Photos by Simon MarkhofWith the help aerospace engineers at EADS, Somerset, UK-based Charge Bikes have refined and expanded their 3D-printed dropout production since we first came across them last August, as evidenced by a new vid from last week. However, German IDer Ralf Holleis does them one better with the VRZ 2 Track bicycle, developed under the VORWaeRTZ moniker. (Further details on Holleis's practice are scant; from what I can determine, he's connected to the equally mysterious designlab coburg.)

Buscando generar un “entorno alternativo” para la recientemente aprobada sede de Amazon en Seattle, NBBJ ha propuesto sustituir a un edificio de oficinas de seis pisos con tres bio-domos esféricos que contienen vida vegetal y proporcionarán un entorno más natural para los empleados de la compañía.

Though indebted to conventional artistic methodologies, the vibrant, playful works of Jorge Prado lack traditional notions of artistic autonomy, with multiple uses straddling sculpture, furniture and architecture. Over espresso and a cigarette in the kitchen of his Los Angeles home, Pardo shares with Oscar Tuazon his processes of transforming built environments into functionally fluid sites designed to facilitate a diversity of experience.

New York-based photographer Lucien Samaha (º1958, Beirut) was born to a father who wore an airline uniform. Consequently, for most of his childhood he would be flown from Beirut to Dhahran as an unaccompanied minor. He was totally coddled, fed, and entertained by the stewardesses who took personal care of him. “Flight Attendants epitomized international glamour and adventure to me.” As an adult he decided to follow his childhood dream and become a Flight Attendant.Samaha has been a photographer since high school and has obsessively documented his personal and professional life for over 40 years, producing a rich, highly autobiographical body of work, covering all aspects of daily life: training sessions, uniform fittings, in-flight fraternization, and layover breaks. These striking, intimate images will be exhibited with a variety of archival objects. The Polaroid snapshots, elegant candid portraits, and group photograph emphasize the spirit of adventure and conviviality integral to his surroundings.Lombard Freid Gallery, 518 West 19th Street, New York.
