I juryens motivering stod: "Yue Hu has developed an incredibly sensitive, long-term strategy for maintaining ancient houses and protecting the ruins of a small ancient settlement. Her design is not only intelligent, practical and caring, it is also developed to an extremely high degree of design quality and presented in a truly impressive set of drawings. It’s a truly intelligent and beautiful project that can teach us much about heritage and social cohesion."
