The ArchiTeam awards recognise the achievements of small, medium and emerging architectural practices.

This year's judging panel was Rachel Nolan, director Kennedy Nolan, Jeremy McLeod, founder Breathe Architecture, and Stuart Harrison, director HAW, writer and broadcaster.

Ari Apartments by OLA Studio won in the residential division. The development consists of nine apartments and a ground floor retail space, and is located in an historic brick-making district. Drawing on this historic link, the development has taken brickwork beyond the traditional, and shown how the material can be used creatively in contemporary architecture.

The residential alterations award was jointly won by Thornbury House by Claire Scorpo Architects and The Portal by Architecture Architecture.

The Thornbuy House project is an extension to a timber Californian bungalow. With a tight budget and timeframe, the frame for the extension was prefabricated off-site.

The Portal project extends a Californian Bungalow by creating sun-drenched living spaces that span off a central shaft, breaking up the large garden and creating courtyards and children's play areas.

The winner of the commercial division was Harry Hall Restaurant and Wine Bar, by Davidov Partners Architects. This work leaves remnants of previous occupants exposed, creating a rustic atmosphere.

Church St Johns by Tessellate won the community architecture award with an upgrade to the existing church. The original church hall was demolished, and a pre-fabricated new building was craned into position over two days, minimising disruption to church services.

In the unbuilt category, Nervegna Reed Architecture won with The Kata Tjunta, an ecological system and sculptural event for a section of the CityLink Road corridor. The site is highly visible site but inaccessible to the general public. Olga-like outcrops tank rainfall and filter it back into the environment through waterfalls and streams.
