Riba president Stephen Hodder described it as an "outstanding example of how modern architecture an ancient monument may revive." The value is that it is not a conventional restoration project but the placement into an "incredibly strong contemporary home on expertly with 800 years of history intertwined".
While old buildings on the European continent all "for years" in this way restored (or updated) is (think of Castelvecchio in Verona by Carlo Scarpa or Sverre Fehn's Hedmark-katedraalmuseum), says Rory Olcayto, deputy editor of The Architect's Journal , this year's winner will be a turning point in bringing it the way the UK to historical buildings look.
