If you have not bought a new bike within the last decade, this story is for you. We caught up with Kraig Decker, the marketing director at Continental Ski and Bike in Duluth. We asked what's new?
"The materials they're using, they're getting a lot nicer as far as ride quality, weight," says Decker. "And also the components and features."
In shop, we find some wild bikes. Some with crazy suspension. One bike had just one arm going down to the wheel, just like what you'd find on a car. The brakes are also getting more sophisticated. Most newer bikes have disk brakes, especially the ones that go through a range of terrain.
"On a rim break, you have wet, muddy on the rim surface," says Decker. "When the brake applies, it takes a few revolutions before you wear away all the muck to have good breaking."
Tired of changing your gears by hand? How about an electronic gear shifter?
"Traditionally, for the last 100 years it's been run by cables, switching all your gears," explains Decker. "This is actually electronically done."
Decker says carbon fiber frames are gaining in popularity. The reason is they are incredibly light and strong. The dampening property of carbon fiber makes for a more forgiving ride.
With mountain bikes, it's all about suspension. We're shown an extreme example of a bike with multiple coils and shocks.
"This is for going down crazy terrain, banked corners, jumps, rocks, roots," says Decker with a smile. "Your likelihood of getting hurt on that terrain is pretty high."
Decker says that popularity of "nitche" bikes are growing the fastest.
People don't want to go out an casually ride," says Decker. "They want to have a fat bike, a road bike. They want to do something that's really different."
Fat bikes are also turning heads. Big tires for easy control in sand, snow, and ice which is perfect for extreme Northland riding. They've been around for about a decade, but interest is growing at an exponential rate. The price, however, can be big as well.
Right now, your most inexpensive fat bike is still $1,500. But, Decker says he thinks the price will drop in a couple years as popularity continues to grow.
And that road bike with the electronic shifter? It runs about $5,000. Probably not for the casual rider.
As Duluth advances its biker conscience, connecting bike trails and building new ones, you can bet you'll see more fancy bikes on the road, and on the trail, in the years to come.

6-5 freshman guard Katin Reinhardt arrived at UNLV last summer with an ample amount of fanfare and rightfully so, as the Mater Dei HS product established himself as one of the best scorers on the west coast at the high school level.
In 35 games this past season Reinhardt averaged 10.1 points, 2.5 assists and 2.0 rebounds per game, but his percentages from both the field (35.8%) and from three-point range (35.1%) left something to be desired on a team that lost to California in its NCAA tournament opener.
In theory the offseason leading up to the 2013-14 season would give Reinhardt the opportunity to further hone his skills and ultimately become a more efficient player for head coach Dave Rice.
Those improvements can still be made, but according to the West Coast Hoops Report that will happen at another school. Reinhardt has decided to transfer, with Coach Rice confirming the news late Sunday evening.
According to a source, the opportunity (or lack thereof) to be the primary ball-handler played a role in Reinhardt's decision. But even with this news and the graduation of Anthony Marshall, UNLV won't lack for options on the perimeter.
At the point Coach Rice brings in two recruits (junior college transfer Deville Smith and freshman Kendall Smith; no relation) to go along with rising sophomore Daquan Cook and freshman Dantley Walker, who returns from his LDS mission.
And at shooting guard UNLV returns Bryce Dejean-Jones (10.3 ppg, 4.4 rpg) and adds the talented Jelan Kendrick. Kendrick's had issues throughout his collegiate career, but there's no denying the fact that he's incredibly talented.
Where would Reinhardt fit into that equation were he to remain in Las Vegas? He'd definitely be in the rotation, but the expectation of playing the point may not be met given the number of options at Rice's disposal.
UNLV will have some adjustments to make leading into next season but they'll be OK, and Reinhardt will become the latest Mater Dei product to play for multiple colleges.

Chip pan fires put dampener on National Chip Week
Chip pan fires in Bradford and Leeds have put a dampener on National Chip Week - with the county's fire chiefs concerned their warnings are not getting through.
In the last three years West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service dealt with 345 chip pan fires - one of which resulted in a fatality. Furthermore, 84 people were left with injuries requiring hospital treatment and a further 69 people were injured but did not need to go to hospital.
Fire chiefs have now released a video showing what happens if people try to extinguish a chip pan fire with water.
