A transformed 1930s fire station and a carbon-neutral nursery are among five projects to pick up regional architectural awards.
The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) announced the winners at a ceremony on Thursday evening celebrating great architecture across the country.
The five schemes were selected by an expert jury who visited all shortlisted entries.
Tim Collett, chair of the West Midlands RIBA jury, said the winning projects demonstrated how "constraints can become opportunities".
"Whether spanning a road tunnel, replacing a car park, or transforming underperforming existing structures into dynamic and exciting places to study and live, these projects deliver outstanding value," he said.
The 2025 RIBA West Midlands Award winning buildings are:
One Centenary Way by Howells, Birmingham
The sustainable, steel-frame office building, bridging over a busy road tunnel in Birmingham was awarded Project Architect of the Year.
Hanbury Hall by Howells, Worcestershire
The hall picked up its regional award after the addition of a new cafe to the Grade I listed country house.
University of Staffordshire Woodlands Nursery by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios
The timber-clad, carbon-neutral nursery, which is built on a former car park, received the Sustainability and Client of the Year award.
Coventry University, College of Arts & Society by BDP
The transformation of two brutalist buildings into a "future-facing hub" at Coventry Universities' College of Arts and Society was named Building of the Year.
The jury praised how the architects ambitiously "knitted the formerly disparate existing buildings together".
Old Fire Station by KKE Architects Ltd, Worcestershire
The 1930s fire station on Copenhagen Street picked up one of the regional awards after it had been renovated into 28 new apartments and a retail space.
Speaking about all UK award winners, RIBA president, Muyiwa Oki, said: "This year's winners exemplify architecture's power to transform – turning spaces into places of connection, creativity, and care."
The Midlands winners will now be considered for a RIBA national award, which will be announced on 10 July.
The shortlist for the RIBA Stirling Prize for the best building of the year, will then be drawn from the RIBA national award-winning projects later in the year.
