UN Studio, które założyli holenderscy architekci, Ben van Berkel i Caroline Bos, tworzy przestrzenie zaskakujące swą innowacyjnością. Jednak nie przekształca ono form zapożyczonych z modernizmu, lecz czerpie z bogactwa wyobraźni epoki cyfrowej. Wykorzystywane przez UN Studio, najnowsze technologie komputerowe pozwalają mu zerwać z hierachizacją oraz linearnym cyklem procesu projektowania. Wykreowana przez to biuro architektura to wynik przyjętej strategii projektowania, polegającej na stałych, powtarzających się powrotach do wybranych motywów przewodnich zw. "design models."

Flowers in the desert Sensuality and color fuse with nature The art of American painter Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) is splendid with color and laden with hidden sensuality. O'Keeffe's fame was largely earned by her large-format flower pictures that have assured her an unusual place in the annals of art, between realist and abstract. Our Basic Art Series study traces the idiosyncratic of O'Keeffe's career, and numerous illustrations document the most important periods in her lengthy life in art.
