Architects from Maccreanor Lavington have achieved success in the Europan11 competition.

Three teams incorporating architects from the Anglo-Dutch practice received accolades ranging from a first prize to an honourable mention.

Young professionals from Zaha Hadid, Studio Weave and Panter Hudspith were also successful.

Europan is open to architects under the age of 40 who are invited to enter competitions for a number of projects on sites across Europe. Europan11 featured 49 competitions in 17 countries run in collaboration with local authorities.

Winners, who may go on to build their projects, receive €12,000. Runners-up receive €6,000. The judges can also award honourable mentions.

This year’s theme was: “Resonances between territories and ways of life – what architectures for sustainable cities?”

Ken Thompson, whose proposal for a 1960s apartment block in a Dutch new town won a first prize, entered with his Maccreanor Lavington colleagues Andrew Kitching and David Morison as well as Elena Chevtchenko of Dutch practice Maxwan.

He said: “It’s the fourth time I’ve entered Europan and the first time I’ve won. It’s a great feeling. We will be discussing the possibility of building our scheme with the client in January.”
