In this mercurial age, when our fashion shifts overnight from the severe to the ornate, from contempt for the past to nostalgia for imaginary times that never were, Kevin Roche's formidable work sometimes intermingles with fashion, sometimes lags behind it, and more often creates it.
He is not an easy man to describe: an innovator who does not worship innovation for its own sake, a professional unconcerned with trends, a quiet and humble man who conceives and executes great works, a generous man with the highest standards for his own work.
In this award to Kevin Roche we recognise and honour an architect who persists in being an individual and who has marked for all of us, through his work and his person, a change for the better.
