Singing this song ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’ style with my earphones on made me look like an idiot on the streets today. Ben Harper marry me. What ?! Who said that? Damn kids.

OK I must write about the latest buzz on every architecture forum in the world – Manhattan’s New Museum of Contemporary Art by Kazuyo Sejima & Ryue Nishizawa. I was waiting for the interview, which was bound to hit the internets :D and it did. Click on the link below to read it.
This is no news and some of you might have seen it already, but I love it so much that I’ll share it with the rest of you who haven’t. I love the music and the whole scene, it’s enchanting. Click on the picture above to view the video (QuickTime required).

Meet the extra insulated, prefabricated, said to be affordable eco house. The construction is made entirely of raw wood and other renewable resources and the front facade (above) will change with seasons. Sold to me.

This apartment just hit the market in NYC. It costs $3.6 million and I just may have to buy this baby and move out of my student room. I don’t know, I’ll think about it.

Aucario Rio Mora | Promontório Architecture
Published January 7, 2008 architecture Leave a CommentTags: ecology, public buildings
The Portuguese studio Promontório Architecture brainstormed and came up with this beautiful piece of architecture – The River Aquarium. Because my dyslectic mind constantly lacks order, I tend to love it (so much) in architecture. And this building is no exception. Located in the north of Portugal, it is there to attract tourists in order to help evolve the ecological tourism in the area. The design and the construction is meant to incorportate the biodiverse paradigm of the iberian riviera. It is embeded in the ecological park and borders the riverband or Raia.
