This remarkable building demonstrates many ways in which brick can be used. The precision and clarity of the expression persuaded the judges that it deserved the ‘best of the best’ award. Close co-operation between the architect and client produced a building that is two-thirds the size of a standard unit and is within the cost limits. It will provide an enduring legacy on the Olympic site.
