This year’s World Architecture Festival (WAF), a highlight of the international architecture calendar, Hames Sharley stand to win an award for their design and build of the Whyalla Regional Cancer Centre in South Australia.

The WAF awards bring together architects and judges in the one room where nominees and delegates will hear directly from shortlisted entrants.

The primary focus of the world-class cancer centre is healing and healthcare delivery; the building keeps these principles at the forefront of its design purpose and function. Reports in the regional Whyalla News express hospital staff excitement about the WAF nomination.
