The Robin Boyd Award for New Residential Architecture is an Australian national architecture prize presented annually by the Australian Institute of Architects since 1981.
The award is the highest in the residential architecture category. Alongside the named award, secondary awards are given including a 'National Award' and 'National Commendation' to highly regarded entries.
The award is presented in memory of the Australian architect Robin Boyd CBE (1919—1971), and is awarded to residential architecture that sets benchmarks for meeting client's needs, responding to the site and providing shelter that is at the leading edge of house design.
