“Certain sorts of building have always been doomed: specifically, private houses (too self-indulgent) and (other than one exceptional case) commercial buildings.

Architects are also seduced by glamour. Worthy buildings never win the Stirling. If you want worthy, follow the Prime Minister’s Better Buildings Award.”
