Tonight, I’m spending some time cleaning my books, and getting all of the press releases out of my in box. One I received is for a new magazine about sexuality and excess called Design Book Magazine. This is a bit like Wallpaper but slightly raunchier and not as good… but still very interesting. What’s really great about it? A higher concentration of women in bikinis in their architecture spreads. I do like to see how people interact in these spaces!

After only being open a few days, the People’s Design Award created and maintained by the Cooper Hewitt Design Museum has had some strange submissions. Cooper Hewitt has left the winners up to the people to decide as well as the nominees. Some of the nominated designs include Get Smart’s shoe phone, the Suzanne Sommers’ Thigh Master, windsheild wipers, and the McCain logo. Hmm.

I have very little to say about this house. When trying to come up with a reason for including it on the blog, the only thing that came to mind is: "looks cool". This is not the criteria I hoped to use when I started design crack. But what the hell… One funny thing about the house is I saw the image before I saw the location of the house and I thought to myself, " That’s so Oscar Niemeyer". Of course, the house is in Brasilia.

Ping Mag has posted an insightful account of the pachinko architecture industry leading me to believe that I will never be able to know as much as I would want about this world. I could spend a lifetime studying the accuteness of this strnge design style.

Wallpaper has created another interactive post of new modern residential architecture. This month, they feature the Holley House, a simple Miesian brick house built near Garrison, New York. The work borrows the smart use of heavy planes that ground the house in a similar way to the Barcelona Pavilion.
