The New Zealand Institute of Architects has launched an architectural writing competition for members of the public and secondary school students.

The Warren Trust Awards for Architectural Writing will be awarded to the authors of the best essays in the Open and Secondary School categories. The winner of the Open category, which includes tertiary students, will receive a prize of $1,500; the winner of the Secondary School category will receive $1,000.

The writing awards have been named for the Warren Architects Education Charitable Trust – the Warren Trust – which has supported the Institute of Architects in setting up the competition.

The deadline for submissions is 14 August 2015. The winning entries will be announced in the first week of September.

The essay topic, entry criteria and email address for submissions are set out on the New Zealand Institute of Architects website.
