A 24-year-old from Attleborough has been recognised for an "outstanding" student project.

Harriet Key received a national award at the annual AT Awards, which is organised by the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT).

Ms Key, who graduated with a first from Anglia Ruskin University in July, won the Student Award for Excellence in Architectural Technology for her project Cranwood Residence.

Her design for a zero-carbon, multi-generational housing development in Muswell Hill was praised by judges for its "great eye for detailing" and "advanced understanding of the design process".
