Here’s a pic of what Wood Marsh are up to in Shanghai for the upcoming expo. The government PR article it came in on makes nary a mention of the architects, as SA PRESIDENT pointed out in Twitterland. As Stuart Harrison said on the Architects radio show on Tuesday (after a visit), this one refers strongly to Wood Marsh’s 1990s ACCA building in Melbourne.

looks nothing like acca, except for maybe the cladding/colour.
proves that some people don’t know shite from clay.
well done.

if it is like ACCA it will have a huge mistake right above the front door.

ACMI felt lame – but ayers rock with a disco inside has grown on me over time.
