Some readers think David Chipperfield’s Liangzhu Culture Museum isn’t Chinese enough. “True, there are no hanging red lanterns to indicate ‘China’,” says El Greco, “but the lake, the bridge and the courtyard all reference Chinese architecture without being irritatingly ironic in a Post-Modern way.” Read the story and comments »
Will it last? Will it catch fire? Is it a PR stunt? Readers debate Paul Coudamy’s cardboard interior for a French advertising agency. Read the story and comments »

But we understand what Yar Rassadin means. Czech designer Maxim Velčovský’s installation for Viennese crystal brand Lobmeyr features magic lantern projections using bits of old chandeliers. Read the story and comments »
Mondrian South Beach by Marcel Wanders was designed at the height of the property boom and opens next month. “This neo-baroque revival didn’t age so well, did it?” suggests Fred. Read the story and comments »
