Rock Cove in Glasgow wins Prestigious Supreme Award at GIA Awards 2024

The Rock Cove Project by Cameron Webster Architects won the prestigious Supreme Award at the Glasgow Institute of Architects (GIA) Awards 2024, celebrated for its innovative and sustainable design approach. Located within a coastal setting, this striking residential design blends architectural creativity with environmental sensitivity, exemplifying the integration of modern aesthetics and natural surroundings. Its design features emphasise ecological harmony and thoughtful use of materials, catering to its unique location.

The project is a newbuild home set on a decommissioned military site. The design takes full advantage of the narrow, rocky promontory, creating a dramatic cantilevered structure that extends over the sea. Its linear form maximises both the constraints and opportunities of the site. The rear of the home houses four bedrooms overlooking a garden, while the front opens to a breathtaking sea-facing living area. This space features floor-to-ceiling glazingand a sheltered deck beneath a timbersoffit, serving as a viewing platform for the expansive coastal views.

This prestigious supreme award is a prominent platform within the architectural community in Scotland, which highlights projects that demonstrate outstanding design quality and environmental consideration. The Rock Cove Project stood out among entries for addressing site specific challenges while pushing boundaries in residential architecture.

The thoughtful design blends innovation with functionality, prioritising the site's natural beauty while adhering to modern architectural standards. The project’s ability to transform limitations into creative strengths is a testament to Cameron Webster Architects' expertise, securing its place as one of the most celebrated projects of the year.
