G. H. Residence was conceived less as a house, but more as an extension and outgrowth of the limestone and aquifers of the Central Texas geography. The roof structure is configured so as to create a natural basin for the collection of rainwater, not unlike the vernal pools found in the outcroppings of Enchanted Rock. These basins harness additional natural flows through the use of photovoltaic and solar hot-water panels. The water, electricity and heat which are harvested on the roof tie into an extensive climate conditioning system which utilizes water source heat pumps and radiant loops to supply both the heating and cooling for the residence. The climate system is connected to geothermal ground loops as well as pools and water features thereby establishing a system of heat exchange which minimizes reliance on electricity or gas.
The primary formal gesture of the project inserts two long native limestone walls into the site. The walls serve as the boundary demarking domesticated space with the vegetation outbound of these walls being native while the interior spaces are more lush and tropical. The program of the residence is configured along the stone walls each of which serves as the spine for the public and private wings, respectively. The offset between the main wings establish an exterior courtyard which will serve as an extended living space for much of the year. The siting of the boundary walls and building elements was informed by the presence and preservation of three mature native oaks. The house enjoys close proximity to both Emma Long Metro Park and
West Bull Creek Preserve.

Frank Lloyd Wright simplified this oak and leather upholstered side chair that he designed in 1904 into basic rectilinear parts, but with an angled back that seems to float freely within the right angles of the chair's frame. It was perfectly suited to the reptitive and linear motions of machine construction. "Furniture," Wright explained, "takes the clean-cut, straight-line forms that the machine can render far better than would be possible by hand."
What is Modern?, a temporary exhibition on view at the Denver Art Museum through December 31, 2011, featured imaginative furniture, industrial, and graphic designs that span more than 200 years, from the early 1800s to the present day. The objects—representing a trajectory of innovative thinking and a variety of methods, materials, and concepts—explore the ways in which design has expressed the modern experience.
The Denver Art Museum, a private, non-profit museum, is known for its collection of American Indian art. Its impressive collection of more than 68,000 works includes pieces from around the world including modern and contemporary art, European and American painting and sculpture, and pre-Columbian and Spanish Colonial art. The museum was originally founded in 1893 as the Denver Artists Club. In 1918, it moved into galleries in the Denver City and County Building, and became the Denver Art Museum.
In 1971, the museum opened what is now known as the North Building, designed by Italian architect Gio Ponti and Denver-based James Sudler Associates. The seven-story structure, 210,000-square-foot building allowed the museum to display its collections under one roof for the first time. The Frederic C. Hamilton Building, designed by Studio Daniel Libeskind and Denver firm Davis Partnership Architects, opened on October 7, 2006 to accommodate the Denver Art Museum's growing collections and programs.

Oriente e mediterraneo, design e contaminazioni etniche nel Golfo di Napoli. E' lo stile fusion di Cubo Apartments, cinque appartamenti sulla Penisola Sorrentina per viaggiatori in cerca di luoghi nuovi, rifugi contemporanei in grado di trasformare una vacanza in un'esperienza affascinante. Al Cubo l'eleganza è una questione di dettagli. Architettura, arredamento, decorazioni e illuminazione rivelano una cura meticolosa nel ricercare la bellezza. Qui si respira l'atmosfera di una casa contemporanea accogliente e funzionale grazie anche a tecnologie all'avanguardia come tv con impianto dolby stereo surround, climatizzazione e illuminazione con controllo touch screen.
Spaziosi e pieni di luce, gli appartamenti Cubo rivendicano ciascuno la propria personalità con materiali, forme e colori ispirati ai cinque continenti. Si va dalle atmosfere magrebine dell'appartamento "Africa" con camera da letto e terrazzo con vista sul Vesuvio e sul Golfo di Napoli all'intimità in stile British di "America", ampio e riservato appartamento per viaggiatori dinamici e intraprendenti. Disposto su due livelli, l'appartamento "Asia" riprende la tradizione artigianale della Penisola Sorrentina con mobili in teak e legno laccato. Creato per ospitare famiglie che intendono trascorrere lunghi soggiorni in Penisola Sorrentina, "Asia" ha anche un balcone che costeggia l'intero appartamento dove rilassarsi nelle calde serate estive.
Il mare è il tema che ha ispirato l'appartamento "Europa". Dal terrazzo al piano attico il panorama è incantevole mentre negli interni le tonalità bianche e blu, gli oggetti, i tessuti e gli artworks ricordano gli ambienti di uno yacht o di una elegante casa al mare. In "Oceania" le delicate tonalità neutre fanno da cornice ad un appartamento che ha anche una piccola sala lettura con vista sul Golfo di Napoli e due terrazzini attrezzati per colazione e cene all'aperto con vista sul Vesuvio.
