Dezeenmail #45

issue #45 24/02/10     Hello Dezeenmail readers! This has been a great month for us – this newsletter now has over 25,000 subscribers, our Twitter followers and Facebook fans have both topped 10,000 and we now have more than 35,000 Dezeenfeed subscribers. Hooray! Scroll down for discussions about designers copying themselves and big new architecture projects by Herzog & de Mueron, SANAA and Shigeru Ban. As usual, the latest Dezeenjobs and competitions are on the right.   “Is it a house?”   No, the designdummy, it’s a furniture showroom. VitraHaus by Herzog & de Meuron , photographed by Iwan Baan, to be precise. See also Julien Lanoo’s photos here. “I am super disturbed and I wanna puke”   “…but still I think the project is great.” Charlie Chan has mixed feelings about this skull-and-innards charm necklace that is stored in the body of a metal parrot. Read the story and comments » “Interesting and disgusting at the same time”   The Fake Sartorialist has become one of our favourite regular commenters. Here, he tries to come to terms with Shigeru Ban’s Centre Pompidou-Metz, which opens in May. Read the story and comments » “Read the article before saying something stupid”   Readers got all excited about this bookshelf that displays seven seminal books about power and society, because it’s very similar to another bookshelf project from a couple of years back… by the same designers. Doh! Read the story and comments » "I want rollerblades!"   Urbanizr fantasises about skating round SANAA’s new Rolex Learning Center, which is one of our most popular stories this issue. Read the story and comments » "Can plastic replace leather?"   Jean Paul Gaultier is the latest star to design plastic footwear for Brazilian brand Melissa. Read the story and comments » "Did anyone see the rabbit with the watch?"   Readers don't quite know how to take this design for a mental health clinic where the doors don't open but the walls do. Read the story and comments » “Definitely the most beautiful design I have ever seen”   Tinnebolle drools over House in Buzen, a Suppose Design Office creation that resembles a glass-roofed village. Suppose Design Office are our featured architects this week – see all our stories about them here . Read the story and comments » “I saw the same thing in Milan last year"   Yes, toon, that will have been the earlier versions of the same rugs by Richard Hutten. Honestly, designers can’t even copy themselves these days without our readers complaining! Read the story and comments » “Like the open mouth of the whale that swallowed Jonah”   Katy loves this concrete fish market in Istanbul. Others worry about the smell though. Read the story and comments » “I clicked on ‘more’ to see the model”   Many readers, like tricky_p, prefer the girl to the chair. “Looks like another case of chair-acrotomophilia to me,” says Dominique. Read the story and comments » "This design would complete my dreams"   Griffoso speaks for many readers by imagining spending time on this proposed floating spa island. Read the story and comments »   Bye for now!   Love Marcus, Rupinder, Rose and Brad, plus thanks to this month's very helpful intern Antonia.

FATJMA

Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three children, Portuguese
shepherds from Aljustrel, received apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da
Iria, near Fatima, a city 110 miles north of Lisbon. At that time,
Europe was involved in an extremely bloody war. Portugal itself was in
political turmoil, having overthrown its monarchy in 1910; the
government disbanded religious organizations soon after.

At the first appearance, Mary asked the children to return to that
spot on the thirteenth of each month for the next six months. She also
asked them to learn to read and write and to pray the rosary “to
obtain peace for the world and the end of the war.” They were to pray
for sinners and for the conversion of Russia, which had recently
overthrown Czar Nicholas II and was soon to fall under communism. Up
to 90,000 people gathered for Mary’s final apparition on October 13,
1917.

Less than two years later, Francisco died of influenza in his family
home. He was buried in the parish cemetery and then re-buried in the
Fatima basilica in 1952. Jacinta died of influenza in Lisbon, offering
her suffering for the conversion of sinners, peace in the world and
the Holy Father. She was re-buried in the Fatima basilica in 1951.
Their cousin, Lucia dos Santos, became a Carmelite nun and was still
living when Jacinta and Francisco were beatified in 2000. Sister Lucia
died in February 2005 at the age of 97. The shrine of Our Lady of
Fatima is visited by up to 20 million people a year.
