Albert Speer's son helped design the architecture of the Beijing games. But the similarities with Berlin 1936 don't end there. Guardian | related
Didn't Sasaki Assoc. co-design the masterplan too? This article is trash.
That's the most absurd architecture article I've read in years. The National Mall, Haussmanization of Paris and everything lines up in axis, too. And what country doesn't wish to win more medals when it's the host? World Cup, US Open, F-1 races, what? The architecture commentary on Tuesday's Colbert report is less absurd that this.
until the end of time they will be making such comparisons. Unfortunately they aim to add spectacle where none lies
China is a totalitarian regieme, true. But America & the Uk must also be considered in the same boat.
