Six British buildings, described as "purposeful yet unassuming," have been shortlisted for this year's Stirling Prize by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).
Among them are the Wraxall Yard holiday accommodation in Dorset by Clementine Blakemore Architects and Jamie Fobert Architects' overhaul of the National Portrait Gallery with Purcell (pictured above).
This week's newsletter also featured Adidas' reveal of its "football super shoe", four rotating glass pillars designed for Atlanta's High Museum of Art by designer Sabine Marcelis and the news that Ellen van Loon, a long-standing partner at the Dutch studio OMA, has stepped down.
