    A spirited threesome
    deSingel in Antwerp is presenting the work of Architects De Vylder Vinck Taillieu. This powerful exhibition oscillates between Wunderkammer and declaration of intent. Instead of displaying, the exhibition questions construction: essential viewing therefore for architects, and a fascinating pinball machine for all others.

    Reconstruction – why not!?
    Reconstructing a building with new materials is at odds with one of the most important principles of modern western building conservation, namely the preservation of a physical object in its original materials as a historical source. That is why reconstruction is so controversial within heritage circles and elsewhere. During the Docomomo seminar a number of speakers discussed the theme of reconstructing modern heritage in a session entitled Reco.mo.mo. How real is imitation, how beloved is the original?

    Report from China
    The volume of reporting on the rampant growth of Chinese cities is causing a sense of China fatigue. But the country remains fascinating nonetheless. Despite the credit crunch, economic growth is still strong. Much of the attention will shift to the countryside in the coming years, and that is badly needed since China is still a largely agrarian society, writes Harry den Hartog from Shanghai.

    Merchant mentality in The Promised Land
    Where do you start when you're commissioned to design a new city in Asia or Russia? How do you deal with cultural differences, regulations and language?
