It had to happen eventually but Domus should be applauded for being the first major architecture magazine to put their building profiles from their latest edition into Google Earth. I would agree with Dan that while its a bit of a gimmick at the moment there is lots of potential here for the future for good access to design information, also coverage of Google earth is not the same everywhere, Aurland Norway being a case in point. Projects listed are, Mikimoto Ginza 2 by Toyo Ito, Tokyo, Japan, Aurland Lookout by T. Saunders, & T. Wilhelmsen , Norway, PalaFuksas by Fuksas, Torino, italy, Ryugyong Hotel, Pyongyang, North Korea, and Domus Magazine, Milano, Italy. I’ve added a photo from Saunders website showing the Aurland lookout as the data from Google earth in this project is so bad it doesn’t even begin to do it justice. The practise is further profiled in land + living . Go here for hyperdomus also see my post about finding architecture.
