Show notes

This week we’re heading to Venice, Italy to talk about Tomorrow's Build's latest video "The Failed Plan to Save Venice From Flooding". Oh, and there's a twist... a $7BN flood defence system isn't enough to keep the iconic city afloat. Of course, we're chatting about the MOSE system that's defending one of earth's most picturesque places.


Later in the episode, we look at Uruguay’s new tree-covered tower from MVRDV (yes, the same people that brought us the infamous Marble Arch Mound!). Plus, we follow up on last weeks news from London - FRESH widespread opposition to the new Liverpool Street station plans, from Herzog & de Meuron and Sellar.


We end the show with two cheeky emails from Chris Munch (Texas, USA) and the legendary Arthur Caspelherr.
