In 2014, the Norwegian architecture firm MAD Arkitektur hit a wall. The architects’ edgy, glassy proposal for a renovation of Sandakerveien 58 B/C, a mixed-use space in the Oslo neighborhood of Torshov, had been rejected by both the city’s Cultural Heritage Management Office and Planning and Building Services Commission. It was too tall, the commissioners ruled, and discordant in a neighborhood whose buildings were otherwise in traditional Scandinavian styles.
Nine years later, as the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten reported in January, MAD returned with an aesthetic about-face, unusual within the field: a truncated design, sans the drama of the original, that mirrored the styles around it.
For the Norwegian branch of the social media movement Architectural Uprising, this revision was another feather in its cap. Founded in Sweden in 2014 as a public Facebook group, the Uprising is a collective of citizen design critics who object to what organizers call the “continued uglification” of developments in Nordic cities, and push for a return to classically informed design. With more than 100,000 social media followers across some 40 different branches, the group now serves as a significant platform for those who assert that the public, not just bureaucrats, architects, developers and property owners, ought to have a voice in the design of their built environments.
#long reads#sorry but I find this way more nuanced and less positive than the author of the piece lol

05 Unknown Facts About IKEA
IKEA is a worldwide company in Sweden that offers fully prepared furniture, kitchenware, and home goods. With more than 400 stores providing low-cost home items to thousands of clients, IKEA is the most significant furniture retailer in the world. Ingvar Kamprad, 17, founded Ikea in Sweden in 1943. He sold small items like pencils, handbags, picture frames, and pendulum clocks. IKEA has expanded into a global company with over 400 stores worldwide and more than $40 billion in annual sales.
Despite its current association with furniture, IKEA began selling various products such as pencils, wallets, photo frames, wall clocks, and housewares. IKEA has overtaken all other furniture retailers to become the biggest on the planet. Despite its well-known brand, Ikea still has room to expand since it only has 5 to 10% of the market share in the nations where it works. Although IKEA is well recognized today, the company invented flat-pack, self-assembly furnishings.
Fact # 1: IKEA Has A Unique Naming Scheme
Every product category has a unique name that refers to that thing. Carpets are frequently named after locations in Sweden or Denmark, while fabrics and curtains are given the name after women. Mattresses, for instance, are named after Norway locations, while couches are modelled after Swedish cities. IKEA uses Nordic titles for its home furnishings for a reason, which some people may find confusing. To explain, let’s take a closer analysis of their naming system;
Friheten is a biweekly newspaper published in Norwegian, translated into Freedom in English.
Hemnes is a region in Nordland County in Norway.
Brimnes is a Swedish town.
Flekke means to peel in Norwegian.
METHOD refers to the producer or the creator in Swedish.
Fact #2: Disturbances Become Traction Strategies
IKEA is aware of consumer distraction sources and works to reduce them. For instance, in 1960, Kamprad built a café inside an Ikea store after seeing too many customers left empty-handed due to hunger. The purpose of the in-store eateries was to satisfy the need of shoppers who’d spent an entire day in the shop and make them feel comfortable and cared for. Ikea Restaurant has demonstrated the ability to increase consumer enthusiasm, which increases the likelihood of purchase. They also include a children’s entertainment section. Parents could take their children to play in the “Smaland” kid’s zone. Parents may shop freely, and children can play for free. Also, Ikea has made the whole shop kid-friendly by placing play spaces for children next to parts of the store that parents often visit, such as the kitchens. Kids’ meals at the restaurant are inexpensive and nutritious.
Fact #3: IKEA’S Style Uses Emotions To Increase Sales
It has been established that spontaneous and unforeseen purchases account for about 50% of consumer transactions. When designed effectively, store architecture encourages impulsive purchases. Logic and necessity only account for 20% of our purchasing decisions; emotions drive the other 80%. IKEA follows the same path. IKEA stores typically cover 300,000 square feet. IKEA considers how changing its floor plan might alter consumers’ purchasing habits.
Fact #4: IKEA’s Creative Marketing Strategies to Increase Walk-Ins
IKEA Dubai stated in 2021 that consumers could cover the cost of travel time. Whether dining room furniture, office chairs, or various household gadgets, it has initiated a promotion where customers may purchase from its stores and pay with time rather than money. Of course, it is now. Once IKEA personnel scan the items for their Google Maps records, customers can purchase items at a shop and pay according to the time recorded. This applies to Dubai but may spread as the campaign gains popularity.
Fact #5: IKEA Embraces Technology
IKEA has technology that allows you to create interior designs. IKEA uses technology in several facets of its company, including its user-friendly interface. Their UI-UX is incredibly user-friendly, making selecting the ideal room furniture easier.
For example, they have augmented reality (AR) software set up so clients can visually arrange furniture in their houses before buying it. This novel feature lets buyers see how the table will appear in their area, enabling a more thorough choice process. It also improves customer experience. IKEA keeps up with the times by adopting cutting-edge technology and giving consumers a simple and convenient shopping experience.
To sum up, IKEA has surpassed all of its rivals to become the most significant furniture retailer in the world. IKEA’s success is mainly due to its original idea for flat-pack, self-assembled furniture, despite its initial focus on small, miniature goods. Although having a well-known brand, IKEA still has room for growth as it accounts for a small portion of the market in the nations it serves.

