Harvard is attempting to respond to this new development. (As a comparativist, I can't help but compare the poorly-lit Coolidge Hall--where the various area-studies centers are housed--and its early seventies, minimalist decor with the sumptuously appointed Center for European Studies.) In recognition of the interconnectedness of the American economies, the new Center for Latin American Studies should bring about a significant change. I read this as a subtle indicator of tectonic shifts in geopolitics...
Lighting: Excellent. Art deco table lamps provide a gentle white light, complementing pasted decor...

There are even bathrooms (really!), papered with pages of Euclid (gentlemen) or minarets, masks and medieval maidens (ladies).

Small round tables made of light oak lined the front windows on either side, a perfect sport for an intimate brunch or an intellectual rendezvous. And the aroma of freshly brewed coffee from Starbucks next door eased my tensions...
