildings on the island of Ireland. The mission of the Awards is to encourage excellence in conservation and to celebrate those conservation professionals and practitioners responsible for projects of merit.

There will be two award categories: one for a conservation project and one for an original drawing (non-CAD) relating to an historic building or structure. Applications concerning historic buildings of all types, including vernacular, are welcome. Previously shortlisted projects have included churches, civic structures, courtyards, and houses both urban and rural.

The application form is available as a PDF here or as a Word document here.

Applications must be received to the email listed below by 12 noon on Friday 3rd May 2024.
