‘The next generation of development’: Single-family communities, H-E-B taking shape in Willis
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in category: habitats
The number of homes starting construction each quarter within Willis ISD’s boundaries has surged by 600% over the last four years as of the third quarter of 2021, according to Zonda, a housing market research firm.
In addition, a spring 2021 study for WISD by demographics firm Population and Survey Analysts projects about 5,560 new homes by 2025.
“For people from the Houston area, they want to get out of the city. It’s too close; there’s too much going on. Part of [Willis’ attraction] is due to … flooding,” said Gary Sumner Sr., managing partner of Patten Properties, developer of Republic Grand Ranch off FM 1097. “Pretty much any direction from Houston except north has [flooding] problems.”

Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: habitats, materials
The earthen tone of this off-grid holiday home in Northern Mexico was selected to match the rock formations of the nearby Cumbres de Majalca National Park, which is known for its dramatic landscapes.
OAX Arquitectos completed this remote home as a vacation getaway for a large family. It is located within a national park in Mexico’s Chihuahua State, just south of the American border.
“As part of the development of the park, a section was reserved to house cottages, but because of its remote location lacks services,” said OAX Arquitectos, which is based in Monterey.

House in The Girl Before informed by minimalist Japanese architecture
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: electronics, habitats
Production designer Jon Henson drew on minimalist Japanese architecture to create a house that acts “like a fourth character” for the set of BBC television series The Girl Before.
Written by British author JP Delaney, The Girl Before is a psychological thriller novel set in a fictional one-bedroom house called One Folgate Street in Hampstead, London.
For the TV series, which was created by BBC and HBO Max, the majority of the interior scenes were filmed last spring in a purpose-built set at Bottle Yard Studios in Bristol, while the house’s exterior was specially built.

The First Archaeological Space Experiment Is Happening Aboard the ISS
Posted by Gemechu Taye in categories: habitats, space
‘Bringing archaeological perspectives to an active space domain’.
While most people naturally associate archaeology with ancient remains and treasured artifacts, one group of scientists is breaking that mold by kickstarting the first-ever archaeological project aboard the International Space Station (ISS), a press statement reveals.
It is the first time such a project has taken place aboard any space habitat and its aim is to catalog how humans adapt their living behaviors while in space for months at a time. As a point of reference, the longest stay aboard the ISS so far is NASA astronaut Christina Koch’s 328-day stay, which ended last year.
