Comment on: Architype reveals plans for UK’s largest Passivhaus development
A new model for rural development? Can the "rules" of urban design be broken? So many questions, I'm sure Jonathan has good answers.
Comment on: A typology of spans
Inspirational. Brilliant.
Comment on: Manchester’s new sound
10,600 sq m, £19.4m even after rising to £26m looks exceptional value for money.
Comment on: Top 10: World's most spectacular modern churches
These churches were selected by Emporis. Not knowing who they were I thought I'd have a look and they are....The #1 provider of building data and construction projects worldwide! Says it all.
Comment on: Foster's fantastic plan isn't just an airport, it's a £50bn leap into our connected future
Foster's airport is also of course more than architecture as well. In fact it isn't architecture at all, but planning, so long decried as a profession by architects. If the UK was serious about planning (and for that matter architecture) then it might happen one day.

article 25 are clever guys keep it up.
Comment on: Stirling Prize 2012: too much Koolhaas and no Khan
Brockholes should be there. Stadium is great as a piece of engineering and planning butt not great architecture. lyrics could win it as architecture and urban design all round subtlety. Looking back at previous short lists this is not a bad crop and with at least two or three worthy potential winners

Comment on: The story of Goldibox
Please can you print site plans as a matter of course. I visited the gallery about three years ago, before the extension works. It was great then and the changing levels were particularly well handled in the original. But following the plans as it is now difficult without the wider context. It looks brilliant and what value for money. More please.
Comment on: Long House by Dan Brill Architects, Winchester
Looks as though it was almost permitted development? A very clever and attractive solution.
