Gurdip Chamba, chairman of the West Midlands judging panel, said: "Last year I was extremely proud to see our region take home the overall title of national project of the year for the second year running.
"The National Memorial Arboretum's Remembrance Centre showcased exemplary talent and plays a significant role in lives of so many people across the 海角视频.
"The West Midlands continues to grow into a place of real significance for the 海角视频 and our built environment plays an integral part to our future success and this year's projects continue to emphasise the fantastic talent behind the future of our built environment."
