Today's #FunFactFriday is a post on architectural history. Did you know that architecture was an Olympic sport? The Olympic Stadium was designed by Jan Wils in 1928 games earned and won the Olympic gold in architecture. "During the first four decades of the modern Olympic Games, 151 medals were awarded for music, painting, sculpture, literature, and architecture. Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who revived the modern games and founded the International Olympic Committee, considered art an essential part of the competition. The one caveat: every submission had to be sports-related." Reference: ArchDaily #architecture #design #funfacts
