Florian Beigel has been announced as the winner of the Grand Berlin Art Prize 2013. Beigel, an architect and co-founder of London Met's Architecture Research Unit, will receive €15,000 for the honour. The jury, which included Francine Houben, Matthias Sauerbruch and Axel Sowa, praised Beigel for being "an outstanding and passionate professor". They said: "Beigel has a distinct sense of style. His work is never ideological and opinionated, but precise and elegant. Beigel has made a significant contribution to the pan-European architectural discourse of the present and is a valuable force in making connections between academic reflection and the practice of architecture."
