The GOMA building planned by Kerry and Lindsay Clare,[3] chiefs of the Australasian firm Architectus, was added to the complex in 2006. In 2007, the building got three grants: a Brisbane Commendation and a Public Architecture Award from the Queensland Chapter of AIA; and a National Award for Public Architecture, again from AIA. At that point in 2010, the Clares got the AIA's Gold Medal for their work. Around the same time, an augmentation of the SLQ building composed by the Brisbane modelers Donovan Hill and Peddle Thorp was opened. For their outline, the designers were granted the prestigious Sir Zelman Cowen Award for Public Architecture by AIA in 2007.
