During the 1930s, many American architects were heavily influenced by European designs, especially those of the Bauhaus movement. Domestic architecture reflected this influence, and the flat, linear houses of Frank Lloyd Wright, notably Fallingwater in Mill Run, Pa., and Walter Gropius’ residence in Lincoln, Mass. are perhaps the best examples of this style. Both houses were built contemporaneously with Windshield, and the three houses use much of the same structural vocabulary, due in part to the fact that Neutra, an Austrian emigré, worked under Wright during the 1920s...

You can find whatever strand you're looking for when you need it. You don't have to page through a paper, or channel surf hoping that you'll find that piece on Taliban moderates...

The very thought of Sir Joshua Reynolds, president of the Royal Academy and the most esteemed and successful painter in Britain, gave Blake fits: Reynolds was a slopping, daubing Antichrist. "This man," Blake scrawled across...
Odeon, stated simply, is the adventure that three Brooklyn youths have one summer night and the aftermath that follows. However, like many things in life, Odeon is not that simple; the scenes are not always in a linear sequence, and interspersed among them are sidebars in which Donald (Steve J. Sandvoss ’02), the main character, addresses the audience and gives explanations...