"Carers" sentenced for fleecing 91-year-old woman of £500,000
Two "greedy" carers who defrauded an elderly Parkinson's sufferer out of more than half a million pounds have been jailed.
Wendy Bell and Amanda Carroll were sentenced with four others at Bradford Crown Court for the "cruel and heartless" fraud against 91-year-old Audrey Hammond.
When her regular carer fell ill, the victim, who suffered from Parkinson's disease, employed Wendy Bell via an agency to provide her care. Bell then took a lead role in arranging 24-hour cover, bypassing the agency to pay the wages of the "staff" recruited by herself and Carroll, directly.
The carers inflated the cost of Mrs Hammond's care to "filch" the wealthy widow out of more than £500,000.
Bell, 57, from Cullingworth, West Yorkshire, was jailed for three years and six months. Carroll, 44, of Shipley, West Yorks, was sentenced to three years and five months.
Bell's daughter, Lisa Bell, 30, Linda Mynott, 60, and Alice Barker, 59, all received suspended jail sentences.
A sixth carer, Caron Gilbert, 33, was handed a 12-month community order.
The group of carers, made up of the family and friends of Bell and Carroll, went on to charge the victim grossly inflated amounts for her care over a two-year period, charging up to £40,000 a month.
None of the women had any qualifications for looking after a person with Parkinson's disease, they did not receive any training, none had had any legal checks and none paid tax or National Insurance on their earnings.
The group's criminal activity was eventually uncovered when the community matron raised concerns when she discovered the amount of money the victim was paying for her care.
Bradford man in court on terror charges
A 27-year-old man from Bradford has appeared in court charged with offences under the Terrorism Act. Hassan Munir, who's from Heaton, did not enter a plea when he appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court charged with the dissemination of terrorist publications. He was bailed to appear at the Old Bailey next week.
Man beaten up after being lured into fake taxi
A man travelling home from Bradford ended up with terrible injuries after getting into what he thought was a taxi. Josh Ripley was trying to get back home when he was lured into the car by a woman. He was robbed and battered unconscious. Josh's mum wants to make sure non-one else falls into the same trap. There are some distressing shots of Josh's injuries in this report from Michael Billington.
Bradford man charged with dissemination of terrorist publications
A 27-year-old man from Heaton in Bradford will appear before Westminster Magistrates tomorrow charged with offences under Section 2 of the Terrorism Act 2006 – dissemination of terrorist publications. The man was arrested by the North East Counter Terrorism Unit in October following an investigation into potentially suspicious social media postings. He has been bailed to appear before Westminster Magistrates on February 12.
Appeal after woman robbed at home in Bradford
Police are appealing for information after a woman was robbed at home in Whiteways in Bradford. The 28-year-old heard a knock at her kitchen window and as she opened the door, two men pushed her into the house and demanded money and gold.
They searched the property and took a small amount of jewellery, including two gold chains and some earrings.
The victim was unhurt, but shaken by the incident.
One of the suspects is described as white and of slim build with a thin face and pointed nose.
He was wearing a black tracksuit, gloves and had a grey scarf covering the lower part of his face.
The second suspect was also white, of large build and shorter than his accomplice. He was also wearing a black tracksuit and gloves.
One of the men was also carrying a screwdriver.
This was clearly a frightening incident for the victim, who was in the house alone at the time. We would like to speak to anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the Whiteways area in the time leading up to, or shortly after the incident occurred. No vehicle was seen, so it is possible that the men made off on foot.
Grouse shooting to continue on Ilkley Moor
Grouse shooting on Ilkley Moor is to be allowed to continue until 2018 after Bradford Council's Executive Committee rejected a petition to reconsider its policy.
Predator control on the Moor will be halted though.
Campaigners from the Ban Bloodsports Ilkley Moor (BBIM) group, led by Luke Steele, argued that shooting and related management have resulted in a decreased biodiversity and breaches of the contract.
The council opted to continue the grouse shoot until the current deed expires in 2018, however end all forms of predator control, including trapping.
BBIM said they welcome the progress but says allowing shooting to continue will deplete the grouse population on the Moor.
