To much sun in .br !
Jean Nouvel is currently the best, in my view, and he is launching a world
invasion it seems.
He recently revealed that he will no built in France for a while...
probably in regards to his misfortune in the Stade the france competition.
Talks of work in progress in Corea, Australia and the States.
In other aspects of architecture,
"poetics of the design procedure" , Francis Soler has no equal. He's the
winner of the Congres Hall competition in Paris and also the San Francisco
Arbor Competition.
"mediatics of architecture," well Rem Koolhaas of course. Note: Tschumi ,
since he has started to build as faded of a little. Probably to see if what
he "talks" can also "walk"... a thing that is probably more difficult to do
on inhabited space -Fresnoy- than urban scale - la Villette.
Herzog and De Meuron are also doing interesting work but their switzerland
rigidity makes for less glamorous poetics and mediatics.
Of course in Quebec, there is Big City, Saucier + Perrotte and Dupuis Le
Tourneux architects but
Quebec architecture is too local - mainly for lack of media - to throw them
in discussion on the internet scale.

I admire the north american architecture... today, the greatest
architects in the world are americans... Frank Gehry (and his spetacular
Guggenheim Museum in Spain), Frank Lloyd Wright (with your fallingwater
house, and Robbie House, and imperial hotel), Richard Meier and others.
I was studying about Richard Meier projects, and i'd like to know, if he
works more in a specific area in USA...
Thanks!
