ARCHITECTURE: HEATHERWICK STUDIO: Designing the Extraordinary

The Gazebo, Berkshire
Paternoster vents, London
I at last got to see this exhibition at the Victoria & Albert Museum - until September 30, 2012.  Ground breaking designs, Thomas Heatherwick is a genius of invention [see my entry of January 12, 2012 ]... but why give such an extraordinary exhibition so little space?   Everything looks jumbled and overcrowded - it needed rooms 3 to 4 times the size - PITY!  http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/exhibitions/heatherwick-studio/