Ban Bloodsports on Ilkley Moor (BBIM) welcomes the progression made towards ending the grouse shoot, the last of its kind in the country to take place on a public moor, in 2018. However, we raise concerns that the continuation of shooting itself will result in the depletion of the red grouse population of Ilkley Moor and fails to address conflicts with moor users.
Ban Bloodsports on Ilkley Moor is a coalition of campaigners across West Yorkshire seeking an end to grouse shooting on Ilkley Moor. BBIM represents the interests of wildlife and the rights of walkers through peaceful protests, education, lobbying and lawful direct action.
Grouse shooting ban to be considered by council
A ban on grouse shooting on one of Yorkshire's most famous moorlands could be decided this week.
Campaigners want to ban guns on Ilkley Moor and will present a petition to Bradford council. But those who organise the shoots say it is a good way of manging the countryside.
George Galloway takes to the streets to back the Big Sell
George Galloway will be taking to the streets this weekend to sell The Big Issue in the North. The MP for Bradford West is one of a host of politicians, celebrities and business people from across the region who will be selling the magazine alongside regular vendors. It's part of the Big Sell, a scheme to challenge perceptions of homelessness and poverty.
We're delighted that so many people have shown their support to The Big Issue in the North and its vendors by getting involved with the Big Sell. Spending an hour with a vendor will give people a real insight into how it feels to sell The Big Issue in the North. Alongside this we hope it will keep the needs of people selling the magazine in the public eye and boost sales for vendors at a traditionally quiet time of year. Once the hustle and bustle of Christmas settles down and the January sales come to an end our towns and cities become quiet and, for our vendors, can be lonely places. Although the sales and crowds are gone, they are still working hard to earn an income - selling The Big Issue in the North magazine
Commuter chaos as safety checks disrupt trains
Safety checks on routes around Leeds have caused several train services to be cancelled or changes, throwing commuters' travel plans into disarray.
Checks on the line near Menston meant no trains could run between Leeds and Ilkley, meaning services between Skipton and Bradford were also affected.
CANCELLED: Due to safety checks being made 08:25 #BradfordForsterSquare to #Leeds due 08:49 will be cancelled

TORONTO -- A former University of Manitoba educator was slapped with two new charges Wednesday in an ongoing child pornography investigation.
Benjamin Levin -- a University of Toronto professor who was also on Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne's transition team as she took office earlier this year -- now faces a total of seven charges.
The new charges were laid as the 61-year-old appeared in a Toronto court for a bail hearing Wednesday.
After a full day of arguments, the Winnipeg native was granted bail, with a long list of conditions. None of the charges have been proven and Levin is presumed innocent.
His lawyers have said Levin has his family's support and plans to "vigorously" fight the allegations against him.
"The Crown's position is that he should not have been released, he was released," lawyer Clayton Ruby said outside the courthouse.
The latest charges against Levin are one count of possessing child pornography and one count of accessing child pornography.
"It's a result of the evidence that was seized," Det. Const. Janelle Blackadar told The Canadian Press.
"There was an initial forensics examination that was done on digital data."
Levin served as Manitoba's deputy minister of advanced education and deputy minister of education, training and youth between 1999 and 2002. Prior to that he was the dean of continuing education at the University of Manitoba from 1996 to 1999.
He was arrested on Monday and initially charged with two counts of distributing child pornography and one count each of making child pornography, counselling to commit an indictable offence and arrangement of a sexual offence against a child under 16.
The charge against Levin that deals with the making of child pornography is in relation to alleged "written texts," said Blackadar.
"Written texts, so to speak, that is a graphic depiction of a sexual encounter between an adult and children," she said. "The graphic depiction of that is consistent with the criminal code definition of child pornography."
The investigation, which led to Levin's arrest, began in the middle of last year.
Officials in Toronto were then contacted by authorities in New Zealand and later police in London, Ont., Blackadar said.
"We decided we would link our evidence together," she said. "We're still gathering some intelligence."
The Ontario government has confirmed Levin was a former adviser to the premier.
"I was shocked to hear about these charges through the news on Monday. Insidious crimes like these are absolutely terrifying," Wynne said in a statement.
"The safety and well-being of our children has always been my absolute priority and at no time did I have any suspicion of criminal behaviour. I am confident that the police and judicial system will address these serious allegations."
Levin was also recently involved with the Ontario government through contract research projects and guest speaking roles in his capacity as a professor -- work that has been suspended pending the outcome of the investigation.
