My father kept manuals for products we hadn't owned in years, filed alphabetically in a cabinet. When I asked why, he looked at me like I'd suggested burning money. "What if we need to look something up?" The concept of finding any manual online in seconds just doesn't compute for a generation that had to rely on these paper lifelines.
Every year, I tape all the Christmas cards I receive to the interior side of my front door. As I walk past my entryway, it's nice to see the smiling faces of friends and family. Sometimes I re-read the little updates some people include. Plus, the colorful designs make the house feel a little more festive. But while most people recycle the cards when the season is over, I carefully untape each card and file them away.
When a parent dies, children feel the pain differently than surrounding adults do. A parent is the whole world to a child, so to have this bond suddenly stop forming instills a deep sadness. After all, they have bonded with their parent since they were born, and are used to exploring the big world with them. Now suddenly they have to try to figure out how to navigate moving forward without their parent. This is not easy for a child to do.
This house was meant to be a refuge, a place to return to, a space for preserving mementos and memories from distant journeys. It was with this request that the travelers approached architect Wojciech Kotecki, co-founder of BBGK Architekci, and architect Katarzyna Mach. The result was the Sadowski House, "a home of one's own": deeply personal, slightly introverted, yet open to its surroundings.
Hello everyone, this is Manuel Oliver, I am Joaquin Oliver's father. Today he should be turning 25 years old, and my wife Patricia and myself, we asked our friend Jim Acosta to make an interview, have an interview with our son because now, thanks to AI, we can bring him back. It was our idea, it was our plan, and it's still our plan. We feel that Joaquin has a lot of things to say, and as long as we have an option that allows us to bring that to you and to everyone, we will use it.
