The Iranian design studio, Shomali Design Studio, led by Yaser and Yasin Rashid Shomali, recently designed a villas, located in a Gilan, Iran. The main idea came from the local building in this area with sloping roofs because of the rainy environment. Always we liked to see this wooden slopping roof from inside the house and the triangle shape from outside. Adding some modern sense helped us to come up with this design.
The pastel color palette, unusual degree of symmetry and Soviet-era finishings bare an uncanny resemblance to Wes Anderson’s back catalog.

Antes de se lançarem num empreendimento de alguma importância, a primeira coisa a fazer é se recolher, ligar-se ao mundo invisível, para dispor das melhores condições de ação. Quando estamos perturbados, desorientados, só podemos cometer erros, confundir as coisas ou destruí-las. E é o que frequentemente acontece: as pessoas agem precipitadamente, às cegas, e os resultados não são lá muito bons. Para agir corretamente, vocês devem antes de mais nada buscar a luz. O que aliás se aplica também no plano físico: vocês acordados à noite por um ruído, alguma coisa que caiu e quebrou, ou alguém que entrou... Se precipitarão de qualquer maneira no escuro? Não, pois sabem que é muito arriscado. A primeira coisa que fazem é acender uma lâmpada para enxergar, e só então agem. Pois bem, em qualquer situação na vida, é preciso antes de tudo acender a luz, ou seja, concentrar-se, recolher-se para saber como agir. Se não dispuserem dessa luz, vocês irão para a esquerda, para a direita, baterão em várias portas, experimentarão todos os tipos de recursos, que se revelarão ineficazes. Por isso, antes de empreender alguma coisa de importância, vocês devem concentrar seu pensamento durante alguns minutos no mundo da luz, perguntando como agir. A resposta virá na forma de uma ideia ou de um sentimento preciso, ou ainda de uma imagem simbólica. Se a resposta for clara, vocês podem ir em frente. Mas se sentirem uma hesitação, uma apreensão, algo confuso ou uma contradição, é porque seu caminho está barrado por obstáculos ou inimigos. Nesse caso, transfiram para o dia seguinte, deixem a questão de lado e esperem até que seu caminho esteja claro e desimpedido. FONTE: AÏVANHOV, Omraam Mikhaël. Regras de ouro para a vida cotidiana.

A few years ago I found this lovely record jacket at my local Goodwill signed by "M Erath." Some searching on the Internet turned up an Arizona artist named Margaret Erath and after connecting with her I was thrilled to discover that she was in fact the illustrator of that record jacket. Mrs. Erath generously agreed to write to me with some background information about her career: She graduated from Washington Irving High School and Parsons School of Design. She was a textile designer for 32 years in New York City at the Gloria Bucé Studio. Thoughout the 70's and into the 80's, Margaret Erath created fine art - for gallery exhibitions - she did produce artwork and posters for the BAFFA News and, as a member of the National League of American Pen Women, designed covers for the Penwomens NLAPW shows at CHPS in the early 80's. She also illustrated "Spanish Lesson" for Eyegate Film Strips and record jackets for Wide World Children's Records... ... but I suspect those assignments came much earlier, based on the date of the first album cover I found. Mrs. Erath kindly sent along several slides of her more recent work. Unfortunately, not having the means to scan them, I was unable to show them here. I managed to find some wonderful examples of her paintings online, as you can see. "My main goal in painting is to take JOY in the gift God has given me - This comes about in taking what the Living God has created in life and in a designed way to recapture the beauty I see to give to others - for His Glory" - Margaret Erath My Margaret Erath Flickr set.

Today's vintage children's book, A Pocketful of Cricket, is illustrated by Evaline Ness (1911-1986), one of my favorite female illustrators. A testament to Ness's skill as an illustrator, she was awarded Caldecott Honors three years in a row for All in the Morning Early (1963), A Pocketful of Cricket (1964) and Tom Tit Tot: An English Folktale (1965). She received another Caldecott Medal for Sam, Bangs and Moonshine in 1967. Evaline Ness "This boy, Jay, lived with his father and his mother in an old farmhouse in a hollow. He was six years old." "All around his house Jay could see hills. He could see hills when he stood whittling in the kitchen doorway. He could see hills when he swung on the gate in front of his house. When he climbed into the apple tree beside his house, he could see hills." "Woods covered most of the hills. Corn grew on some of them. On a far green hill, farther than Jay could see, cows ate grass in a pasture." "...The clear water rippling against his ankles cooled his feet. It washed them clean of dust. Jay wiggled his toes in the smooth brown gravel on the bottom of the creek. He picked up a small flat rock lying in the water. He turned it over. On it's underside was the print of a fern. Jay put the rock in his pocket." When Jay waded out of the creek he stood for a minute on the bank. He watched a crayfish scuttling backward among the rocks. He watched minnows darting about in the water. At his feet he saw a gray goose feather. He picked it up, smoothed it with his fingers, and put it in his pocket."

The author, Rebecca Caudill (1899-1985), penned more than 20 books for children including Tree of Freedom, a Newberry Honor winner. In her honor, the Rebecca Caudill Young Readers' Book Award, is awarded yearly. A Pocketful of Cricket By Rebecca Caudill Illustrated by Evaline Ness Henry Holt and Company, LLC
