Taylor Morrison's Q1 2026 performance reflects a strategic intent to prioritize customer conviction over transactional coercion, emphasizing a mindset of winning hearts and minds rather than competing solely on price.

The National Jurist's preLaw Magazine recently released its ranking of the best law buildings, highlighting not just the way the schools look, but the way they support how students study, collaborate, and train for their future careers.

The CIOs I most want to work with are the ones who haven't abandoned either role. They're genuinely curious about how the infrastructure works, not just what it delivers.

The refurbishment project is characterized by a dual stylistic code, which allows for a harmonious blend of modern and traditional elements within the apartment's design.

In 1962, the architect Buckminster Fuller envisioned a floating city that would free humanity from its dependence on the Earth. The speculative project consisted of enormous geodesic spheres that would naturally levitate in air warmed by the sun and be anchored to mountaintops.

When you design your home with intentionality, you are essentially 'hard-coding' healthy behaviors into your daily rhythm. Health outcomes are the result of thousands of micro-decisions—so in his own home, he prioritized spaces like the kitchen, whose open layout makes cooking a pleasure, and the gym, centrally located.

The building, with its discreet facade and lack of expressive gestures, explicitly conveys the intention of creating an austere, silent, contemplative space; with the minimum necessary elements.

A couple of years ago, really well-prepared Wright properties sold very quickly. There were historically low interest rates and a lot of liquidity, even in the luxury market. Now the tides are shifting, and a post-pandemic frenzy for Wright designs has softened.

The architectural approach emphasizes simplicity, durability, and contextual integration, with brick as the primary material for its structural capacity and long-term performance.

Wright created a sculptural masterpiece, but he was pushing the boundaries of residential construction. He didn't put enough reinforcing steel in the cantilevers of the house over the waterfall, so as soon as they removed the formwork, the house started to sag. Wright was always assuring the Kaufmanns it was natural, but it was the house failing.

Gropius, who from 1919 to 1928 directed the Bauhaus in Weimar and Dessau, designed the house in 1921-22 for lawyer Fritz Otte. The property is considered a dramatic evolution of Gropius's earlier seminal Haus Sommerfeld, which was also located in Berlin, but destroyed in World War II. The Bauhaus founder embraced a forward-looking approach with an unadorned, sharp-edged structure that rejected the heaviness of 19th-century historicism.

Designed by noted residential architect Roland E. Coate, the home was built in 1926 for Annie Wilson, daughter of pioneering Southern California businessman and politician Benjamin Wilson, for whom Mt. Wilson is named. The gently sloping 1-acre-plus property was once part of the vast holdings of George S. Patton, father of the famed U.S. general.

Like the chambered nautilus, its shell was a logarithmic spiral. A wall of rough sandstone and aquamarine glass cullet twisted up fifty feet to an oil-drill-stem mast from which a floating roof was hung by the stainless-steel struts of World War II biplanes. You slid in with the humid air from the ravine outside to stroll a terraced garden of pools and plants, over which suspended and carpeted pods for living and sleeping drifted like clouds.

No matter the style or scale, however, his sixth sense for the provision of creature comforts is evident throughout his work. "He just knew how to design a house for cultured living," notes Escher. It's telling that Williams opted for modernism in his own residence, yet the functionalist disposition of the rooms is balanced with richly personal details. "On one hand, it's still sort of a traditional layout in how the kitchen and back-of-house facilities are organized," says GuneWardena.

Postmodernism began as a critique of modernism's exhausted promises. By the late 1960s and early 1970s, many designers no longer treated modernism as radical or socially redemptive. Urban renewal projects accelerated the demolition of historic neighborhoods, and landmark preservation battles raised urgent questions about what the United States valued and, ultimately, protected. The loss of major civic icons, including New York's Penn Station, sharpened public awareness that progress often arrives through erasure.
