2025 National President’s Prize
We were thrilled to hear that TFA founder, Emma Williamson, was recognised with the prestigious 2025 National President's Prize at last week's Australian Institute of Architects conference!
Emma, now serving as Western Australia’s Government Architect, received this honour alongside her colleagues in the Government Architects Network of Australia (GANA): Scott Balmforth, Abbie Galvin, Jill Garner, Leah Lang, and Kirsteen Mackay.
The jury praised GANA for their “exceptional leadership and dedication in the field of architecture and urban design” and highlighted how their work has “significantly shaped the built environment of Australia, enhancing the quality of life for all Australians.”
The citation commended GANA’s achievements in:
· Establishing design review frameworks that put good design at the heart of our cities
· Promoting sustainability and environmental stewardship in architectural practices
· Championing social equity and inclusivity in the built environment ·
Preserving Australia’s architectural heritage through restoration and adaptive reuse
· Advancing architectural education and the profession through collaboration
Emma’s commitment to quality design and creating spaces that benefit communities continues to inspire our work. While we still miss her, we are chuffed she’s doing so well in her new role.
