Meta Launches World's Most Advanced AI Glasses

Dear PA reader,

Design is shifting in ways both subtle and spectacular. Meta and Ray-Ban have released smart glasses that bring AI into daily life, while new Grasshopper plugins give architects sharper tools for digital documentation and modeling.

Prague’s proposed Top Tower won’t turn heads for its height alone. People will more likely gawk at the equally massive shipwreck leaning against the building’s side.

In Qatar, Lusail City still stands as the legacy of the FIFA World Cup, a reminder of how global events can reshape entire urban landscapes.

Across Europe and Asia, iconic castles that once embodied defense and authority still stand, while today’s Champions League stadiums show what we now choose to monumentalize: passion, performance, and the shared energy of being part of something larger than ourselves.
