The British Pavilion at this years Venice Biennale promises to fuse the best of Ellis Woodman's 2008 show, a dry-as-dust overview of contemporary British housing design, with the best of MUF's 'Villa Frankenstein in 2010'and its (rather pretentious) notion of teaching us how to look more closely at the world around us. You can read all about 'A Clockwork Jerusalem' in our 26-page Biennale special starting on page 28, which includes a specially commissioned 'What Next' feature in which the pavilion's curators, FAT's Sam Jacob and Crimson's Wouter Vanstiphout, outline how the profession can build on the points they make about a uniquely British approach to planning a sustainable built environment.
