		The prize forces instant judgments, and generates instant fame and column inches (and I don't mean Ionic or Corinthian) for the winner.
		What the Stirling prize does is put architecture into the "new rock'n'roll" camp, to nip and tuck it into the fashion world, to wash it on a tide of never-ending champagne, finger food and gossip into the groomed and polished clutches of the PR and marketing industry.
		Prizes have a tendency to be sensational, transitory, feel-good-for-the-moment things that, like a dry martini, a cigarette or a line of cocaine, offer an instant boost to jaded systems.

		On the face of it, the quality of the shortlist for the Stirling Prize, which marks its 10th year on Saturday with a televised ceremony in Edinburgh, suggests that contemporary architecture in Britain is in rude good health.
		The real problem faced by the Stirling Prize since its launch in 1996 has been its failure to come up with a coherent sense of what the award is for, and then to stick with it.
		Stirling was fascinated by the stronger architectural flavours of the not so distant past.

	Stirling
		James Stirling, 1926-1992, of Great Britain was one of that country's best-known architects particularly since his 1963 project at Leicester University, the engineering building.
		Udo Kulterman, writing in the same publication, said "Stirling's concept of contemporary architecture is concerned with the humanization of the environment.
		Originality within this tradition is Stirling's distinction: in the old "modern times," 45 degree angles in plan and section; today, startling juxtapositions and transpositions of clearly classical and 19th century references.

		It has to be said, and this is the inevitable drawback of such prizes, that it is almost impossible to decide a winner in such a raft of schemes of varied scale and size, as constitutes the Stirling Prize.
		It cannot be likened to the Turner Prize (or only in hype); nor can any comparisons be drawn with literary awards, such as the Booker Prize and the Whitbread.
		Accordingly, the other short-listed entries for the Stirling Prize, despite obvious distinction, fall into disarray in terms of scale and cohesion.

		Just when we were all supposed to love modern buildings, just as the Stirling prepared to celebrate its 10th anniversary, the ghost of the 1980s seemed to rear its head.
		Part of the reason for that growing maturity is the Stirling Prize.
