Irish architects pipped at post for premier prize
Poland’s Philharmonic Hall in Szczecin wins Mies van der Rohe prize
Prize-winning Philharmonic Hall in Szczecin designed by Barcelona architects Barozzi-Veiga O’Donnell + Tuomey’s Saw Swee Hock Student Centre at the London School of Economics – a riot of brickwork off Lincoln’s Inn Fields – was runner-up on the shortlist of five.
Irish architects O’Donnell + Tuomey have been pipped at the post for the premier Mies van der Rohe prize for European architecture, which went to the Philharmonic Hall in Szczecin, Poland.
