The grassroots campaign Architectural Uprising already has the support of the public. The next step is securing seats in local assemblies, and one chapter in Sweden has started. They don't need to win it all, one or two seat is enough to start a serious reform of the built environment.

Neat work here from NotebookLM to make studying for the Architect First Class examination in Japan easier with well illustrated questions and answers. But note how the exam includes quite niche traditional architectural construction details and specialized terminology. In theory the architects who pass this highest national architect exam (the pass rate is only 10%) should be able to describe the correct way to design and the techniques necessary to build any traditional Japanese building starting from the early 7th century A.D. to the 21st century. Impressive.

The gorgeous 1893 Venetian style Hallwyl Museum in Stockholm with the amazing courtyard looks like it uses terracotta decorations but this is actually all genuinely carved sandstone. The owners were concerned about the many fake materials and lookalike construction so they wanted a home where everything was genuine and handmade. The palatial home was inhabited by the original owners until 1930. Today a museum.

Unexpectedly interesting long read on how a bird migration 1.6 million years ago forever altered the botany of a mountain in Hispaniola, and a terrific account of the most dedicated botanist the world has ever known, the eccentric Swedish genius Erick Ekman (1883-1931).
