Substandard materials blamed for wind damage to Foster’s Beijing airport

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 09:57 AM PST

Dezeen Wire: an architect from one of the firms that collaborated with Foster + Partners on the design of the Beijing Capital International Airport Terminal in China says that recent damage caused by wind had nothing to do with the quality of the design – The Washington Post

Shao Weiping of the Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute said he was “very confident that the design was perfect and involved no mistakes or flaws." China state media say passengers reported seeing roofing material from Terminal 3 blowing across the runway and through the three-year-old terminal building. It is the second time in a year that wind has reportedly affected the structure.

“Can we now say that OMA has grown up?” – Hugh Pearman

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 08:08 AM PST

Dezeen Wire: architecture critic Hugh Pearman has expressed admiration for the mature and understated nature of Dutch practice OMA‘s design for a new headquarters for merchant bank Rothschild on a sensitive site near the Bank of England – Hugh Pearman

Pearman suggests that it is “a miracle that a 'foreign' firm of architects with a reputation for the outrageous won the 2005 competition to redevelop the site,” but describes their approach to this project as “well-mannered, corporate, svelte, positively self-effacing.”

The area’s history demanded a low-key approach and Pearman adds that, although he wishes the building “wasn't on quite such good behaviour,” its response to the brief “makes the right urbanistic moves and is enlivened by some flashes of wit.”
