gcp Shortlisted: Retrofit Design Practice of the Year!

We’ve been delighted to receive the news this week that gcp Chartered Architects has been shortlisted as a finalist for Retrofit Design Practice of the Year at the 2026 Retrofit Academy Awards. This is great news for the practice that celebrates our commitment to breathing new life into existing buildings, and builds nicely upon the success of Michael Hanson winning Retrofit Designer of the Year in 2025 😊

Retrofit isn’t just about homes. Across every sector, from offices to sports to community spaces, reusing and transforming what we already have is vital for a net‑zero future. Our congratulations to all the nominees across the various categories 🏆and our thanks to The Retrofit Academy for continuing to challenge the industry with these awards.
