Asymptote's Strata Tower in Abu Dhabi got the most comments this week. "Finally architecture has entered the 21st Century," says V-Ster. JMZ takes the opposite view, saying: "Architecture has entered dark deep season-long Twin Peaks episode."
"Oh look! My 21st century computer just vomitted out some soulless corporate luxury residential schtick for a Gulf State!" adds our new friend Fling. Read the story and the comments here »

A new reader called Fling is responsible for some of the best comments we've had. Here's what he (or she) has to say about Marcel Wanders' new Chubby chair (above):

What makes me different from any of the other plastic chairs out there? Where will I go when I die?' All good questions." Read the story and comments »

That's it for this week, enjoy the sunshine!
Love Marcus, Rupinder and Rose
