SUPERRECTANGLE: Hip Hip Hooray for Bow Wow
http://superrectangle.blogspot.com/2009/09/bow-wow_29.html
Hip Hip Hooray for Bow Wow. Currently, my favorite architectural firm is Atelier Bow Wow. A young Japanese firm that specializes in small scale residential projects. In there 2006 they published a book. Their work responds to the economic climate since the Nikkei crashed in the 1990’s. Needless to say a survey or buildings leading into the economic collapses in. And US (and worldwide) were plagued by tremendous proportions and irrational exuberance. In the 80's. I won't even mention the Toren.

SUPERRECTANGLE: Caffeine To Go
http://superrectangle.blogspot.com/2009/10/caffeine-to-go.html
I love Caffeine. I wish I could add it to my OJ instead of being a slave to coffee. Have they invented this yet? Why is this not readily available? Where can I buy it? Http:/ www.xlxs.org/.

McDonald's vs The World. McDonald's is is a modern empire. They bring cheeseburgers but also economic infrastructures to their colonies.

SUPERRECTANGLE: Door Hardware Maven
http://superrectangle.blogspot.com/2011/03/door-hardware-maven.html
The most intersting and important feature on the door may be the pull. it is the element we touch and interact with it is how we feel a door - you rarely will touch the door slab. The NYT ran an article on Rhett Bulter, the NYC resident architectural hardware superstar. Check out tyhe article. T. His guy is such a dork i love it. It’s an amazing field — it incorporates design, history, material sciences. It’s a technical thing and a decorative thing at the same time". Http:/ www.nytimes.com/2010/.

SUPERRECTANGLE: Quintesential Question of Architecture
http://superrectangle.blogspot.com/2010/06/quintesential-architecture-question.html
Quintesential Question of Architecture. I always find myself thinking about Brownsville. Years ago our studio at Columbia that used brownsville to address a quintessential question about architecture. It asked to plan 2 residential blocks in New York City -which already has the perfect fundamental brownstone building block template. An almost impossible model to improve on. Not to mention the architectural detail is gorgeous. Brownstone Building Block Template / Perimeter Block Layout.
