House with the simplest of forms

On the outskirts of Leiria, Portugal architects Manuel Aires Mateus completed a project in 2010 that truly stands on its own. What looks like at first the typical silhouette of a house soon shows it to be something else entirely.
Privacy was the order of the day here as can be seen by the lack of windows and other openings. It’s stark white facade contrasts with its seemingly traditional form. The house has been designed around a three-storey central courtyard, which provides light and views for the household.
The design appears to have had a childlike beginning but this very fact shows the purity in the modern design. It is not weighed down with ornamentation of any kind. It certainly is a work of art.

Winner Selected In Greatest Hip-Hop Song (Of The VIBE Era) Tournament


Hip-hop has long been associated with the criminal lifestyle often found in the lyrics and bios of it’s biggest stars.


However, the Greatest Hip-Hop Song (Of The VIBE Era) Tournament proves that rap music is more. The fierce, fan-powered competition concluded as two classic records—Bone Thugs-N-Harmony’s “Tha Crossroads” and 2Pac’s “Dear Mama”—squared off in the final round. 


Not like the typical bravado-bulked or trap-rap tracks, both finalists represented hip-hop’s universality—Pac’s maternal celebration and Bone Thugs’ grief-filled death dedication.
There could only be one winner, though. The bracket-styled competition ended neck-and-neck, with the lightning-quick spitters from Cleveland sqeezing past Afeni’s son with 52 percent of final-round votes.


The number one seed from the Midwest Division coasted much of the tournament, pounding Da Brat’s “Funkdafied” in the first round, before handing Eminem two losses ("Lose Yourself" and "Stan"). Bone Thugs-N-Harmony barely passed Wu-Tang Clan in the final four by 3.9 percent of votes. 


“Dear Mama” was more of the Cinderella song here, though. Seated at the bottom of the West Coast division at no. 7, the Mother’s Day favorite easily knocked off fellow Pac jam "I Get Around" (2), grappled with number-one seed "Nuthin' But A G-Thang" for a tough victory and beat out Ice Cube's "Today Was A Good Day" in the elite 8. Then, "Dear Mama" zipped by OutKast's Dirty South finalist "Ms. Jackson," to advance to the finals.
