    One year ago readers had some funny things to say about the ring-shaped Apple Campus by Foster + Partners (above), which leads a string of circular and cylindrical designs. More

    Architects and designers' obsessions with concrete were epitomised by the projects we featured this time last year, such as this house that has concrete walls both inside and out (above). More

    This time last year we featured an array of weird and wonderful houses, including a steel-plated bunker with a drawbridge (above) and a house with wonky legs and a rooftop swimming pool (below). More

    This week last year Dezeen readers were swooning over idyllic houses in Australia, as we featured one overhanging the side of a cliff (above) and one that can be hidden behind a steel curtain (below). More

    This time last year designers were going to extreme lengths to devise and manufacture their projects, as an architecture graduate proposed hanging a skyscraper upside-down over a river (above) and another designer created stools using explosions (below). More

    Vertical gardens, secret courtyards and mist-spraying pools were in the news this time last year: a forested skyscraper was proposed for Nantes in France (above) and a foliage-clad house was completed in Brussels (below). More

    This time last year we featured projects constructed from all kinds of unusual materials, including a car made of cartilage that generates its own fuel from algae, pencils created from workshop dust and a table made from polystyrene steamed inside fabric moulds. More

    One year ago a lot of architecture and design seemed to be centred around love and sex, as we featured a coin-operated wedding machine, a mask for clamping mouths together and a couple of architectural installations that resembled parts of the female anatomy. More

    This time last year Dezeen reported on the opening of a number of new museums around the world, including a transport museum with a zig-zagging roof designed by Zaha Hadid and a wave-shaped museum of the sea by Steven Holl. More

    This time last year we revealed designs by BarberOsgerby for the London 2012 Olympic Torch, which went on to be named Design of the Year (see our interview with the designers here).

    Highlights from this time last year include a maze filled with mirrors, an electric car powered by jet engines and a hotel room that looks more like a bird's nest. More

    One year ago a proposal for 47 lodges carved into the side of a sandstone cliff in Jordan sparked a furious debate about the project's "ecological" credentials and London designer Dominic Wilcox created a provocative stylus for using a touch-screen phone in the bath. More

    This week last year two architectures students unveiled plans for a company that enables illegal migration and our most popular and controversial story was about a giant, latticed canopy by J. Mayer H. that was described as clumsy, grotesque and overbearingly monumental, as well as sublime and gutsy. More

    One year ago this week we were still presenting some of our favourite projects from Milan's annual Salone Internazionale del Mobile, which included chairs from a mist-filled showroom, a desk that cascades off the wall and a midnight meal in a darkened apartment. We also featured the zigzag-shaped chair launched there by Zaha Hadid, which no one could work out how to sit on. More
