2013 Winner
Barcadere Marina, George Town (Commercial)
Once a desolate, misused North Sound backwater just east of George Town, the Barcadere Marina is a modern maritime community centre with a strong Caymanian cultural resonance.
Although executed in a contextual vernacular influenced by local, Jamaican and Floridian historical architectural elements, the marina development deploys contemporary materials specification and construction techniques that successfully reinterpret historically significant regional architectural styles whilst creating a technically proficient and sustainable precinct that remains sensitive to local scale and environment.