From late 2004 to early 2007, Levin served under former Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty as deputy minister of education.
Most recently, he had been working as a professor and research chair in education and leadership at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto.
Levin's position as an academic involved in international projects raised concerns for police.
"Mr. Levin's ability to travel and his frequency of travel, that always causes some concern for us," said Blackadar.
"Being associated to education and so forth, one of the bigger priorities was (answering) did he have access to children? At this time it doesn't appear that that is the case."
Levin's case returns to court Aug. 8.

We all knew and loved him as Spock from Star Trek. Hell, I named one of my webcomic's characters after him.Nimoy never forgot about his fans, either, and how it is they who ensured his lasting popularity. It's telling that it was he who cameoed in the recent Trek films and not Shatner.Being the awesome man he was, his final words to the public (by way of twitter) were "LLAP"."Live Long and Prosper".

Alumni TalkSo I went to this animation alumni talk thing today for my school. I left feeling inspired and horrified.There were plenty great success stories that got me pumped and made me want to work harder and just animate all day. There were also a lot of failure stories which made me worried about what kind of future I might have. All these alumni were no doubt very talented, but even so, for a lot of them, finding a job was very difficult just because the animation industry is beyond competitive and your skills have to be exactly what your director wants. If they don't like your style, you won't get hired there. Of course each studio is different and it depends on what kind of TV show, or commercial, movie you work on. It was awesome being able to talk to these people and hearing about their journeys. I got to hear about some people working for FOX on Bob's Burgers, people working at ADHD (who did this video which I love), and pe

Lowe's Gains In Fourth Quarter, Fiscal YearWednesday February 26th, 2014 - 1:56PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Lowe's Companies, Inc. has reported net earnings of $306 million for the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2014, a 6.3% increase over the same period a year ago. Diluted earnings per share increased 11.5% to $0.29 from $0.26 in the fourth quarter of 2012. Sales for the fourth quarter increased 5.6% to $11.7 billion from $11 billion in the fourth quarter of 2012, and comparable sales increased 3.9%. For Lowe's fiscal year, sales were $53.4 billion, a 5.7% increase over fiscal year 2012, and comparable sales increased 4.8%. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, net earnings increased 16.7% to $2.3 billion and diluted earnings per share increased 26.6% to $2.14. "During the quarter, we delivered solid performance in core home improvement categories, balancing softer sales of seasonal gifts and holiday decorations. When extreme winter weather arrived late in the quarter, our distribution network responded quickly and efficiently to move product where it was most needed," commented Robert Niblock, Lowe's chairman, president and CEO. Lowe's provided a business outlook for its fiscal year 2014, noting that total sales are expected to increase approximately 5%, with comparable sales expected to increase approximately 4%. The company expects to open approximately 15 home improvement and five hardware stores. Lowe's operates 1,832 home improvement and hardware stores in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Statistics show that one person dies from melanoma every hour. Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer.
Megan and Ryan had been dating since college, getting ready to settle down. "When we were getting ready to buy our house and move out of our apartment, he had this mole on his right arm and he was like 'Megan this mole keeps getting weird and oozy, I think my shirt is just rubbing against it,'" said Megan Diehl.
Little did they know, that oozing was a sign of skin cancer. The then- 30 year-old Ryan was diagnosed with stage three melanoma in early 2010. He underwent surgery and began chemotherapy as a precaution.
Things were going well until fall 2011, right before they got married. Then, Ryan started having headaches and noticed a lump on his back.
"We had a great wedding and vacation and two weeks after we got back, he had it removed and it came back melanoma," said Megan.
This time, it was stage four. The melanoma had spread to his brain, causing brain lesions, and eventually leaving him paralyzed on his right side.
"We were positive most of the time. We were like you're going to beat this, you're young, it's fine," explained Megan.
However this time, he didn't beat it. Ryan passed away in May of 2012.
"We got married and he passed away within six months," said Megan. The 27-year-old widow said it's been a hard last few years, but that this experience has left her wanting to spread the word. "I really try to educate people by talking or writing and teaching them that it's not just skin cancer-- it can take your life, it's serious."
It's so serious in fact, that one person dies from melanoma every 57 minutes.
