Another Dutch firm NL Architects, won the emerging architect award for their Basketbar in Utrecht (a-matter, arch'it) More info from Archined. | via | update: Rem to receive award in bcn today; see comments

This triumph for Rem over Lord Foster will surely thaw the icey cold between the two giants in their Texas project, reported to be getting worked out only through emails, conference calls and subordinate meetings.
Rem is suppose to lecture today that he will recieve the award at Salon Construmat: Fira de Barcelona, Avinguda Reina Ma. Cristina s/n, Recinte Montjuic. 17:00 hrs (palau de congressos sala 7)
I've been to the NL Basketbar, really, really nice, very smart sitting at the same height as the pavement ourstide, and the windows are sweet, I kept wondering where the structure was!
p.s. I do not work for NL architects ;-)
