Jury Chair for the 2025 Tasmanian Architecture Awards, Sarah Lindsay, said this year's projects sparked "rich and thought-provoking conversations".
Lindsay went on to say the winners touched on important and timely themes including "sustainable forestry practices, trauma-informed design, education pedagogies, and the urgent housing crisis."
"These discussions reminded us of the profound role architecture plays in shaping not just our built environment, but our collective future," she said.
In a statement, the jury said the projects demonstrated that Tasmania's architects understood "how our built environment intersects with climate resilience, social inclusion, and cultural continuity."
"Across all scales and typologies, we witnessed a consistent dedication to enhancing the human experience and enriching the fabric of our communities," the statement read.
Two projects were each recipients of three awards.
The Shed, University of Tasmania by Wardle, took out the awards for Educational Architecture and Interior Architecture, and a commendation for Sustainable Architecture.
Notes from the jury commended The Shed on its ability to "elevate educational environments through spatial generosity, environmental responsibility, and a deep connection to place."
Tolpuddle Tasting Room by Tanner Architects won theCommercial Architecture and the EmAGN Project Awards, and received a commendation for Sustainable Architecture.
The jury said the project exemplified "a refined and disciplined approach to commercial architecture, achieving balance between agricultural authenticity and architectural sophistication."
On the residential side, Jordan House by Preston Lane was awarded for Residential Architecture - Houses (Alterations and Additions) and received a commendation for the Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture.
Of the project, the jury said Preston Lane has created a "deliberate separation between the addition and the original rear facade, together with a restrained material palette, has enabled the careful reconstruction of heritage elements, offering a moment of pause to appreciate the historic dwelling in its entirety."
Stunning coastal home Nebraska by Lara Maeseele received the award for Residential Architecture - Houses (New).
The jury were impressed by the project's "careful arrangement of five bedrooms that supports communal holiday living while maintaining a sense of intimacy and retreat."
