 PREMIER'S DESIGN AWARD, 2008 Paul Minifie, RMIT Architecture Senior Lecturer Jan van Schaik, RMIT Architecture Lecturer Practice: Minifie Nixon "Australian Wildlife Centre", Healesville winner: State of Design Premier's Design Awards, Cultural Award, 2008 Judge’s Comment: “This is an outstanding example of design innovation in the area of complex geometries/mathematics and architecture that has been effective in delivering excellent outcomes for the client. Contemporary architecture is littered with twisted hulks that had as their unfortunate origin, a metaphor in mathematical models such as the Möbius Strip or fractal geometries. This building however, uses such models intelligently to generate rich spatial, material and pattern outcomes.”  RAIA VICTORIA STATE AWARDS 2008 Nigel Bertram, RMIT Architecture Senior Lecturer Director, RMIT Urban Architecture Laboratory Practice: NMBW Architecture Studio with Marika Neustupny, Lucinda McLean "Elwood House" winner: RAIA VIC State, Residential Architecture, Alterations and Additions, Architecture Award, 2008 ARTICLE Paul Walker, "Elwood House, NMBW Architecture Studio," in Architecture Australia, July/August 2008  RAIA VICTORIA STATE AWARDS 2008 Nigel Bertram, RMIT Architecture Senior Lecturer Director, RMIT Urban Architecture Laboratory Practice: NMBW Architecture Studio with Marika Neustupny, Lucinda McLean and RMIT Urban Architecture Laboratory "Pioneer Museum Plaza," Jeparit winner: RAIA VIC State, Regional Prize, 2008 RAIA VIC State, Small Project, Architecture Award, 2008  RAIA VICTORIA STATE AWARDS 2008 Peter Corrigan, RMIT Architecture Lecturer, Adjunct Professor Practice: Edmond and Corrigan with Maggie Edmond "Lux Residence Alterations," Caulfield winner: RAIA VIC State, Small Project, Architecture Award, 2008  SUSTAINABLE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMPETITION COMMISSION Housing design for two families, competition entry Designers: Shane Murray, Graham Crist and Diego Ramirez, RMIT Architecture Practice: Metropolitan Housing Laboratory Winning commission: VicUrban Sustainable and Affordable Housing Competition, 2007 Announced August 02, 2007 VicUrban Media Release VicUrban intends to build the first three display homes in metropolitan Melbourne in Autumn 2008.

Perhaps the most engaging aspect of this portrait is the use of multiple voices to tell the story. This seems wise. Slightly larger than life, with great presence and firm views on design, politics and society, Kevin Borland’s character might challenge the skills of any one author. Through the essays by Daryl Jackson, Conrad Hamann, Peter McIntyre, Norman Day and several members of Borland’s family, the reader gradually accumulates a rich tapestry of anecdotes, adventurous projects, affectionate memories and striking remarks, which round out the picture of an architect at work as teacher, critic, and committed practitioner. Without this book, the work and life of a significant Melbourne architect might have been lost to later generations. This award also recognises the support of RMIT in the monograph series, an important publishing initiative which deserves to continue."
