The RIBA Stirling Prize has captured the public imagination. It shows what good contemporary architecture can offer and highlights the very best of British architectural talent.
The prize is now celebrating its tenth year, and this exhibition explores the nine projects that have won to date. The tenth winner will be announced on 15 October 2005, live on Channel 4.
