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, commonly 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.
National Awards
Since 1981 a total of eight Wilkinson Award winners have won the national Robin Boyd Award later in the same year at the Australian national architecture awards, regarded as the highest award for residential architecture in Australia.
Multiple Winners
Glenn Murcutt has won the award on six occasions and Harry Seidler and Ken Woolley on four occasions. Alexander Tzannes and Durbach Block Jaggers have won the award three times each.
