Beijing Olympics

I think we are going to keep hearing lots about the design side of the Beijing 2008 Olympics, enough so that I might as well create a tag for it. There are plenty of story lines ranging from the design competition, the treatment of some Western designers, the high-profile venues, the rapid development of Chinese design talent, and the response as all the world rediscovers the amazing growth in design that China is experiencing. Anyway, Dwell has a story on Sasaki's design of the high-profile venues that helps set the stage for this continuing story.
