It's a real honour to chair the OBEL Award Jury, but also a challenge. What makes it so fascinating is the chance to step outside my own practice and engage in discussions about what's important in architecture today. Together with an inspiring group of fellow jury members, we explore emerging ideas, and see incredible projects from around the world. That kind of exchange — bringing together different perspectives and sharpening our arguments — is something I really enjoy.Nathalie de Vries, Chair of Jury & co-founder of MVRDV
