The Brewhouse and Trident Park project, part of a Farsons Brewery regeneration project, has earned another award for Farsons.
Announced on 5th November in an awards ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London, the Building Awards has awarded The Brewhouse and Trident Park project the International Project of the Year 2024.
The award was collected by Jonathan Shaw from ritchie*studio, the globally renowned architectural practice that led the regeneration project.
The Brewhouse and Trident Park project was shortlisted in the International Project of the Year 2024 category together with Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, a stadium in New York City, Skylight, a new commercial build in Madrid and Oaks Phase 1, a residential build in Prague.
During the ceremony the judges said that this project meets all criteria with a “stunning retrofit of an old brewery into working and leisure spaces, featuring a thermally active building system and achieving a 55 per cent reduction in whole life cycle CO2 emissions.”
Coinciding with the awards’ 30th anniversary, “more than 1,000 of the industry’s finest got together to celebrate these global awards” wrote Farsons in a statement.
“It is again a great honour to be recognised among so many other international quality buildings and developments. We are immensely proud of this industrial regeneration project that is a first of its kind on the island,” commented Michael Farrugia, Director of both Simonds Farsons Cisk plc and Trident Estates plc, as well as deputy CEO of the Farsons beverage business, on this latest award.
The €86 million Farsons Brewery regeneration project has seen one of Malta’s 20th-century industrial buildings transformed into a “green office campus and world-class business destination.”
The project was led by renowned architect Ian Ritchie from London-based ritchie*studio in collaboration with Alex Torpiano's engineering-focused Maltese practice TBA Periti, and environmental physicist Doug King.
