In an interview with Dezeeen at this year’s Venice Architecture Biennale, Foster described the rise of touchscreens in cars as “dangerous” and predicted a shift back to analogue controls.
“The touchscreen – literally, ergonomically – has become almost a reflex,” he said.
“It’s become a way of being, in terms of the screen that I’m holding in my hand like everybody else, and it’s been, almost mindlessly, applied to the automobile.”
This week’s newsletter also featured Google’s updated logo, a tiny house converted from a wind turbine and an opinion piece on architecture’s role in violence against women and girls.
