Ceramic factories mark the transition from manual knowledge to serial production, expanding its scale without entirely severing its material origins. Scattered across different territories, these structures record the relationship between technique, landscape, and time.
'SubWave,' created by Ryan Webber, Gwen Goins, and Rafia Santana, draws from the rhythms of the East River, including waves synchronized with the passing subway, revealing forgotten histories along the shoreline.

After we bought the palazzo, we lay on the floor in the music room to look at the details in the ceilings-and to understand what we just bought. That spirit of curiosity has guided curatorial decisions, as they placed artworks in conversation with ornate interiors.
The renovation project by Mawi Design reconsiders these in-between areas as integral components of the learning environment, reorganizing the campus around movement, interaction, and informal use.
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.
A slender white form hovers above the fields on minimal supports, as if a thin wing had just been lifted by the wind. "Floating" describes both a structural condition - a thin roof suspended above the ground - and a quality of time in this place, where mist drifts, light shifts, and one pauses briefly on the mountain, as in a fleeting moment of respite.
A circular concrete ring forms a defined boundary, incorporating a landing and three steps that lead into a contained field of refined sand. At the center of this ring rises a tall cone clad in polished mirrored steel. The composition establishes a clear geometric contrast between the horizontal plane of sand and the vertical reflective surface.
