...tile-covered base of the temple is a muddy blue-green that looks gloomier on the street than it did in Graves' delicate pastel drawings. It contains arcades on three sides, which lead to a restaurant, bookstore and several shops. It also contains a rectangular entrance portal that will eventually double as the pedestal for Raymond Kaskey's Portlandia, a female figure symbolizing the city's virtues...

...small rectangular hearing rooms on the second floor of a Central Square office building, the five-man rent control board conducts its weekly Wednesday night meetings.

At any given time on a Wednesday night those chairs are nearly full because the board almost always falls significantly behind schedule.

Rimming a long swing that sweeps a child in and out of view, shining up through two rectangular-grills to denote barracks for Woyzeck and a comrade. Monderer's lights and shadows and hellish pink sunsets need no narrative to make them shocking.

Words here do not tell, they...

...Persian cat named Micio. Except for Micio and a Japanese screen, practically everything in the living area was designed by Armani himself, who is mulling over the addition of furniture to his assorted ventures. Certainly the low couches and chairs here, all covered with satinized cotton, and the sculpted rectangular table in a favorite Armani shade of taupe, represent a strong start.
