Germany's Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach am Neckar has won this year's Stirling Prize for architecture. Designed by David Chipperfield — whose America's Cup building in Valencia, Spain, also made the competition's shortlist — the updated neoclassical pavilion beat out projects by Rem Koolhaas' OMA, Norman Foster, Glenn Howells, and Haworth Tompkins. Some critics, in praising Chipperfield's accomplishment, wondered why the best British architects continue to work outside of the UK. The Stirling winner didn't even complete his recent work on BBC's Glasgow headquarters at Pacific Quay; Chipperfield lost the commission midway through the project.
