The first I should sound like two E's, the second one like the I in 'in',
otherwise, phonetically.

How about Coop Himmelblau. Do I need to pronounce 'Himmulblau' quickly too?

Say "leave-uh-skinned" quickly, substituting "b" for the "v."

Or, call him "the five-foot Pole" as one of my colleagues did, when he (Libeskind) bothered to come to studio.

For perfect pronounciation, the last "d" in "kind" is pronounced more like "t".

I always have trouble with Coop Himmelb(l)au. I get the Himmelb(l)au part Blue Sky/Design, or whatever. But is it co-op, like cooperative? Or is it pronounced coop, like a chicken coop?

i think coop like a chicken coop. one of the jurors on my final project once interned for coop himmelblau, and that's how he pronounced it.

11-year old thread? This must be some sort of record.

^ Yes, but I like the fact that someone actually searched the threads before starting a new one.  Thank you, coeywong88!
