Red Bull and Prada covered the side of a modernist building in Brazil with a huge skateboard ramp, for a record-breaking descent by local skater Sandro Dias.

Commenters were thrilled by the building, with one calling it "the most hardcore thing I've ever seen" and another adding, "this is so mega and the Red Bull marketing keeps totally suckering me in".

Other stories in this week's newsletter that sparked debate include RIBA's new logotype, Sabine Marcelis' mirrored obelisk at Apple Park and an interview with congresswoman Dina Titus.
