Landmark Milton Keynes destination Unity Place recognised nationally and regionally with multiple award wins and nominations.
Unity Place, the landmark workplace and community destination in the heart of Milton Keynes, has been shortlisted for multiple prestigious awards this year, celebrating its design innovation, social impact, and contribution to sustainable development.
Already a winner of the Environment, Social & Governance (ESG) Award at the British Council for Offices (BCO) Midlands Awards, Unity Place is now in the running for several national accolades, including the National ESG Award at the BCO Awards in October.
The BCO judges praised how Unity Place ‘fosters collaboration and community centred around an internal street with independent retail, restaurants, and a community hall’.
Alongside the BCO win, Unity Place has also been:
· Shortlisted in the Society of Facade Engineering (SFE) Awards 2025 in the Innovation (UK) category, recognising its forward-thinking architectural design and sustainability-led construction methods.
· Shortlisted in the British Construction & Infrastructure Awards (BCIA) 2025 for the Social Value & Community Impact Award highlighting its significant contribution to community wellbeing and engagement.
· Shortlisted in the South Region for the prestigious Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Awards 2025, placing Unity Place among the most exemplary architectural projects in the country.
These nominations reflect Unity Place’s growing reputation as a model for inclusive, sustainable urban development — one that not only enhances Milton Keynes’ skyline but also delivers lasting benefits to the local community.
Unity Place’s centre experience manager Nathan Kennard said: “It’s fantastic to see Unity Place receiving such well-deserved recognition. These awards highlight the ambition behind the project — to create a place where people come together to work, connect, and thrive.
“We’re particularly proud of the BCO ESG Award win, which reinforces the positive social and environmental impact Unity Place is having right here in Milton Keynes.”
Unity Place also achieved considerable success in 2024 across acclaimed property, construction and design awards.
And with more award announcements expected in October and November, Unity Place continues to lead the way in shaping the future of work and community in the region.
