Wrighters’ Room
In 1927, Frank Lloyd Wright—having decamped to Los Angeles for a personal and professional reset in the city he once called “that far corner of the United States”—completed one of his more extraordinary commissions, an office building for the Continental Studios film company. The design was an outlandish application of his Mayan Revival style, a moody synthesis of Mesoamerican archaism and old Hollywood glamour.
The Overlooked Intelligence of Architectural B-Sides
I remember, as a kid, sitting in the passenger seat of my grandpa Lannie’s red Jeep Grand Cherokee as we approached an unremarkable intersection in my hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. His car came to a halt and he leaned over his dash, pointing across the six-lane intersection toward a strip mall kitty-corner from us. “You see that building?” he said through a smirk. Wrapped in blue-gray stucco, glass curtain wall, and metal panels, the strip mall seemed not particularly interesting from a distance.
In Praise of the Pedestrian
One of the chief joys of living in a city is walking it—not as a means of transportation, but for enlightenment. “Walking is not a sport,” wrote Frédéric Gros in A Philosophy of Walking, his elegiac manifesto to bipedal life. “When you are walking, there is only one sort of performance that counts: the brilliance of the sky, the splendor of the landscape.” The New York–based artist Alex Wolfe would agree, and add that human-made infrastructure plays an equally powerful role in orienting our lives.

Our biological clocks tell us when it’s time to eat
This could explain why people who sleep and eat out of sync with their circadian clocks are at higher risk of developing obesity, diabetes and pre-diabetes metabolic syndrome. ... WASHINGTON — The bathroom scale may show a good number but how much of that weight is fat, not muscle? New studies are adding to the evidence that the scale doesn't always...
Here's The Science On Sleep
Sleep is a naturally recurring state characterized by reduced or absent consciousness, relatively suspended sensory activity, and inactivity of nearly all voluntary muscles. It is distinguished from quiet wakefulness by a decreased ability to react to stimuli, and is more easily reversible than being in hibernation or a coma.
