Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known for their classic contemporary look, the AD100 interior design/architectural firm Ashe Leandro’s debut publication is an inspiring look book of interiors they have created in syncopation with materials that they are drawn to. For Ashe and Leandro, creativity is a way of life that is reflected in everything they design. They have built a star-studded portfolio (clients include Liev Schreiber, Seth Meyers, Naomi Watts, and Rashid Johnson) with their fresh approach to unfussy, high-design spaces. Their interiors favor a quiet beauty, based on simple shapes, asymmetrical details, and a fine patina. This luxurious book, with its cloth-covered case, features the firm’s exciting new design projects, exhibiting their fusion of America’s Southwest, Latin American, and European heritages. There are also profiles of homes in urban and country settings, from New York City, Connecticut, and East Hampton to Martha’s Vineyard, illustrating this appealing cosmopolitan/bohemian aesthetic. Through an insightful interview, the designers share their process using interiors and their furnishings to demonstrate the personal ethos of their extraordinary firm and its important contributions to the design world.

Download or read book The Portuguese in San Leandro written by Meg Rogers and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-07 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gold Rush drew the Portuguese from the Azores, sweeping them across the Atlantic Ocean and around South America's Cape Horn to the California shore. When gold failed to pan out, many Portuguese moved to the hamlet of San Leandro on the San Francisco Bay where land was reasonable and the ground fertile. Gradually the post-Gold Rush settlers joined with former Portuguese shore whalers to farm the fields of San Leandro. San Leandro became a principal landing place for newly arrived Portuguese immigrants putting down roots on small farms. A steady stream of relatives from the Azores and Hawaii poured into San Leandro's fertile foothills, and by 1911 the Portuguese comprised over two-thirds of the city's population. The early days were rough--Portuguese immigrants banded together in fraternal societies to overcome a lack of resources and to help one another navigate a strange world whose language they did not speak. Today the Portuguese Immigrant monument in Root Park's plaza commemorates the journey of Portuguese settlers who left everything behind to start a new life in the new world.

Download or read book Leandro Valencia Locsin written by Jean-Claude Girard and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largely unknown oeuvre of the Philippine architect Leandro V. Locsin (1928-1994) embodies the search for identity in the built environment. Having completed his studies, Locsin opened his practice in 1953 in the capital Manila which, after the aerial attacks by the Allied forces for the liberation of the Philippines from Japanese occupation, had been almost completely destroyed. The reconstruction, as well as technical innovations and favorable political and economic conditions, made it possible for him to design a wide range and large number of projects, including hotels, commercial buildings, churches, cultural venues, and public buildings. His work combines inspiration from modernism with local traditions and comprises a total of 245 projects, of which more than half were completed. The book presents a selection of the most important buildings and projects.

Download or read book The Master of the Literatura De Cordel Leandro Gomes De Barros written by Mark J. Curran and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Master of the 'Literatura de Cordel' - Leandro Gomes de Barros. A Bilingual Anthology of Selected Works" is Professor Curran's return to research and writing from his first days in Brazil in 1966-1967 on a Fulbright Hays Fellowship for Ph.D. dissertation work. This book treats "Cordel's" best known and arguably best poet, a translation to English of his selected works, and a commentary on his pioneering days of the "Literatura de Cordel." Among the poet's topics were the changing times, foreigners in Brazil, government-politics-and war, mothers-in-law, sugar cane rum, religion and satire, banditry, the oral poetic duel, and the long narrative poems from the European popular tradition. Curran in addition gives a synopsis of the "Literatura de Cordel" as it was in its heyday in his initial research in the 1960s. The translation was a challenge but also a great pleasure.
