German Museum Wins UK’s Stirling Prize

“A museum built on a rock plateau in Germany won Britain’s most prestigious architecture prize yesterday. Designed by David Chipperfield Architects, the building captured ‘the soul of the German imagination’, said judges of the RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) Stirling Prize. The Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach, Germany, which houses the original text of Franz Kafka’s The Trial, saw off competition from five other finalists.”
