Late last week, the Royal Institute of British Architects announced the winners of its annual RIBA National Awards. The number of winning buildings has increased compared to previous seasons - this time there are 54 of them. More than a third of the awarded projects are adaptation to modern use and renovation of existing buildings.

These objects will later be shortlisted for the Sterling Award, which is awarded for the best building of the year. The list of structures, as always, is varied both in scale and in functionality. There are private houses and opera houses, a music school and a gallery in a former fire station. Most of the laureates are in the category of residential architecture. There are also many cultural institutions among the winners.

Below are all the awarded buildings. The Sterling Prize-winning building will be announced in the fall.
