MINISTER’S AWARD FOR URBAN DESIGN 2025
For the first time, the 2025 Minister’s Award for Urban Design was shared between two projects, both by Blight Rayner Architects.
Mary’s Place in Dalby, the town’s new central square, won the award for its combining of creating a vibrant multifaceted town heart while telling ‘a story of resilience and rebirth – a space serving as a physical community heart while also commemorating the figurative heart of a regional Queensland community’.
The Kangaroo Point Bridge, a partnership between Blight Rayner and Danish practice Dissing & Weitling, won the award for its ‘masterful balancing of complex functional and structural priorities with a deeply generous program of urban experiences…embedding many small acts of kindness for a truly enriched public realm’.
