Carbuncle Cup
Encyclopedia
The Carbuncle Cup is an architecture
prize, given annually by the magazine Building Design
to "the ugliest building in the United Kingdom
completed in the last 12 months". The award was based on an idea created by the Scottish architecture magazine Prospect
, which has run the Carbuncle Awards since 2000. It is intended to be a humorous response to the prestigious Stirling Prize
, given by the Royal Institute of British Architects
to "the architects of the building which has made the greatest contribution to British architecture in the past year." The name of the award is derived from a comment by Prince Charles
, an outspoken critic of modern architecture, who in 1984 described Richard Rogers
' proposed extension of London's National Gallery
as a "monstrous carbuncle
on the face of a much-loved and elegant friend". The award was launched in 2006, with the first winner being Drake Circus Shopping Centre
in Plymouth
by Chapman Taylor. A shortlist is announced by Building Design each year, based on nominations from the public, and usually timed to coincide with the Stirling prize shortlist. Public voting via the magazine's website was used to select past winners, giving the award a sense of democratic involvement. Since 2009 a small group of critics has selected the final winners.
