Dublin architect wins award in UK

The Irish Times

Dublin-based architect Tom de Paor was named in London last night as Young Architect of the Year 2003 following a worldwide competition organised by Building Design magazine. The jury, chaired by Richard Feilden, was convinced by de Paor's "understated, playful, suggestive, funny and profound" work, and unanimously agreed that he should be awarded the title, plus a prize of £5,000.