Dr. Sanjiv Agarwala, chief of oncology and hematology for St. Luke's University Health Network, said, "The best way to prevent skin cancer is if you go in the sun, which of course you can and you should, is to use sunscreen and we recommend an SPF 30 or higher."
While he admits that not all cases of skin cancer can be prevented., he says early detection is the next best thing. "The most important thing to look for is everyone has moles, or nevi, and a changing mole is important because that could be a precursor to a melanoma," explained Dr. Agarwala.
He said things to look for in moles include asymmetry, uneven borders, multiple colors, changes in shape, and any oozing or bleeding.
The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends you do a self-check every month and get looked at by a professional every year. You can even ask your primary care physician when you're there for a routine checkup. They'll either look at you or refer you to a dermatologist.
"I'm fortunate because I'm here today to talk to you about it," said Megan. She has a blog in honor of her late husband. She said it's helped her connect with others and to spread the word to about how deadly melanoma can be.
"If I can help maybe just one person, that makes me feel good," said Megan.
A reminder that this series, More than Skin Deep, is the launch of a year-long campaign by 69 News to promote sun safety. Throughout the year, we'll have information available and giveaways at many of our public appearances.

Wärtsilä signs with Princess Cruise Lines for long-term service of seven cruise ships powered by Wärtsilä 46 common-rail engines
The broad scope of services covers technical management and logistics support, spare parts for scheduled engine maintenance, workshop services, an on-board technical advisor during major overhauls, annual training of the engine room crew, continuous condition monitoring of equipment and reporting, and bi-monthly technical visits to each vessel.
"This agreement optimises the maintenance schedules for these seven vessels, and provides the customer with technical expertise at a fixed budget price. In particular, Wärtsilä's deep know-how in the field of common-rail technology was a key factor in the award of this contract," says Andy Edwards, Vice President, Strategic Accounts.
Wärtsilä is a market leader in common-rail technology for electronically-controlled low-speed marine engines. This technology provides a high degree of flexibility in engine settings to give lower fuel consumption, very low minimum running speeds, smokeless operation at all running speeds, and outstanding control of exhaust emissions. Furthermore, the integrated redundancy of the engines ensures high reliability.

North America's Radiant City: Le Corbusier's Impact on New York
Despite his status, Le Corbusier never had the opportunity to build in New York – in fact he only had one chance to build in the United States at all, completing Harvard's Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts in Cambridge in 1963. But this doesn't mean his influence isn't visible all over the Big Apple. Originally published on 6sqft as "Towers in the Park: Le Corbusier's Influence in NYC," this article takes a look at three examples where Le Corbusier's "Radiant City" ideals were transplanted to New York.
Even before taking his first trip to New York in 1935, Le Corbusier described the city as "utterly devoid of harmony." After seeing it in person, his feelings didn't soften. He wasn't impressed by the tall towers, rather stating that they were the product of an inferiority complex, and he thought the city's leaders were too timid to hire him. He wrote an opinion piece in the New York Times saying that "American skyscrapers have not attained the rank of architecture; rather, they are merely small objects such as statuettes or knick-knacks, magnified to titanic proportions." He thought the city would benefit from buildings that "don't try to outdo each other but are all identical."
Light Matters: Le Corbusier and the Trinity of Light
For his three sacred buildings, Le Corbusier has played masterfully with orientation, openings and textures to create kinetic architecture with daylight. His pilgrimage chapel at Ronchamp, the monastery of Sainte Marie de La Tourette, and the parish church of Saint-Pierre in Firminy reveal distinctive and individual approaches that each render contemplative spaces with light. In his book "Cosmos of Light: The Sacred Architecture of Le Corbusier," Henry Plummer, Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has analysed these projects with outstanding photographs taken over 40 years and brilliant writing.
Read on for more about how Le Corbusier created his cosmos of light.
CIAM 4 and the "Unanimous" Origins of Modernist Urban Planning
Held in 1933 on a ship in the Mediterranian, the fourth CIAM congress and Le Corbusier's subsequent Athens Charter (La Charte d'Athenes) are widely regarded as a defining period in Modernist urban planning, a moment when architects came to an agreement on what the future of our cities should look like. But how correct is this interpretation? Edited by Evelien van Es, Gregor Harbusch, Bruno Maurer, Muriel Perez, Kees Somer and Daniel Weiss, a significant new 480-page book, "Atlas of the Functional City - CIAM 4 and Comparative Urban Analysis" examines the congress in depth. In the following excerpt from the book's introduction, Daniel Weiss, Gregor Harbusch and Bruno Maurer examine the commonly accepted history of the congress, finding that support for the underlying principles of Modernism was perhaps not so unanimous after all.
