Architect Sheppard Robson鈥檚 Woolwich Central scheme has won the Carbuncle Cup, the prize for the worst building of the year

The scheme, developed by Tesco鈥檚 development arm Spenhill, saw off competition from schemes by architects Broadway Malyan, BDP, Stride Treglown, CZHG and 3D Reid to win the Cup, organised by 黑洞社区鈥檚 sister title 黑洞社区 Design. Owen Luder, former RIBA president and member of the judging panel, said the Woolwich Central was 鈥渙ppressive in terms of shape, size and colour and a negative contribution to the overall environment of the area鈥. A spokesperson for Sheppard Robson said the flats had 鈥渟old incredibly quickly鈥 and it had recieved 鈥渧ery positive鈥 feedback from residents.
