Both shots were taken with 50mm lenses: this one with a Leica Summilux Asph. f/1.4, the other one with the Sony GM f/1.2. The images differ slightly in terms of crop, angle, and time of day. It's quite interesting to observe how distinct the rendering can be between the two lenses... Would be glad to read which one you like more in the comments!
on a hot summer evening in palma's parque de general riera, the sun is sinking slowly, casting long shadows over the scattered patches of greenery. here, in the heart of the park, where runners and bikers pause, and children weave through the air with their laughter, small water fountains like these stand silently â like birds gathered at a watering hole. their metallic surface catches the last rays of the day, reflecting the energy and thirst of the park-goers. it's a simple design, almost like a sparrow leaning forward to take a drink, serving as a humble reminder of life's basic needs amidst the cityâs chaos.

Up we go, This staircase at the Filmhochschule München caught my eye because of how clean and direct it is. No decoration, no drama — just a clear structure that works. The black railing lines up perfectly with the white wall behind it, and that one little lamp on the left adds a nice bit of balance. It’s everyday architecture, but when the light hits right, it really stands out.
En este diminuto mundo mío
una habitación y una silla bastan.
Algunos recuerdos cuelgan de una alcayata;
los muevo de lugar, más nunca están en calma.
Me siento a esperar y me pregunto
si ya habrán adelgazado las paredes
de tanto contemplarlas.

Deze woning uit 1933 is ontworpen door de architecten Meerman en Van der Pijl en gebouwd in de geest van de Nieuwe Zakelijkheid. Het pand vormt een geheel met het naastgelegen gebouw van de Nijmeegse Radio Centrale. De strakke lijnen, functionele vormgeving en helder kleurgebruik zijn kenmerkend voor deze stroming binnen het modernisme.

🇬🇧 Modernist House in the Style of Nieuwe Zakelijkheid – Meerman & Van der Pijl (1933)
This 1933 house was designed by Dutch architects Meerman and Van der Pijl, following the principles of Nieuwe Zakelijkheid (New Objectivity). It was built together with the adjacent building of the Nijmegen Radio Centrale. The design reflects the movement’s focus on clean lines, functional form, and restrained color — all hallmarks of early modernist architecture.
Along the rugged Sonoma Coast, the Sea Ranch Lodge glows warmly under the rising moon, its cedar siding and angular lines blending seamlessly with wind-shaped cypress and ocean air. Designed in the 1960s by architect Charles Moore and the MLTW firm, Sea Ranch redefined modernism with its quiet harmony between architecture and landscape. The path leading through native shrubs creates a sense of discovery—an approach that mirrors the community’s ethos of living gently on the land. As twilight deepens, light spills from within, echoing the enduring spirit of this Northern California masterpiece of restraint, reflection, and natural beauty.
Through a perfectly aligned window frame, The Sea Ranch reveals its philosophy in a single view: structure and landscape as one seamless composition. The weathered cedar siding, aged to silvery gray, contrasts against the vivid greens of coastal vegetation and the deep blue of the Pacific beyond. Morning light glances across the façade, tracing the precise geometry of the architecture—a quiet choreography of form, texture, and light that defines The Sea Ranch’s timeless appeal.
This framing device, likely intentional in design, captures the community’s original vision articulated by architects Charles Moore, William Turnbull Jr., Donlyn Lyndon, and landscape architect Lawrence Halprin. The open window becomes both a literal and conceptual aperture, focusing attention on the natural environment while grounding the built form within it. The wild grasses and native shrubs flow to the edge of the structure, reinforcing the principle of “living lightly on the land.”
The scene is at once intimate and expansive—an invitation to pause and see how architecture can amplify, rather than dominate, its surroundings.
Framed by weathered cedar, this Sea Ranch view exemplifies the community’s defining ethos: minimalist modernism shaped by the Northern California coast’s raw beauty.

The Sea Ranch Lodge opens to the Pacific in a way that feels both designed and inevitable. Through a clean-lined doorway, the ocean glows—an endless horizon framed by cedar walls, sunlight, and silence. Every element of this view speaks to the Sea Ranch philosophy: architecture that doesn’t compete with nature but completes it. The deck’s wood grain carries the touch of wind and salt, its texture harmonizing with the land’s muted palette of browns, blues, and silvers.
The Adirondack chairs stand ready for quiet contemplation, perfectly aligned with the rhythm of the waves below. It’s a scene of simplicity and reverence—an intersection where built space becomes a lens for the natural world. The afternoon light spills across the boards, elongating shadows and reminding you that even the most minimal forms can feel deeply human when set against the vastness of the sea.
Standing here, the hum of the ocean becomes part of the architecture itself. The balance of light, line, and landscape feels like a meditation on presence—one that invites you to exhale and simply look west.
