Andrew Simms - The New Materialism: better, not more

Andrew Simms - The New Materialism: better, not more | FASHION & LIFESTYLE! | Scoop.it

"The new materialism is about an economy of better, not more. It is rich in the good quality work created by providing useful services, making things that last and can be repaired many times before being recycled, allowing us to share better the surplus of stuff we already have."

Great positive article by NEF's Andrew Simms.

Oxytocin Keeps Attached Men Away from Other Women

Oxytocin Keeps Attached Men Away from Other Women | FASHION & LIFESTYLE! | Scoop.it

The "love hormone" oxytocin may help maintain romantic relationships by prompting men to keep their distance from attractive women, a new study from Germany suggests.

In the study, men in monogamous relationships who were given an oxytocinnasal spray stayed about four to six inches farther away from an attractive, woman they didn't know, compared with men in monogamous relationships who received a placebo.

L E N S C R A T C H: What does Fear look like? | FASHION & LIFESTYLE! | Scoop.it

What does Fear look like? Just for fun today, we look at a place that explores fear on a regular basis.  They have seen it all--the screams, the terror, the heart pounding moment when the unexpected changes fun into fright. This place is The Nightmares Fear Factory, in Niagara Falls, Canada. They claim that the experience is so scary, that 100,000 visitors have "chickened out".  This typology of fear is a window into human behavior that from the outside looks much more amusing than the actual reality of experiencing the terror.

Prefab Connected to the Land: House for Gudrun, Austria | FASHION & LIFESTYLE! | Scoop.it

With a tight budget, focusing on the most necessary in terms of floor space and construction was essential for this residential project in Austria. The result is a two-room-apartment of prefabricated timber elements on a concrete foundation.

A large living space, two small bedrooms and the entrance are organized around a central core containing the bathroom and technical installations. Four large openings create unique views into the surrounding landscape. According to their orientation – private or public, varying in size and position, with or without parapet, each deeply cut opening has its own characteristic.

A large window to the west offering an idyllic view of the landscape and an entrance leading to the neighbors and outdoors. Sitting on the wooden terrace, the homeowner finds peace and nature, receiving regular visits of neighbors and even those from local rabbits, foxes and deer...

Waiting the Ski season - Autumn in Le Marche: Montegallo

Montegallo, a nest of tranquillity with suggestive outline of Mt Vettore
From the top of a high hill this village, previously called Santa Maria in Lapide and “Mons Sanctae Mariae in Gallo”, dominates the enchanted kingdom of mythic Sibilla. 
The municipality of Montegallo includes 23 villages, situated at the feet of the Vettore Mount (2,476 m), the highest peak of the Sibillini Mountains. The architecture of the town is bound to the presence of the Benedictine monks, who settled in the territory before the birth of the municipal magistracies. The name Montegallo is believed to derive from the presence of Narcisio Gallo (an envoy by Charles the Great) who is believed to have founded, in the 15th century, the castle of the territory on the mount. The population moved later towards the valley, giving birth to the present Balzo, chief town of Montegallo.
Watching over this angle of paradise, in the most elevated part of the village, is the 17th century church of San Bernardino, with an antique decorated portal and interesting interiors, characterised with six monolithic columns in tuff.

What to see:

Palace Branconi with elegant facade Casa Brandani, from the 17th century are facing the streets of the centre

In Balzo:

doors and windows in carved stone enriching the oldest dwellings built among the 15th and the 16th century.  The church of Santa Maria in Pantano, once used as a station on Francisca road (crossing over the Sibillini)  Santa Maria in Lapide, unique rest of an ancient monastery of monks Farfensi are also very interesting.

Unpolluted nature of Montegallo, together with sincere hospitality of its inhabitants, introduces a visitor to harmonious serene timeless atmosphere.

Romanesque and gothic period in Le Marche

Romanesque and gothic period in Le Marche | FASHION & LIFESTYLE! | Scoop.it

The Late Medieval economic boom during the 11th and 12th centuries brought with it a renewed interest in building.
The period also saw the establishment of many new monastic orders, most notably the Franciscan, Cistercians and Camaldolese, who built abbeys and monasteries throughout the Marche.
The Romanesque style of these years was both the sum of these new influences and a harking back to distant memories of Roman architecture. Churches were built in the form of Roman basilicas with rounded arches often supported on pillars recovered from the ruins of early Roman buildings.

Many magnificent examples of Romanesque churches have survived in Marche, including :

The Pieve di San Leone and Cathedral at San Leo The Cathedral of San Ciriaco, Ancona The Church of Santa Maria di Portonovo, just south of Ancona The Church of Santa Maria a Piè di Chienti, near Macerata The Monastery of Fonte Avellana The Abbey of Chiaravalle at Fiastra Read more
