In design and architecture, what's trendy and cool one day can be tacky and uncouth the next, and that's why it's important to always stay abreast of the latest styles, whether they be curving sculptural facades, eco-friendly planted roofs, or, the latest, covering a church in Helsinki with life-size cutouts of Nicki Minaj. It's certainly not a look that everyone can pull off, because not everyone has access to a Finnish cathedral, but if you are one of the lucky few who does you'd better jump on this trend immediately, before the luster wears off and it's replaced by something else.
