On this, Obayashi said, “adults only think about things they understand … everything stays on that boring human level” while “children can come up with things that can’t be explained”. By having his daughter’s insights on the film, Obayashi was able to come up with some of his most surreal scenes, like a haunted piano and a mirror’s reflection attacking the viewer. Now, if all this sounds like style over substance to you, that wouldn’t be an entirely unfair assessment. After all, House is ostensibly a horror film and, although often a little creepy, it’s never truly scary; it’s much too excitable to establish any considerable dread or tension. But as with many other ‘midnight movies’ of the period, the style itself proves substantive, offering viewers a spooky, funny and often downright trippy ghost-train ride. There’s also some subplot involving a professor, a bucket, bananas, and a poltergeist but I’ll leave that to you, dear reader, to decipher.

Best & Worst Horror-Inspired Games of All Time

A decapitated head in a wishing well, a piano that eats its player, and a dancing skeleton. While this may sound like a list of random spooky story ideas, these are all scenes in ‘Hausu’, the 1977 Japanese film by Nobuhiko Obayashi. ‘Hausu’ may have been criticized when it was first released, but it has since become a cult classic, especially among the film buff community. Interestingly enough, the horror film is not admired for being scary but is instead admired for being fun and quirky thanks to its trippy visuals and off-color humor.

Film Review: Mystery Box (Short Film) (Panic Fest

I had a hard time getting into it but when it finally kicks in...it really kicks in. Seven girls on their summer trip pay a visit to a possessed house which plans to eat them in extremely bizzare and surreal ways. Hollywood Insider  is a media network thatfocuses on substance and meaningful entertainment/culture, so as to utilize media as a tool to unite and better our world, by combining entertainment, education and philanthropy, while being against gossip and scandal. There is, however, something underpinning all the madness, a quietly melancholic undercurrent that ultimately elevates the film.

The encounter is initially disregarded by the other girls, but over time they also begin to encounter other supernatural traps throughout the house. Influenced by ideas from his daughter Chigumi, he developed ideas for a script by Chiho Katsura. After the project was green-lit, it was put on hold for two years as no one at Toho wanted to direct it. However, Obayashi kept promoting the film until the studio allowed him to direct it himself.

Commercial director Obayashi came up with a story inspired by his daughter's nightmares, and with presumptuous rogue campaigning and promotion that hyped the film and got him signed to direct, he took the helm of one of the most unusual pieces of cinema to ever be created. It’s a film that is as frustrating as it is enlightening; perhaps a misguided masterpiece, perhaps excessively self-indulgent, but more creative and comprised of more vision than most of the horror films made in the past thirty years. To read this, one might think that this were a horrible film and in a way it is, however, Obayashi is very self-aware and uses the lackluster/subpar cast and limited budget to his advantage. He does not attempt to obscure the shortcomings of his resources and this is a respectable twist on making the most of what one’s stuck with.

Kung Fu's legs manage to escape and damage the painting of Blanche on the wall, which in turn kills Blanche physically. Prof tries to read the diary, but a jar with teeth pulls her into the blood, where she dissolves. Gorgeous appears as her aunt in the reflection in the blood and then cradles Fantasy. Japanese live-action streaming series have struggled to match the global impact of South Korean rivals such as “Squid Game” and “Crash Landing on You.” However, the recent Japan-based shows “Tokyo Vice” and “Shogun” have become popular with international streaming audiences. Both are made by multinational production teams that reject the nearly exclusive domestic focus of the usual drama series backed by consortiums of media companies that have little interest in the overseas market.

The pretty but pensive Gorgeous is joined by Prof (brainy), Kung Fu (violent), Fantasy (a daydreamer), Sweet (homely), Melody (musical) and the ever-eating Mac (short for ‘stomach’) on a summer trip to her aunt’s creaky old house in the countryside. The result plays like a head-on collision between The Evil Dead (1981) and Yellow Submarine (1968) – a fevered flight of horror-fantasy like no other. “A movie” is right, for few films have as much fun simply being a movie as House does.

‘Hausu’ is the funnest haunted house movie ever made thanks to its trippy visuals and playful nature. It plays homage to the typical haunted house story while turning its tropes and visual style on its head. With its bright colors, hybrid of different visual effects, and rapid editing, ‘Hausu’ is a film that one can’t look away from. It will keep you glued to the screen and wondering both what will happen next and how we even got here in the first place. Hausu is a gleeful and playful look at the demented, a fun and engaging experience that any horror fan will love. While ‘Hausu’ is an extremely rewatchable film no one will forget their first time watching the mind-bending treat.

House was filmed on one of Toho’s largest sets, where Obayashi shot the film without a storyboard over a period of about two months. House’s twisted fairytale quality is further heightened by its storybook aesthetic and playful visual approach. Obayashi’s background in advertising shines through here, his compositions often possessing a boldly graphic pop-art quality. Utilising techniques as diverse as stop-motion, hand-drawn animation, picture-in-picture and liberal use of nascent chroma key effects, House’s visual flare is dizzying. But “something like Jaws” would be the director’s first foray into feature films and, hoping to capture the imagination of the youth market, he enlisted his young daughter Chigumi when developing the concept that would become House. The Evil Dead meets Yellow Submarine in Nobuhiko Obayashi’s House, an eye-poppingly hyper-real old-dark-house movie that resembles a haunted pop-up book.

