设计的世界

At the other end of the spectrum of architectural innovation is this wildhouse design that uses whole ears of corn as its siding.
在科技设计的对立面,建筑设计中最新的成就是这幢用玉米穗做护墙板的屋子。

And speaking of wild, there is nothing more out there than innovative tree house designs—especially when they do without floor supports of any kind!
而说到自然,没有比这三幢屋子的设计更接近自然的了,它们没有地面,也没有屋角的支撑。

Of course, all eyes were on London this week—thanks to the Olympics—and the city has used design to ensure there is plenty to see. One of the more whimsical and unusual objects is agiant lion sculpture made from scaffolding.
当然,得益于奥运会的举办,本周以来所有的人都聚焦在伦敦。当地政府采取了一个疯狂的设计模式,即在狮子雕像前搭建脚手架,以保证所有的人都能看到奥运会的相关场景。
