The UK's Worst New Building: A Look at the Carbuncle Cup Winner

The latest issue of Dezeen Agenda highlights the winner of this year's Carbuncle Cup, awarded to the UK's worst new building.

Liverpool's Lime Street redevelopment, designed by Broadway Malyan, has been declared the recipient of the prestigious, albeit dubious, award.

The Carbuncle Cup, organized by The Fence, critiques buildings completed since 2018, with this year's winner being described as a "hideous bit of architectural misadventure."

The design features etched metal panels on one facade, drawing criticism for its aesthetic and overall impact on the surrounding environment.