5698 Holly Oak, Hollywood Hills
This is one of those new-style renovations that blends the 70s with Cabo modern. I have a feeling Cabo modern is the feel that's dethroned Modern farmhouse, swapping shiplap for plaster, whitewash with open-pore woods, quartz for veined marble, and subway tile with the craziest tile you can muster.
Second home I've seen like this, with an almost Nordic commitment to a wood exterior. Also note the iron railings that typically accompany this look.
Temple-like use of natural light in here.
This isn't your grandma's powder room, the wood in here is REAL.
Wood counters are a ballsy choice.
Your skyline views.
The one downside of this multilevel balcony though is it gives almost a motel balcony feel.
The kitchen is open, but it isn't. Note the open shelves to another more kitcheny-part of the kitchen.
Here's a detail shot of that stove that I know you're all dying for.
Integrated cabinet paneling for the controls is hot right now.
Your oven and prep area are through those open shelves to another part of the kitchen, almost becoming a butler's kitchen.
That cabinet to the far left? Fridge.
See what I meant about wacky tile? Very instagrammable.
First time since the 90s I've seen long tile fireplace mantles. Grew up with one and now they're back!
Very, very artsy living space.
The built-in mirrored bar that's a step-down from the dining area is an extremely cool touch.
*wendy williams voice* - "what was that..."
Once you see the geodesic dome, you can't unsee it.
You have a view of this down the staircase - a perfect little pocket sink.
Good to see sinks becoming art pieces.
This is your master bedroom. I kind of hate the minimal lighting, but it's decently sized.
Something new - these large wood cabinets (with a nice feel to them) on each side of the bed act as your closets.
More fun tile for the bathroom.
The stacked windows from the bath are very postmodern.
Another interesting sink. This one floats.
Your guest room is among the hillside forest.
And another guest room. Very meditative.
This shower is opposite that stunning pocket sink. Roman tubs are also making a comeback, as are these plaster walls. Rustic!
This is the most useless corner I've ever seen in a house, and I'm kind of obsessed with it. Like a gallery installation.
If you want to skip the upstairs bullshit, you can just hike on up to street level from the bedroom level.
And across the hall is the most * v i b e y * office you can ever imagine.
Absolutely zero work gets done here.
Down another set of stairs is a family room area, with another built in bar (and a hidden microwave).
Also another bedroom with wacky tile on this floor because why not.
This time though they put in a giant fake tree to distract you from the unfinished closet.
One of the absolute coolest bathrooms I've ever seen.
Cork walls!
Heading outside and I tripped (for the 3rd time) in this house from rushed details like this rough door jam. It doesn't need to be THAT rustic.
Soaking tub with outdoor shower looks like a lot of fun.
There's something brutalist about this new kind of architecture in its use of wood. I feel you'll be seeing a lot more of it soon.

Traveler’s Guide to Tamriel
Solitude, Skyrim The Queen City, Jewel of the North, The Wolf Den.
The capitol of Skyrim, and its political center. As I set foot on the docks, I felt the weight of an entire city above me. Ships choked the Karth’s estuary, as thousands moved cargo, people and news to and from the shore. Merchants. refugees. soldiers. adventurers. And a humble writer and his nord guide.
Morgin had to shove a path towards the immigration office. A handy tip for those planning to visit or move, get all the paperwork done by mail first! Once you’ve been approved, feel free to view the hundreds of shops, often selling freshly arrived cargo. The cod is particularly magnificent!
Climbing through the gates upon gates provides an impressive site of the countryside as you rise. It is however annoying. I will thank Morgin for carrying me. Even the city’s entrance is choked with people. Anticipate pickpockets, peddlers and every other kind of person with no sense of personal space!
The city is magnificent.
Its architectural base is nordic, but the refining touches have obvious cyrodiliic and breton origins. These create imposing and utilitarian designs that are none the less beautiful, coupled with tapestry and hanging vines across most buildings.
Its shops and markets, while less plentiful, are of a much higher standard than the below the docks (yet much pricier! ouch!). The city is also bursting with military might and pride. Enjoy the view of decorated soldiers (but no touching, as my guide explained, these nords make a hard line between duty and play. So cyrodiliic influences aren’t always a benefit!). Morgin told me that Solitude has several military parades and events throughout the year. The regimented lifestyle is in harsh contrast with the rest of the city.
The Bards College is filled with the most chaotic music and art I’ve ever laid my senses upon. But focus on a particular detail, and it becomes the most beautiful and clear. This is the joy of Solitude, and even Skyrim. The bards of this land remind its grim people that life is worth living, and death is best left for later. So long as you do not distract the students, or have an inside guide, I’d definitely recommend peering inside its halls. Don’t try to snipe a bard for your court. All college-affiliate bards are under strict guidelines when it comes to work. Going through unofficial channels? That will lead you to becoming the new subject of every comedy for the next month.
The Blue Palace radiates Skyrim at her most beautiful. A feeling perhaps once felt only when the Snow Elves ruled. Refined and elegant as ice, cold and deadly as winter. The nords do court intrigue differently here. The skill of speech is highly valued (there is a bard’s college after all), but there are never lies. Exaggeration, bluntness, and misdirection are all players, but truth is demanded by Solitude’s sovereign.
Why is the fair city, crowded and brimming with life, called Solitude. Maybe it matches the city’ grim and bloody history. Maybe it stands for an all too vacant expression of Skyrim. Perhaps, it matches the weary heads who have worn its crown. When you quite literally stand above them all, it becomes lonely at the top.
