Designed by Nishizawa architects in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, this house and makes use of moving partitions in place of solid walls to withstand the local environment (for instance, during tropical storms), while giving ample natural lighting and ventilation. This also allows residents to embrace the natural climate and gives harmony between the building’s interior and exterior. It’s designed for three families to share, and the interior is designed to allow privacy while maintaining a pleasant shared living environment.
Today (28 August) is the birthday of the artist and designer Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898).
Burne-Jones is perhaps best known in the book world for his friendship and working relationship with William Morris. He illustrated a number of books printed at Morris’s Kelmscott Press, including what is considered to be its magnum opus, the Kelmscott Chaucer (1896), for which Burne-Jones supplied 87 woodcut illustrations.
The Chaucer took four years to produce and, with Morris’s health in decline, Burne-Jones often worked late into the night. ‘If we live to finish it’, Burne-Jones wrote, ‘it will be like a pocket cathedral’.
The Alexander Turnbull Library, Rare Books and Fine Printing Collection, holds seventeen books illustrated by Burne-Jones and a complete run of Kelmscott Press publications.

@captainneverever this event is weird because I feel like the resource needs are all scattered, but there’s not quite enough resources to really select something and go for it either? Those red card requirements are so high, so I think you kind of HAVE to do the dailies.. but then the dailies give you all different kinds of other resources to buy stuff.. hmm
Yeah. The daily card thing makes it so that you have to choose what to do – you can do 1 of 3 things but not all the things. And it’s so hard to earn orbs to get the rarity stuff for Peggy or Fury. And then four of the event characters are on the regular map so you can farm that to increase their abilities.
Great to have separate event energy. But I bet next episode will have a different colored card and the orbs will need both colors. Again, choices about what to get.
Hey look! It’s something not for Bingo! This is one of two commissions slots I offered during last years @stonytrumpshate event, completed for @tony-earthsbestdefender who asked for the Avengers Academy Boys sparring and Tony holding his own (which I was MORE than happy to fill).
