The Guardian's architecture critic has some harsh words about London's 2012 Olympic village, which, though not at risk of becoming as defunct as other Olympic villages around the world, is still, apparently, populated with "brash totems [that] are a monument to Olympian greed." "Strip away all the festive colours and you'll find that these are actually mean-minded silos of tightly packed one-bedroom flats." [The Guardian; previously]
