RSUA is currently refreshing its Design Quality Panel.

All RSUA Chartered Members are invited to nominate up to three architects to sit on the Panel from 2026 to 2030.

The RSUA Design Quality Panel is a group of peer-approved architects who assist clients with brief development, assessment of design quality at tender, judging design competitions and undertaking design reviews.

All nominees must be ARB registered and a member of RSUA. You can read a little bit more about the architects who were appointed to the panel in 2018 here.  

Architects can not nominate themselves.

There is no need to seek permission from an architect before proposing them, as a proposal only puts them in the running to get an invite. All nominees will be asked to confirm their willingness to be considered and to provide a 200-word submission detailing their relevant experience and expertise. Members who were appointed to the panel in 2018 can be nominated to join the new panel.

RSUA Council will consider each submission and will take account of the number of proposals each nominee has received. Where 75% of RSUA Council members support a nominee, that architect will be invited to join the 2026-2030 panel.

To make a proposal please contact Jude Faloon by by emailing jude@rsua.org.uk or by phoning 0748 334 6329.

Proposals should be made by 5pm on Friday 27 March 2026.

If you have any queries, please contact Jude Faloon using the details above.
