“… expanded so far beyond their roots… to the need to be all things to all people.”  Trying to cover all bases but diluting what sets the brand apart… Tightened budgets aside - get the feeling there’s a malaise about the big brands offering - and overproduction generally?

“The real role of skyscrapers is about spectacle as much as speculation.” Great critique E.

‘One Leadenhall is likely to be the last in the coming 3 years.’ ‘..limited construction capacity, high costs and “lingering uncertainty” over future office demand is casting doubt on what will actually get built.’ Given the declining design quality this may be no bad thing.

‘Vinted still has weak points to address, particularly in terms of data management transparency. Last month it was fined €2.3m for several violations against the platform's users.’ Perhaps explains why Vinted doesn’t charge sellers commission. Confirms decision to avoid.

Can someone please do the same in the fake columns of 1 Leadenhall (‘designed’ by Make) - the on site engineers have told us it’s the worst building they’ve ever worked on.

Uh-oh..Time to come up with alternative uses for city centre buildings. Such as light industry, makers spaces & markets - affiliated to the City’s liveries? + More civic spaces for health,wellness & education please. cc. City of London Shravan Joshi Policy Chairman City and Livery

“Almost double the initial 17-storey design drawn up by Farshid Moussavi.” Greed rearing its ugly head again. Fenchurch St is utterly lifeless, with its faceless buildings and disappearing shops. Are Aviva plc aware of the AI threat to diminishing workforces? 🤔 Peter Bill

Is it beyond the intelligence of man to devise a dept store concept for 21st C? Commendable as these efforts are there’s more to retail than coffee shops & florists.Having to offer space rent free is telling..and why do coworking spaces have to look like adult crèches?Rowan Moore

Bravo Rachel! 👏 We frequently can’t cross the road (off Leadenhall St) when leaving home in the mornings thanks to Lime bikes/scooters taking up the whole thoroughfare, usually in a tangled heap. #limedisease @squarehighways

Brilliant title - what sets papers apart… Shocking news though - that’s a hell of a lot of clothing given the store’s cheap price points.

“..the first skyscrapers from New York to Hong Kong, mixed-use was common.. restaurants on say the 20th floor, shopping on the 16th. We’d forgotten that in London until now.” Exactly. So many empty upper floors could become shopping destinations. Like the much-missed Ken Market.

The key problem is sizing. Many buy more than one size… plus disingenuous photography making items look very different to reality. Pointless!

“I’ve learned that true success is about crafting something genuine, something that can hold its own. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about bringing revolutionary.” Not a fan per se but these words chimed. Great look too! 🔥 BEYONCÉ in GQ Magazine
