NIALL MCLAUGHLIN GIVES ROYAL GOLD MEDAL SPEECH FOR HERMAN HERTZBERGER
FEBRUARY 2012
Niall McLaughlin nominated Herman Hertzberger as the recipient of the 2012 Royal Gold Medal. At the award ceremony in London this month Niall delivered the formal citation for Herman Hertzberger on behalf of the honours committee.
“For Hertzberger inhabitation is the key….architects should be specialists in the daily life of people. This is done not by asking people what they want but by undertaking a rational observation of what they are.”
