If you’re in the business of building, you’re probably pretty eager not to have anything start going wrong with your new fancy bit of architecture until at least a few years have passed and a little wear and tear is to be expected. Otherwise, you might start getting nicknames like the one we handed out to Frank “The Leakster” Gehry on not one but two recent occasions. But such is the case over at the swanky new billion-dollar digs the Yankees now call home. Cracks have started to appear in portions of the concrete ramps, something not so good for a building that’s less than a year old. Now fingers are being pointed to try and figure out who is to blame. While the Kansas City-based mega-firm Populous was behind the design of the structure, including these now-troublesome ramps, it’s looking like the they’ll be just fine, given some of the other potential parties involved:

The ramps were built by a company accused of having links to the mob, and the concrete mix was designed and tested by a company under indictment on charges that it failed to perform some tests and falsified the results of others. But it is unclear whether work performed by either firm contributed to the deteriorating conditions of the ramps.

Update: Daniel Libeskind’s also been having some similar troubles recently in Denver.

Camilla Engman‘s upcoming book (at the printer, available for preorder!) is part of The Suitcase Series. This series presents in glorious detail the lives of artists and designers from around the world. Small and intimate, each book contains a special treasure: in this edition we have included a glassine envelope of postcards with which you can create a Camilla-inspired collage. You’ll also find a booklet of the adventures of Morran, the little Swedish dog with a big imagination. The pre-orders and first few hundred books sold will also include a two-colour art print. Each book in The Suitcase Series is a precious souvenir of a creative journey shared between the artist and you, the reader.

In addition to these goodies, I’ve also designed a luggage tag/bookmark:

Here are some of my inspiration images for the tag:
