Saarinen is not the only architect regularly stumping the NYT crossword crowd. Witold Rybczynski showed why it is so hard to make unforgettable architecture. Christopher Hawthorne argued that coffee-table-book culture has hurt architecture, and Rybczyniski discussed the decline of architecture magazines. Rybczynski covered one rising star in architecture and praised the contemporary architecture of Spain.
