My mission is to uncover the brightest of the newest generation of British architects and I am also struck to find young architects who really are young. Almost all are at some point in their 20s, with one or two past 30. Architecture is a slow-moving business, which makes a young architect – that is, someone of tender years with a distinctive achievement to their name – a much-quested beast. Prizes, exhibitions and books are created to lure them into the light. Usually the definition of youth is elastic: under 40 is a common limit, or maybe a bit over. I was once involved in such a project where an over-40 raged at being excluded. Couldn't we recognise, she said, that she was young at heart?
