Saw this poster in a random book store in Tokyo today. By Ib Antoni (1929-1973), the "national illustrator of Denmark". https://hell.twtr.plus/media/6107acd9d036da0f08aef36b8f8464f5b8485dac14d36bc02f59b47150b0f604.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/5d3b4b1f9d34c801dd9d868cc9e01e767b93b8f815c810978a1a86877804ea3f.file
i looked at apartment prices in Norman occupied 12th century England for fun and started crying https://hell.twtr.plus/media/1e2dd4b6f4461ed59fe24dc8899af67c1ba0df440289a9745bb7e03bdb9f7245.file
RT @CharlestonArchi@twitter.com: Of course by "historic" they mean traditional. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/3792a3868b1209774898a8ead594629853e4f12ead1ac3fb5b97dac92748da67.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/861bd6ad38aefb558bc0fc2d22bc91a35d9c0b14ba6f9927ac6d2022e4c8f9ad.file

I would welcome this kind of democratic process. Everyday we are confronted with appalling waste of money and resources by politicians who hide behind the parliamentary processes and only shows their faces when it comes time to milk the electorate for fresh votes. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/f5d21c1eaac826f63ce1c8089b8a3c2ad17584307e6a790983e3478ba2e36e90.file
Silesian Baroque needs to be revived for individual buildings as well as entire cities. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/04a7c035f3922c70596a7630139e92b52353e66eaf3673bdccbb01c13f4dd3ea.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/589c13c96c2e985317200bb63504194831f3729cff40ebf786b3b43562176ebe.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/620ea8b43d6b1d5c177bb982b0fb5bda9c5888cf91741e0c8bb0389b62fb4dbc.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/eb0c8a52318cc5a4d15f0460baded76e81c6e3d77a5a8ffa13819597cb68fdec.file
Despite more and more stringent codes, new build apartments keep getting worse and worse indoor air, due to "recirculation systems", open kitchens (extremely dumb trend that architects and builders love to promote because it makes thing easier and cheaper for them), insulation, etc. Study from Norway (which has one of the top five strictest technical regulations in the world, so unless you live in Estonia, Finland or Denmark you are unlikely to be even near Norwegian standards) finds most new-builds fail miserably to prevent bad indoor air. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/c414efb680f5aa64aa2734ac54f7f045a8bdccf043b84bf35d720b5b185112fc.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/2bbcc9a9a7bb845e87037c1ca4ff5ae39c0710a186f29c2cad0082bbb2653e11.file
β€œHistoric buildings significantly enhance the scenicness of English cities, offering aesthetic and potential well-being benefits comparable to those provided by natural features such as forests and lakes...Previous studies have shown that spending time in more scenic areas is associated with greater happiness and health, making it important to understand how scenicness is influenced by environmental features. Urban areas, where natural features have often been replaced by buildings, are generally perceived as less scenic than rural areas. However, this research identifies historic buildings as a source of urban scenic quality." https://hell.twtr.plus/media/3792a3868b1209774898a8ead594629853e4f12ead1ac3fb5b97dac92748da67.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/861bd6ad38aefb558bc0fc2d22bc91a35d9c0b14ba6f9927ac6d2022e4c8f9ad.file
