LONDON, December 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Coffey Architects beats the odds

A small London-based business has defied the recession to become Britain's most promising architecture practice.

Coffey Architects has scooped the coveted Young Architect of the Year Award after impressing a panel of judges including artist Pablo Bronstein, Kathryn Firth of the London Legacy Company and award winning architects Graham Stirk and Clare Wright.

The judges for this year's Young Architect of the Year Award spent a full two hours deliberating over the choice of winner.

In the end, Coffey won out, the judges being swayed by the energy and professionalism of the presentation and noting their particular admiration for two small libraries that the practice had completed - one for the British Film Institute and the other an addition to a primary school in Kentish Town. These beautifully conceived projects convey an interest in making rooms that runs through all of Coffey's work.

"This means the world to me because all I've ever wanted to be was an architect," said Phil Coffey. "As well as being an award for what we've done, it's an award for what might be possible in the future. Making things of beauty is what architecture is all about, ideas are not enough - it's about light, form, empathy and context."

Many painters and architects have also been guided by Her. http://www.sahajayoga.org Saraswati is the Goddess of knowledge and learning. She sometimes appears alone on this chakra [Swadhisthan], and Her image appears to convey to human beings the real meaning of all knowledge. In one hand She often holds a veena symbolizing that the one who has knowledge (Gyani) must be a person who knows the music of the Divine. Indian classical music is based on the original Primordial Sound (Brahma Nada). So at this chakra, the Goddess appears with a veena to suggest that if you are a scholar you must also have the knowledge of music.
