We finally got hold of a good set of images of Herzog & de Meuron's CaixaForum Madrid, courtesy of photographer Duccio Malagamba. It was worth the wait. Read the story and comments »

No dissent here: everyone loves BarberOsgerby's IRIS tables for Established & Sons. Read the story and comments »

zha_dubai-opera-house_sq.jpg

Zaha Hadid always gets readers going. Our exclusive on her dune-shaped Dubai Opera House has attracted a postbag full of the usual reactions, although with added references to camels. Read the story and comments »

wrathsq.jpg

Seven Deadly Glasses by Kacper Hamilton has been one of our most commented-upon stories of the last few weeks. As usual, Fling's comment is the funniest. Read the story and comments »

kikis-dream-rvb.jpg

Designers Joost van Bleiswijk and Kiki van Eijk presented a little book about their work at their show in Milan this year, and we have five signed copies of About Joost & Kiki to give away to Dezeen readers. Enter the competition »

We're not quite sure why, but this Philippe Starck collection for Driade has caused one hell of a debate. Which starts of in English, then switches to French... bizarre. Read the story and comments »

squarevue-hotel-3.jpg

Jean Nouvel can usually do no wrong - but his competition-winning Tour Signal is attracting some gripes. Read the story and comments »

him-and-her-both-back.jpg

Fling has spotted an error with Fabio Novembre's Him and Her chairs for Casamania "I checked this out in a mirror at home," he says. "If I bend over like that, there is some dangle-age." Read the story and comments »

squ2butterfly-table-and-ben.jpg

Butterfly Table by based upon has got some readers a bit worked up. Because it uses real butterflies. Read the story and comments »

ora-unica-squ1.jpg

Dezeen readers love stories about watches - except Fling, who feels Ora Unica by Denis Guidone isn't as good as his old Mickey Mouse watch. Read the story and comments »

09sq.jpg

A football stadium by Slovenian architects Ofis gets a big thumbs up. Read the story and comments »

accelecrppdrate_side.jpg

Acceleration Sofa by Philip Grass has stirred up a debate over the validity of objects that exist only in software. Although to be fair to Grass, "digital prototype" was our phrase, not his. Read the story and comments »

squish-wor-0004-a.jpg

Edward Sumner's beautiful photos of Junya Ishigami Architects's Kait Workshop has got everyone wondering what it's like to work in a greenhouse. Luckily, Sumner himself has responded with details of how they keep the building cool. Read the story and comments »

Bye for now

 

 

See you soon!

Love Marcus, Rupinder and Rose
