- Given in recognition of a lifetime’s work, the Royal Gold Medal is approved personally by the Monarch and is given to a person or group of people who have had a significant influence either directly or indirectly on the advancement of architecture.
On hearing the news that she had received the Royal Gold Medal, Yasmeen said: "I was so surprised to hear this news and of course totally delighted! I never imagined that as I focus on my country's most marginalised people - venturing down uncharted vagabond pathways -- I could still be considered for the highest of honours in the architectural profession."
"RIBA and the Award Committee have heralded a new direction for the profession, encouraging all architects to focus not only on the privileged but also humanity at large that suffers from disparities, conflicts and climate change. There are innumerable opportunities to implement principles of circular economy, de-growth, transition design, eco urbanism, and what we call Barefoot Social Architecture (BASA) to achieve climate resilience, sustainability and eco justice in the world."
The Royal Gold Medal 2023 programme is sponsored by Arper.
The purest form of architecture, built of the environment as a posed to just in the environment. Beautiful!
Your content is so stimulating. Most architecture present in ArchDaily is a monumental ego trip of architecture/architects. Your content open our eyes, offering hope with practices considering biodiversity. Congratulations
Wow what an amazing video, thank you 😊
Lovely lady, such a great inspiration for the next generation.
Well directed film 👏🏻
Well deserved award for a great woman and architech. God bless her and her people..
So much to learn from! Well deserved award.
Her commitment is matchless. Within the limited resources she managed to deliver internationally recognized stuff, which is truly a distinction.
