We camped at the monumnet, but were not able to tour Betatakin this time. Will try to come back one day, it is very beautiful. These photos were taken from a viewpoint on the self-guided trail above the cliff dwellings.

IJburg, Amsterdam, NL

In IJmeer, a lake on Amsterdam’s eastern side, the city’s new residential district IJburg is coming into being on seven artificial islands of dredged sand. When, a few decades from now, the district is complete, 45,000 city dwellers will be living here in 18,000 dwellings. In 2001, the first building was completed on Haveneiland West. The urban design scheme for these islands (2000) is based on a grid of rectangular blocks, rectilinear streets, green strips and waterways. On Kleine Rieteiland, ‘private plots’ are being built on by private individuals who are working with an architect of their choice, without a supervisory architect and without any aesthetic control by the municipal inspectorate. On Steigereiland, too, the new city district has taken shape. The urban design scheme for Steigereiland (2001) is based on the ‘collage city’ concept, which means that each of the eight neighbourhoods has been given its own individual character as far as possible. In some of the neighbourhoods on Steigereiland, space has been reserved for floating dwellings. In other neighbourhoods, as on Kleine Rieteiland, private plots have been issued and in strips 1 and 2 this has resulted in a high degree of architectural variation. The design of the public space will provide the necessary cohesion. In October 2005, the go-ahead was given for the construction of the first dwellings on Haveneiland Oost. This marks the final part of IJburg’s first phase, comprising Steigereiland, Haveneiland and the Rieteilanden.

Patricia Urquiola and Guilio Ridolfo use Kvadrat fabrics to create a concept for BMW that exemplifies how the BMW Series 5 Gran Turismo was designed from the inside out. The projecting shapes have objects attached to them that represent the things people take for pleasure traveling. The car body and all of the components are in a color close to a skin tone, representing the "human" aspect of the car's design.

These are not going to be up in the shop for sale for a while. They are being packaged and sent off somewhere very special for review.

I flipped this around and found that my mind sometimes is a bit 'off'.

We visited Mesa Verde near Durango, Colorado and were enthralled with the history of that place.

At the Moon House ruins complex.

After giving us the Palatki ruins/rock art tour, our friends Larry and Shermane showed us some Sedona sites that most tourists never know about. The first was a short hike to a relatively small, but exceptional rock art panel. The next was a hike up a beautiful canyon to some hidden ruins high in a cliff wall and then to a massive rock art panel that ran about the length of a football field.

 

For our annual spring fling, we chose Sedona, Arizona. We spent 7 days hiking trails around Sedona and a day hiking the Grand Canyon's South Rim. The highlight of our trip was spending 4 days on the trails with Larry and Shermane who we met last year at The Citadel Ruin on Cedar Mesa. They graciously opened their home to us and showed us Sedona area sites that the average tourist would never know about.

A 'cliff' dwelling at Montezuma's Well.

I really liked this room. It was homey, comparatively speaking. The fireplace, a fourty... chair.

Kiko Mozuna, 1972

 

Anti-Dwelling Box is a deceptively simple cube articulated with large triangular openings, providing views into an interior in which a smaller cube is nested. The interior forms a mirror image of the exterior, an effect that suggests an infinite regress of forms within the house's walls. The configuration evokes the complex pictorial systems of a mandala, indicating Mozuna's interest in the symbolism of esoteric traditions within Buddhism and Shinto. The strategy of doubling and reflection evoke the architect's understanding of the cosmos - in a cryptic 1978 manifesto he declared the intention to produce a cosmological space consisting 'of various mirrored or double-mirrored images. The space can be regarded as a four dimensional space-model of the "elliptic universe" or the "nested universe".'
