CPW Supports Nottingham Rising Stars
Our Nottingham office has once again teamed up with Nottingham Trent University (NTU) to award six of its top students with prestigious awards.
In a presentation held at the university, six students from the schools of Architecture, Interior Architecture and Design and Architectural Technology had their hard work recognised as they were awarded prizes to highlight their achievement.
CPW judged three categories and it selected the winner and most improved student in each category. The team chose James Clements for environmental/integrated services design and Anna Lorf for most improved. Then Olivia Jackson won best environmental and integrated services response with Matt Gordon as most improved in that category. Finally, the best technical response was awarded to Ellen Brown and Rheneas Chudley won most improved.
Alex Jones, director at CPW acted as a judge on behalf of the company, he said: “We are delighted to be involved again this year as we’re really passionate about championing Nottingham talent, particularly in the property and construction sectors.
“All the shortlisted projects were brilliant so it was really hard to pick a winner but James, Ellen and Olivia’s projects all really stood out. Their creativity was astounding and it is talent like this that we need to retain within the region.”
Anna Lorf, winner of the most improved student award, said: “My project was a science educational centre and the site I chose was on Crocus Street, Nottingham. My project was largely inspired after I visited a science centre in Copenhagen, called the Experimentaruim, where children can learn through fun activities.
“I felt very honoured to have won an award, it made me feel very proud of what I have achieved during my years at university. To be recognised by industry professionals is fantastic and I’m glad they enjoyed my work as much as I did this year.”
Ellen Brown, winner of the best technical response award, added: “I was so shocked to win the award, I really wasn’t expecting to hear my name called out that evening. It was a much-needed confidence boost and I’ve proudly listed the award on my CV.”
