I begin to cover the architectural rhythm of today with a review of the Greenway, a housing project now rising in the South Bronx. It offers a chance to start a conversation, to give a place to respond to what, becoming the protagonist in writing and submit their own news about what you think is most important in terms of architecture and the built environment. Some of my own concerns are set out in the review. I, AOM interested in urban planning, urban planning, housing and social affairs, environment and health, politics and culture, the AI ​​in all the ways in which we live, in other words, not only in the way of looking at buildings or designs, although things are inseparable from the rest. The influence on the architecture of social scientists and medical experts now investigating how to actually quantify the success and failure of buildings, to establish the test criteria, a word increasingly important in terms of, for example, demands for healthy green spaces, it seems less urgent than Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster and becoming the protagonist, the last company to become the protagonist. It uses the works of architecture, and how, and who benefits from them and it does, AOT is also important, obviously, and from Colombia to Coney Island in Detroit Dubai, ways to rethink these issues have already begun to think about reforming the architecture schools and offices and beyond. The idea here is to help bring the conversation to a wide audience. I'll add my 2 cents in the forum from time to time, but I hope the site will develop a life. Selfishly, I, AOM also thinking to learn about what the PM happens to you. To throw the ball rolling, I wonder what thoughts anyone might have about the relationship between aesthetics and public service as in the case of public housing, and in terms of urban renewal and social equity, that, becoming the star of the difference between putting projects like Via Verde in the slums and the rich? The floor is open. I only joined AOVE Twitter @ Kimmelman. These igloos are bright and glorious Kakslauttanen center, Igloo Village in Finland. They do everything they can to keep warm and pampered while offering a breathtaking view of the northern sky. Each is equipped with thermal glass igloo, which keeps the view clear even in subzero temperatures. And inside, you present all the comforts, including its own sauna hot. Outdoors, husky and reindeer safaris there (they exist) and his own village of Santa Claus. Elves and all. And, of course, is that Finland is home to Nokia, wireless service is excellent. It's like a vacation in Narnia. But better and no annoying white witches. [Kakslauttanen, My modern MET]
