100 Best

BD Online has released their annual list of the best 100 architecture firms in the world in their last issue. And most of the starchitects didn't even make the top 100 since this list has to do more with size and income than with good architecture, if the list were to be about architecture instead of revenue, the list would be much longer, and probably piss a lot of people along the way.

The only starchitects I identified in the list are:
5 - Foster and Partners
51 - Herzog & De Meuron
71 - Grimshaw
76 - David Chipperfield Architects
83 - Coop Himmelblau

There's, of course, a lot of very well known firms. But most of them don't behave like stars or are hired because their name has become a brand.
