One Japanese Dormitory That Looks Like a Slum Building (21 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       19 May 2010       16854

This is Kyoto University dormitory built almost a century ago, to be precise in 1913.Student squatters who live there pay an extremely low price: ¥2,500, about $27. Constructed at the southern edge of Kyoto University's Yoshida Campus, the dormitory was self-administered by the students who were in charge to select new applicants to live there.The building is maintained by students themselves, even though they did some little upgrades (like Ethernet cables in the corridors that lead to each room), but any of major building repairs have never been conducted and the building can't be considered safe, plus hygiene conditions are quite unsatisfactory. 
Well, you’ll see it all inside the post.

STD Propaganda of the 1930-1940 (50 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       19 May 2010       20427

It’s always difficult to fight against such “enemies” as sexually transmitted diseases and other bad habits that rule in modern society. It was even more difficult to battle against such diseases in the ‘30s and ‘40s in America. At wartime this propaganda was targeted at soldiers. And we thank Bruce LeRoy for sending us a link to great wartime vintage STD Propaganda posters that are colorful and very charismatic.

This two-story house of 400-square-meters area was built for holidays in a small town of the Mediterranean coast. A project by A-cero studio is known as Sotogrande house. Its main decorative element is white color that adds brightness and elegance to interior and exterior areas.

An unusual “cubic” structure and modern furniture look amazing. To tell you the truth, I am already in love with this beautiful building. Everything matches just perfectly!
