| Description |
This month’s cover story focuses on the modernist of Nova Scotia, Brian MacKay-Lyons. He has been designing and building in Canada’s ruggedly beautiful coastal landscape for more than two decades, yet few outside the country know his work. Oliver Lowenstein meets the man who, we believe, will soon get the worldwide recognition he deserves.
Another location that has yet to garner international attention is Paju Book City in South Korea. Outside Seoul, this was a faceless city ruined by war and then hastily rebuilt under the drab, utilitarian strictures of industrial expansion. Tim Abrahams visits South Korea’s Book City where a fledgling architectural identity is beginning to emerge.
We also reveal the best exhibitions, products and ideas that emerged from this year’s London Design Festival. |