In Conversation With Sheila O'Donnell And John Tuomey, 2015 Royal Gold Medallists
When Sheila O'Donnell and John Tuomey, who practice in partnership as O'Donnell + Tuomey, were named as this year's recipients of the RIBA Royal Gold Medal, a palpable collective satisfaction appeared to spread throughout the profession. No one could find criticism in Joseph Rykwert and Níall McLaughlin's nomination, nor the ultimate choice of the RIBA Honours Committee, to bestow the award upon the Irish team. Their astonishingly rigourous body of work, compiled and constructed over the last twenty five years, has an appeal which extends beyond Irish and British shores. A robust stock of cultural, community and educational projects, alongside family homes and social housing projects, leaves little doubt about the quality, depth and breadth of their mutual capabilities and the skill of those that they choose to collaborate with.
Read the conversation with the Gold Medallists after the break.
How a Le Corbusier Design Helped Define the Architecture of Southern California
We all know that in architecture, few things are truly original. Architects take inspiration from all around them, often taking ideas from the designs of others to reinterpret them in their own work. However, it's more rare that a single architectural element can be borrowed to define the style of an entire region. As uncovered in this article, originally published by Curbed as "Le Corbusier's Forgotten Design: SoCal's Iconic Butterfly Roof," this is exactly what happened to Le Corbusier, who – despite only completing one building in the US - still had a significant impact on the appearance of the West Coast.
Atop thousands of homes in the warm western regions of the United States are roofs that turn the traditional housetop silhouette on its head. Two panels meet in the middle of the roofline and slope upward and outward, like butterfly wings in mid-flap. This similarity gave the "butterfly roof" its name, and it is a distinct feature of post-war American residential and commercial architecture. In Hawaii, Southern California, and other sun-drenched places, the butterfly roofs made way for high windows that let in natural light. Homes topped with butterfly roofs seemed larger and more inviting.
Credit for the butterfly roof design often goes to architect William Krisel. He began building single-family homes with butterfly rooflines for the Alexander Construction Company, a father-son development team, in Palm Springs, California, in 1957. The Alexander Construction Company, mostly using Krisel's designs, built over 2,500 tract homes in the desert. These homes, and their roofs, shaped the desert community, and soon other architects and developers began building them, too—the popularity of Krisel's Palm Springs work led to commissions building over 30,000 homes in the Southland from San Diego to the San Fernando Valley.
Material Masters: Le Corbusier's Love for Concrete
To celebrate the first anniversary of our US Materials Catalog, this week ArchDaily is presenting a three-part series on "Material Masters," showing how certain materials have helped to inspire some of the world's greatest architects.
Le Corbusier's love affair with concrete, evident in a number of his nearly 75 projects, began early. Having already designed his first house, the Villa Fallet, at the age of just 17, in 1907 the young architect embarked on a series of travels throughout central Europe on a mission of artistic education. In Paris, he apprenticed at the office of Auguste Perret, a structural rationalist and pioneer of reinforced concrete, followed in 1910 by a short stint at Peter Behrens' practice in Berlin. These formative experiences initiated a life-long exploration of concrete in Le Corbusier's work.
How 'Vandalizing' a Classic Exposes the Hypocrisy of Today's Modernists
These images from artist Xavier Delory show Le Corbusier's celebrated Villa Sovoye in a shocking state of disrepair. With stones and spray paint, vandals have tragically defaced its pristine walls and windows. Don't panic: the images shown here are photoshopped. But what if they weren't? In this article originally published by Metropolis Magazine as "Modernism in Ruins: Artist "Vandalizes" a Le Corbusier Masterpiece," AJ Artemel explores how our shock and dismay at such images exposes an underlying hypocrisy in our reverence for famous modernist works, and proposes that perhaps Modernism and vandalism are more closely related than we thought.
