Michael Garnier talks about his treehouse collection and B&B resort. It’s in Takilma, Oregon. I love this guy, he’s the John Muir (How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive) of the treehouse world. This documentary takes a while but its well worth it. Garnier and his little Jack Russell terrier are treasures. [via Boing Boing]

This series of images was taken on visits to the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California over an eight year period. I usually find this type of modern architecture sterile, but here the architect Richard Meier created spaces that are not only pleasant to be in but include interesting lines, windows, angles, curves, and textures [...]

Walking around New York the other day the reflection possibilities were too good to pass up. These were taken with the new Canon Powershot S100 which I’m quite impressed with. The 24mm angle of view is great as are many of the small ergonomic and image rendering improvements in the camera.

Terry Gross (Fresh Air) recently interviewed Kate Ascher on the topic of How The World’s Tallest Skyscrapers Work. Fascinating stuff. Kate’s book The Heights looks good. What struck me in this interview is that the world’s tallest building (at the moment), The Burj Khalifa, built in Dubai is a very modern building built in a [...]

Steve Jobs presents a new Apple campus to the Cupertino City Council. This is a wonderful example of the genius of Steve Jobs and how he’s attempting to keep Apple paying taxes in its home town of Cupertino, California. We pay taxes, the city ought to provide free wifi. Great one Steve.
