21 Moorfields named The City Building of the Year 2025
21 Moorfields, designed by WilkinsonEyre Architects, has been named as The City Building of the Year, an annual prize established by the Architects’ Company. The award will be presented at the Company’s annual awards dinner on 10th July, with a plaque unveiling ceremony by the Lord Mayor of London scheduled for 15th October.
This year’s jury, made up of architects, experts and representatives from the Worshipful Company of Chartered Architects unanimously selected 21 Moorfields, describing it as “a tour de force both of architectural thinking and creative collaboration.”
Giles Martin, Board Director at WilkinsonEyre said: “We are delighted to be named as the winner of City of London Building of the Year for the second year in a row. 21 Moorfields has been the work of many hands and a real collaboration between everyone from transport authorities, developers, and tenant over more than a decade. Its expressive structure belies the complexity of the station tunnels and platforms below, and we are proud it will stand for generations to come, showing off the best of London’s skill and talent.”
Vathany Vijayaratna, UKI CEO commented, “Congratulations to Giles and the entire team at Wilkinson Eyre! They have created a fantastic new headquarters for us here in London. 21 Moorfields has been significant for us. It’s the biggest office we’ve ever had in the UK, and the quality and thoughtfulness of their design shines through. The space they have created strikes a perfect balance between functionality and modern design, creating an environment that encourages collaboration and inspires innovation. The feedback from clients, visitors and staff has been really positive, and it’s a building we're proud to welcome people into.”
