A Little Gay History
Desire and Diversity across the
World
Parkinson
How old is the oldest chat-up line
between men? Who was the first
lesbian? Were ancient Greek men
who had sex together necessarily
gay? And what did Shakespeare
think about cross-dressing? A Little
Gay History takes objects ranging
from Ancient Egyptian papyri and
the erotic scenes on the Roman
Warren Cup to images by modern
artists including David Hockney and
Bhupen Khakhar to consider
questions such as these.

Creating Shade
Design, Construction,
Technology
Protection has always been the
most genuine function of
architecture. In the context of
global warming one of the most
needed type of protection is from
and against the sun. This necessity
has led to an impressive creative
outburst of amazing technological
developments for all kinds of roofs
without walls. These come in all
forms and sizes, in a wide variety of
materials concrete, fabrics,
fiberglass, wood or plants, to name
a few.

Masterpieces: Bungalow
Architecture + Design
Michelle Galindo
Bungalows today are single- or
one-anda- half-stories buildings
combining the ingenious spatial
solutions of apartment floor plans
with the autonomy of detached
single-family houses. And they are
back in vogue again not only among
homebuyers because they are
highly functional, eco-friendly and
easily accessible, which also makes
them a valuable investment for the
future.

Bookshops
In the era of e-books and online
shops, when the classic book trade
has come under increasing
pressure, the success of a bookshop
is by no means a foregone
conclusion. Booksellers confront
these new challenges with very
different economic strategies and
conceptual measures.

Packaging Design
Product packaging has first of all to
fulfill functional demands such as
structural stability, air-tightness or
air-permeability, information
requirements and cost
effectiveness. However, it is much
more than just a kind of container
made of glass, wood oder plastic
protecting its contents: it is also the
face of the product. Like the façade
of a building, the package gives an
impression of what lies behind it.
