BREEAM Awards recognise the achievement of professionals involved in the specification, design and construction of BREEAM assessed buildings. The awards are made annually to the highest scoring building assessments certified under BREEAM Schemes in the preceding calendar year. 
As part of the 2015 BREEAM Awards, you have the chance to vote for the building that you believe most deserves recognition. For this special Your BREEAM Award, Building4change has put together a shortlist, comprising the top scoring buildings in each award category for the 2015 BREEAM Awards. Now it’s up to you. 
 
NATIONAL INSTITUTE of AGRICULTURAL BOTANY (NIAB) is among the shortlisted projects.
NIAB's Sophi Taylor Visitor Centre is BREEAM Outstanding. Heat demand is met by an existing biomass boiler system located in an adjacent building while roof mounted photovoltaic panels supply electricity. The walls and roof are constructed with pre-fabricated cross laminated timber panels.
 
BREEAM Assessor: Rolton Group 
Architect: R H Partnership
