This week on Dezeen, we explored 15 of the most interesting venues that will host the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles in 2028, including the recently opened Intuit Dome.
Among the venues on the list are the recently completed SoFi Stadium and Intuit Dome, as well as the LA84 Foundation/John C Argue Swim Stadium, which was built to host the swimming events for the 1932 Summer Olympics.

Malaysia's prime minister Anwar Ibrahim has said the country, which has numerous well-known skyscrapers, will no longer be prioritising them.
"I have emphasised the need to focus on projects that serve and respect the people," Ibrahim said. "There are already many skyscrapers, if the private sector wants to build them please do. But, the government does not make this a priority anymore."

We rounded up seven narrow townhouses in New York, many of which are considered "infill" – buildings built on previously empty sites thought too small for residential development.
As these can be half the width of normal plots, the architects in the story worked within the spatial constraints to create innovative skinny homes that make the most of their narrow sites.
