Old City Hall, Zagreb, Croatia,

The three council chambers were redesigned by Andrija Mutnjaković between 1968 and 1975 as part of a broader reconstruction of the historic building.

Conceived as distinct meeting halls for different municipal councils, each space features highly expressive, sculptural ceiling compositions generated through early computer-assisted and algorithmic design methods—an innovative approach for its time.

The project is regarded as one of the earliest applications of computational processes in interior architecture.

A phone lights up before the sun.Headlines arrive before breath.Wars, heat records, markets, outrage compressed into pixels. And yet, amid this acceleration,a strangely old question is returning: What does it mean to live without being torn apart inside? This is where monkhood quietly re-enters the…

From today’s Book of the Day, I have chosen this sentence for a deeper analysis: Les idées vivent, se reproduisent, se transforment, se combattent, se dévorent ; elles ont un écosystème, un climat, des crises et des morts. Ideas live, reproduce, transform, fight, and devour one another; they have an ecosystem, a climate, crises, and deaths. (La Méthode IV: Les Idées. Leur habitat, leur vie,…
