Option 1

 * Article title
 * Tokujin Yoshioka


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article points out the architect’s work, but doesn’t go too much in depth. I think it would be good to research his specific projects and add more information about them on the wiki page. The profile and bibliography also could be expanded.


 * Sources
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokujin_Yoshioka#Mus%C3%A9e_d'_Orsay,_Paris,_2011
 * Books/articles:
 * Tokujin Yoshioka Design; Yoshioka, Tokujin, 1967-; Niimi, Ryū. London; New York: Phaidon 2006
 * Tokujin Yoshioka: Materialist T: Design Magazine; Alex Hawgood, New York, N.Y:New York Times Company, 2009-04-19

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Jean-Michel Frank


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article on Jean-Michel Frank has much on his life and his travels, mentioning his works only in a broad sense. Researching his projects and talking about them individually would add to the article in a meaningful manner. In addition, the wording used to describe his background in minimalism is unusual and can be phrased better.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Reza Kabul


 * Article Evaluation
 * The “Early Life and Education” section is lacking a lot of information and could include more background history. There’s also no pictures to reference him or projects.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Hollywood Regency


 * Article Evaluation
 * This wikipedia article is short and undetailed. It could benefit from examples of designers and spaces that fit the Hollywood Regency style.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Powers Auditorium


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is very brief and does not provide much detail about the interior of the theater. A short history of the building and limited information about renovations. There is nothing included that discusses the architectural features or details of the design/style. No images of the interior are used; there is only one photo of the exterior.
