Reiach and Hall Architects won the architectural excellence award for public use for The Inverness Justice Centre at The Scottish Property Awards 2021. Robertson Construction Limited was shortlisted with Reiach and Hall Architects for the Development of the Year (Public Buildings) category.
The Scottish Property Awards celebrate excellence in commercial and public property – recognising projects nationally as the greatest achievement in the built environment across Scotland. The judges said: The Inverness Justice Centre “showed excellent execution of producing a building which is sympathetic to the ethos and seriousness of the nature of the brief.”
Scotland’s first purpose-built Justice Centre in Inverness celebrates its first birthday on 30 March. The landmark facility, which began construction in 2017 is designed to bring together integrated justice services under one roof to support victims, witnesses, litigants and other users, with specially designed facilities for children and vulnerable witnesses.
It has played a pivotal role in maintaining essential justice services for Scotland during the current COVID crisis supporting both in person and online hearings during these unprecedented times for courts and tribunals.
