We can help change in China ----say architects Herzog and de Meuron 我们可以帮助中国改变---建筑家Herzog雅克·赫尔佐格和de Meuron皮埃尔·德·梅隆如是说 Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron have just completed the worlds most iconic building in this decade of iconic buildings, the Olympic Stadium in Beijing, which won the inaugural Design of the Year for Architecture award from the Design Museum yesterday.