Spotlight: Le Corbusier
"Space and light and order. Those are the things that men need just as much as they need bread or a place to sleep."
The Swiss-born architect, urban planner, designer, painter and writer Charles Edouard Jeanneret-Gris (1887-1965), better known as Le Corbusier, is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of the modernist movement in architecture. Over the course of his five-decade career, he saw work built across Europe, India, and the United States.
AR Issues: Redefining Modulor Man for a New Era of Inclusivity
ArchDaily is continuing our partnership with The Architectural Review, bringing you short introductions to the themes of the magazine's monthly editions. In this post, we take a look at AR's September 2014 issue, which includes an examination of the sometimes difficult relationship between architecture and disability. Here, AR Editor Catherine Slessor argues that we should adapt our understanding of Le Corbusier's Modulor Man to be more inclusive, asking "What happens when disability is not seen as a problem for architecture to solve, but as a potential generative impetus?"
From Vitruvius to Le Corbusier, the mathematical proportions of the human form have historically been used to shape and define architecture. Man is, essentially, the ultimate measure of all things. The famous Modulor Man was originally based on the height of the average Frenchman (1.75 metres, or 5 feet 9 inches) but was later increased to a more strapping 1.83 metres (6 feet) because of Corb's penchant for English detective novels in which (literally) upstanding characters such as policemen, were always 6 feet tall.
The Berlage Archive: Elia Zenghelis (2009)
In this 2009 lecture titled "Fabricating Ideology and Architectural Education," seminal architect, educator, and co-founder of OMA Elia Zenghelis discusses the development of ideologies that shape architectural discourse vis-a-vis architectural education. Arguing that architectural education is motivated by religious, socio-political, and economic principles, Zenghelis makes the case that the war-torn 20th century has been an era of upheaval and conflict, resulting in the loss of historical context and a confused state for artists and architects. Proposing the idea that architecture is a servant of power, and is thus intrinsically intertwined with political and societal trends, Zenghelis urges a return to a contextualized understanding of architectural history in order for contemporary architects to develop a sensitive and nuanced approach to their practice.
Discussing his relationships and collaborations with former students and colleagues Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, and Peter Eisenman, as well as the political and architectural legacy of such giants as Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe, Elia Zenghelis provides a compelling conversation about the inherent role of architecture in political discourse.

9 Architects Reflect on the Homes That Most Inspired Them
Where do you receive inspiration? Nalina Moses asked the question to nine contemporary residential architects, asking each to choose one residence that had left an impression on them. The following answers were first published on the AIA's website in the article "Homing Instinct."
When nine accomplished residential architects were asked to pick a house—any house—that has left the greatest impression on them as designers, most of their choices ran succinctly along the canon of American or European Modern architecture. Two—Alvar Aalto's Villa Mairea and Pierre Chareau's La Maison de Verre—were even tapped twice.
If the houses these designers chose weren't surprising, the reasons they chose them were. Rather than groundbreaking style or technologies, what they cited were the moments of comfort, excitement, and refinement they offered: the restful proportions of a bedroom, the feel of a crafted wood handrail, an ocean view unfolding beyond an outdoor stair.
The Eileen Gray Movie: E1027, Insidious Chauvinism, and "The Price of Desire"
In a public interview, director Mary McGuckian speaks with Shane O'Toole of DoCoMoMo Ireland about her soon-to-be-released film, "The Price of Desire," a biopic about the influential Irish modernist Eileen Gray – narrated from the perspective of Le Corbusier, no less. McGuckian explains how the film and the extensive research behind it went far beyond the usual remit of a biopic. Indeed, not only did it spawn an accompanying documentary ("Gray Matters", directed by Marco Orsini) and book, it even played a pivotal role in the restoration of E1027, Gray's seminal house design, to a point where it was possible to film on location.
McGuckian explains how the film deals with "the universal female experience, particularly for creative women… the lifetime experience of Eileen Gray was a combination of the time she lived in, the personality she was, and for want of a better expression, insidious chauvinism." The film casts Le Corbusier as Gray's rival, who defaced E1027 with his infamous murals, but also uses a little cinematic license to present him as the admirer who tells "the story, from his point of view, of how Eileen Gray came to be the most important, inspirational and innovative architect of their generation, and gives her back the right to be recognized for that work."
