BBC: "Stirling Prize: Vote for your favourite building"


Link to web site

"Six buildings have been shortlisted for this year's Royal Institute of British Architects' Stirling Prize - considered one of the top accolades in the world of architecture. The awards are for buildings with original and imaginative designs, which meet the needs of their users."

"Stirling Prize judges say Newhall Be raises the bar
in terms of commercial house building.
But why is this development so different, and
what does it tell us about the modern home?"

"Park Hill, which opened in 1961, was the most ambitious
inner city housing scheme of its time.
... By stripping it back to its crumbling concrete shell and
redesigning the apartments and the surrounding area,
architects Hawkins/Brown and Studio Egret West have
made it desirable again."
