This year's winner, Niall McLaughlin is described by Charles Jencks as "a great inspiration for architects today, especially the young, because of his masterful skill in drawing from all traditions - classicism, modernism, postmodernism - all the “isms” are under his belt, not on his back, and he extends them all through the commitment to architecture as an art and professional practice."About the winner:
