Such success depends, in part, on gaining the confidence of people with means. In an interview a few years ago, Heatherwick described himself as shy in meetings, but Ingels told me, “I’ve seen him in action—he is almost a hypnotist.” Heatherwick could be thought of as a tycoon’s idea of a creative spirit. Jay Cross, Stephen Ross’s colleague at Related, said that “Thomas sees Stephen as the ultimate patron, and I think Stephen sees Thomas as the ultimate genius.” If Heatherwick is indeed introverted, this hasn’t cut him off from the world: he once sat in the front row at a Burberry fashion show in London. Ross told me that he’d taken Heatherwick to Dolphins games, and that his guest had begun to appreciate the sport. (Asked about the relationship between Ross and Heatherwick, Cross said, “Don’t take this word out of context, but I would say it’s loving.”) Will Hurst, an editor and writer at The Architects’ Journal, in London, recently suggested that Heatherwick, more than any other British designer, knows “how to pull the levers of power.”

“Over the years, I have owned many desk lamps. My first was the classic Luxo lamp. My current desk lamp is manufactured by Louis Poulsen, which updates the Luxo approach with a more elegant design, as well as mounting flexibility, and it provides beautiful diffused light. The purchase was serendipitous: A proactive sales person from Poulsen wandered into our design office last year and brought the beautiful and simple new lamp with her. We bought 25 of them. It has multiple brightness levels, with warm LED light. It also has a small footprint, and accommodates a variety of mounting options. The shade stays cool to the touch, and allows easy adjustment. We have been using the lights for nearly a year. We haven’t had any repair issues; we will buy more when we expand.” —Clifford Selbert, founding partner of Selbert Perkins Design, Los Angeles

To the west, over open tracks that will soon be covered by a second platform, and then by more buildings, there was a clear view of the river. Heatherwick said that he wasn’t saddened by thoughts of the eventual loss of this view. “I’m not campaigning for no buildings there,” he said. Soon afterward, I was told that Related’s residential towers on the western Yards will include work by Santiago Calatrava, Frank Gehry, Robert A. M. Stern, and Heatherwick Studio.

Moreover, it will also include the opportunities available in micro markets for stakeholders to invest, detailed analysis of competitive landscape and product services of key players.

“We started to delete the non-necessary geometry,” Wood went on. “And what remained were stairs and landings.” He added, “We wanted it to be small at the bottom, to not jam up the space, but not so small that you can’t get in it. So we found that sweet spot”—a base with a fifty-foot diameter. Each floor, or ring of landings, would be wider than the one below it. The studio at first assumed that each level would include as many landings as possible: five on the bottom floor, increasing to nine at the top. But this made symmetry difficult. The designers decided to preserve a pattern of gradually inflating hexagons, with five landings on every floor.

Samsung was an early mover in CSP technology, likely because that packaging technique was deployed in applications such as TV backlight units before being utilized in general illumination, and Samsung is a major player in TVs. At LightFair in 2016, the company said it had begun a major push of CSP technology into general lighting.

“Out with the old, in with the new” is a great motto for a new year… and one that those of us who love archival music releases try to pay as little attention to as possible. If you have some gift cards burning a hole in your wallet, now is a good time to circle [...]

The prevailing wisdom has been that UV-C-band (generally 180–280 nm) LEDs still lacked the maturity for broad commercial deployment, although the potential for use in sterilization applications is extremely exciting. But LED manufacturers have struggled to produce UV-C LEDs with lifetimes longer than 10,000, or even 5000, hours. And power output and cost challenges remain.

The couple’s spending this election cycle puts them atop all Republican donors listed in federal filings so far. Dan K. Eberhart, a Colorado drilling-services executive and major Republican donor, called them “the new Mercers.”

Creating a server of your own is also a snap. A vertical list along the left side of the app shows the servers you’re already in, so you can switch between them easily. A “Plus” icon is the spot where you can make a server of your own. Give it a name (and a photo to define it, if you like) and that’s it — the server exists and Discord generates a link that lets you invite other people to use it.

“If I thought that Congress was geared up to tackle these big issues, you couldn’t get me out of here with a team of horses,” said Nolan.
