I am a little late on the responses, but have only just found your site – shock horror! I was talking to my boss yesterday about our favourite architects; his was Gehry, but I’m not keen on him- instead I was advocating Shigeru Ban, Renzo Piano and Toyo Ito (amongst others)

and anyone who does know Eisenman, knows that he is NOT deconstructivist, that fad died in the 90’s, what he really does is move from one idea to another, but such is life.

What a bout Richard Meier? I think architects tend not to consider him because of his lack of interest upon over describing his work with words. He has one of the most ordered,functional and plastically enhance architecture. I think people just don’t look at him because he’s not really interest on creating not understandable concepts or poetic concepts, bringing words before forms.

I agree with that survey, Zaha (who ranked 1 in the most overrated) was recently One of TIME Magazine’s Top 100 Most Influential People. The most stupid people on earth was also listed.

Weird list. Bjarke is on both lists :p And also I gotto say that most people on the should have more credit list are getting tons of credit. Not like anyone chose any particular unknown architects. Most of them are as much starchitects as the overrated ones :p

P.S. @J: Anyone who claims Eisenmann isn’t a deconstructivist clearly doesn’t know his work. He (virtually) founded deconstructivism, long before Wigley and Johnson got there.
