Greenwich Peninsula developer Knight Dragon has come up with an ingenious plan to improve the sightliness of its development and has asked artist Conrad Shawcross to camouflage the (unsightly) chimneys of an energy centre due to open there later this autumn. Called the Optic Cloak, the 49m-high structure is being marketed as a new landmark for this part of south-east London. It got me thinking: what else could we camouflage? Here's my starter for 10 - the inevitable "will this do?" high-rises that are bound to be thrown up in this neck of the woods.
