While working on another KUKUBURI character (Morvo), I came up with this cute little guy. He seemed so happy that I just had to name him Warai (laughter in Japanese).

I did this one in a flat tesselation manner, but musing with a draft of this piece, I found out it can be transformed in a 3-D knit-like pattern.

The somewhat mythological RAC guidelines. These intensely detailed and precise guidelines outline the new RAC identity (also by North) established in 1997.
Things I've come to know or stories I've heard:
— 250 copies were produced
— Printed four colour process with six spot colours and two varnishes
— The guidelines took one year to design and produce
— Without substantial experience in large corporate identity programmes (at the time), North simply 'winged it' throughout the identity development. Although:
— A copy of the BMW corporate design guidelines by Zintzmeyer & Lux acted as a primary design reference
— As an example of the rigour undertaken for the programme, tests of the hi-vis clothing designs were conducted by North on a hard shoulder of a highway in wet and windy, low visibility conditions

The Lowell, New York

New York, NY 10021
The Lowell's leafy neighborhood.
-----
Architect Henry S. Churchill is best known for his work in city planning, but he also took the time to design the Lowell, a luxury apartment. The Lowell was built by Leo Wise and opened in 1926. It was built as a seventeen-story apartment hotel, with a first floor restaurant and lobby, and upper floors divided into one and two bedroom suites. Its Art Deco / Modern facade is a distinguished design in brick and glazed terra cotta, which integrates the ground floor entrance with a flat, subtly detailed center section of the building and topping with a series of terraced setbacks on the upper floors.
The Upper East Side Historic District Designation Report from the 1980s described the 17-story building as utilitarian in overall conception but is enlivened by a handsome entry motif and variegated brick bonding patterns on the upper floors.
From the architecture to the service, this hotel today reflects discreet aristocratic and understated European elegance. With its significant 1920's exterior architecture, The Lowell Hotel is integral to the character of the Upper East Side Historic District.
Fouad Chartouni and his brother Nabil own the Lowell. They are Lebanese real estate investors and developers. Fouad Chartouni is president of Kensico Properties, a real-estate holding company in New York. He graduated from the American University of Beirut and received a master's degree in business from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a doctorate in economics from Columbia University. His father is a real-estate developer in Beirut.
The Chartouni's bought the 130-room Lowell in 1982 for $6 million. They spent 30 months and $25 million transforming it into an Art Deco extravaganza, taking their cue from its original look. The original name was kept in recognition of its rich history.
With understated European elegance and an intimate ambience, The Lowell New York is a boutique hotel offering 47 suites and 25 deluxe rooms. Each room features traditional architectural details, original art and antiques, opulent fabrics, and communication and entertainment state-of-the-art technology. Many of the suites feature private terraces as well as wood burning fireplaces.
In a 1986 New York Times article it mentions the hotels room rates were averaging $220 for a double room and $360 for a one-bedroom suite. The owner Fouad Chartouni indicated the hotel attracts a lot of elite film industry executives and CEOs from the major fashion design, publishing and financial worlds.
Celebrities like to hide out in the hotel. Madonna at one time lived in the hotel’s 1,000 square foot Manhattan Suite.
He said the hotel's occupancy has been over 80% since opening.
In 1975 the Grand Café opened at the Lowell Hotel. Its interior had Deco elegance and crystal chandeliers from Loews State theatre. By 1979 the restaurant was known as Christophers.
The Lobby is contiguous to the Post House Restaurant, the entrance of which is separated by an original 1920's door.
It was Alan Stillman With $5,000 of his own money and $5,000 borrowed from his mother, bought a bar he often visited, The Good Tavern at the corner of 63rd Street and First Avenue, and renamed it T.G.I. Friday. He sold his interest in the TGIF Fridays chain for $1 million to the Carlson Cos. in 1976. In 1977 Stillman opened the first Smith & Wollensky. In 1980 Stillman opened the Post House at the Lowell Hotel. Stillman still operates The Post House.
In 1993 Fouad Chartouni acquired the 114-room L’Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills, California for an estimated $12 million. Chartouni’s investment group, La Hotel Properties Inc., purchased the foreclosed property from Mission Viejo-based Independence One Bank of California. La Hotel Properties would invest $20 million in renovating and at one time considered changing its name to the Lowell – but did not.
In 2010 it was reported Nabil Chartouni, the Lowell Hotel owner was looking to refinance a $60 million mortgage on the 72-room hotel. RBS Greenwich Capital originated the existing 5-year $60 million mortgage in August 2005 for Chartouni’s Kensico Properties. In November 2010 HVS Capital served as exclusive financial advisor and assisted with the restructure and extension of a $60 million first mortgage for The Lowell New York.
