This week on Dezeen
This week on Dezeen our readers have been obsessing over safety, with a tirade of comments demanding handrails and balustrades for a house with holes in the walls and floors (above) and concerns for the stability of a deck chair with no back legs (below).

Meanwhile the London 2012 Olympics storm on and we’ve been running a series of movies commissioned by Nike all about designing sportswear, culminating in a talk last night with Dezeen editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs and the brand’s global creative director for the Olympics Martin Lotti.
