And the 2021 Photography Competition wins go to…

Over September, beauty, creativity and diversity were captured in the first-ever Plus Architecture Photography Competition.

Talent was abundant with over 60 entries received from staff across all Plus studios in Australia and New Zealand.

We truly appreciate our judges Ian Briggs, Plus Director at Plus and Cassie Hansen, Editor at Artichoke Magazine for taking on the difficult challenge of reviewing, discussing and selecting this year’s winners.

Speaking about the competition, Briggs noted “It was great to see so many fabulous photos – the scale of participation across our studios was incredible. These are not only amazing pictures, they were taken by our people. With many of our teams working from home, they shared their world at a very interesting time – it was a great program. Cassie and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and much debate was had as we went through the pros and cons of each photograph.”

Thanks to all those from Plus Architecture who entered and helped coordinate this year's competition. ​​​​​​​ 

Meet our talented team and their incredible images.
