Selb, a small and shrinking German town, at a remote spot on the Czech border, is not the most obvious place for young Spanish architects to start their career. But for the team of tallerde2 & Gutiérrez de la Fuente from Madrid, it was the perfect place. They won the Europan competition in 2006, to regenerate the inner city of Selb, and now a few years later have completed their first building there: a colorful day-care center that was recently awarded the international prize of the German architecture magazine Bauwelt. It is a building that is testament to an extraordinary project, coordinated over 2,000 kilometres between site and office.
