Wilkinson Award

The Wilkinson Award is an Australian architecture award presented by the New South Wales Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects and was first awarded in 1961. The award recognises excellence in residential buildings built in New South Wales, Australia, often for freestanding houses, but at times awarding multiresidential projects and alterations and additions.

The medal is presented in memory of the Australian architect and academic Professor Leslie Wilkinson OBE, (12 October 1882 – 20 September 1973). Born in New Southgate, London, England he emigrated to Sydney in 1918 and became the first Dean of Architecture at the University of Sydney, School of Architecture.[1]
