Here are my weekly picks:

The 2018 Winter Games have arrived! If you’re a fan of a sport that has athletes rocketing down an icy track at break-neck speeds, this house is for you; it comes with its own huge luge track.
The Olympics shine a light on the world’s best athletes, but not if they stand near this pavilion. That’s because the world’s darkest building is in Pyeongchang and absorbs 99% of light.