The film, with its vibrant colors and confusing editing, doesn’t look like our reality. The film, not looking like our version of reality, takes the viewers on an immersive journey into the unknown. After the blockbuster success of Jaws, the Toho studio wanted to produce a Japanese competitor in that market.

Quite the contrary, there are outlandish visuals and moments in the film that will make the audience wonder how the heck that even happened, like a man turning into a pile of bananas. The visual wonder of ‘Hausu’ will keep audiences glued to the screen while causing them to never expect what will happen next. Upstairs in the house, Kung Fu and Prof find Gorgeous wearing a bridal gown, who then reveals her aunt's diary to them. Kung Fu follows Gorgeous as she leaves the room, only to find Sweet's body trapped in a grandfather clock, which starts bleeding profusely. Panic-driven, the remaining girls barricade the upper part of the house while Prof, Fantasy and Kung Fu read the aunt's diary. When Fantasy goes to retrieve the watermelon from the well, she finds Mac's disembodied head, which flies in the air and bites Fantasy's buttocks before she escapes.

The aunt disappears after entering the broken refrigerator, and the girls are attacked or possessed by a series of items in the house, such as Gorgeous becoming possessed after using her aunt's mirror and Sweet disappearing after being attacked by mattresses. The girls try to escape the house, but after Gorgeous is able to leave through a door, the rest of the girls find themselves locked in. The girls try to find the aunt to unlock the door but discover Mac's severed hand in a jar. Melody begins to play the piano to keep the girls' spirits up and they hear Gorgeous singing upstairs. As Prof and Kung Fu go to investigate, Melody's fingers are bitten off by the piano, and it ultimately eats her whole.

During its opening titles, Nobuhiko Obayashi’s House (Hausu, 1977) introduces itself on screen as “a movie”, briskly knocking down the fourth wall before the action has even begun. This slyly knowing gesture at the film’s outset serves as a statement of intent, with everything in House reinforcing a sense of hyper-cinematic unreality, from its painted skies and candy-coloured palette to its hyperactive editing and every-trick-in-the-book visual effects. A schoolgirl travels with six of her classmates to her ailing aunt’s creaky, remote country home, where supernatural events occur almost immediately. They come face to face with evil spirits, bloodthirsty pianos, and a demonic housecat. The reading is interrupted by the giant-sized head of Gorgeous, who reveals that her aunt died many years ago while waiting for her fiancé to return from World War II.

As the video essayist is keen to note, Ôbayashi Sr., a Hiroshima survivor, had plenty of his own childhood trauma to draw upon. And the ultimate impression is of a father-daughter duo working through the things that scare them on-screen (be it cannibalistic pianos to losing your friends to an unfathomable catastrophe). Welcome to The Queue — your daily distraction of curated video content sourced from across the web. Today, we’re watching a video essay that looks at the making of the Japanese 1977 horror movie House. The unpredictable quality of the film adds to the horror since the audience never truly knows what to expect. There is not one moment in the film that will make the audience roll their eyes and say “of course, I saw that coming a mile away”.

Exclusive Interview: Filmmaker, Guerrilla Metropolitana (Dariuss)

It is as if the film takes what we expect from a regular haunted house movie and gives us the exact opposite, a funhouse mirror look at the tropes we have become accustomed to. The visual wonder of ‘Hausu’ comes from how the film avoids realism in favor of outlandish imagery and surrealism. The visual approach in the film is more based on a childish playfulness than a desire to look realistic. Obayashi does every trick in the books for the visual effects of the film, from animation mixed with live action to rapid-paced editing to whatever this is. While this visual style may seem disorienting at first, it soon immerses the audience in a viewing experience like no other. In a world where every horror film is trying to be more realistic than the last, ‘Hausu’ is a refreshing change of pace, favoring a child-like whimsy to the boring reality that we live in.

Film Review: House II: The Second Story (

Obayashi was a director of TV commercials before this full-length feature and in many ways it shows. There is a glossy glow to everything and an obsessive attention to detail that allows even his greatest missteps to seem somehow intentional and (usually) technically sound. The editing is equally exuberant, whether it’s the rapid-fire cutting as Kung Fu leaps into action, or the endlessly inventive scene transitions, which lead the film to unfold with the eerie grace of a haunted pop-up book. The oft-repeated origin story for House tells of a Japanese studio, the legendary Toho company, eager to replicate the runaway success of Steven Spielberg’s recently released Jaws (1975). Indeed, “something like Jaws” seems to have been the entirety of Toho’s brief to Obayashi, then best-known as a director of TV commercials. Obayashi’s darkly comic fable tells the story of seven schoolgirls, each of them named for their defining attribute, à la Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937).

Substance & Meaningful Entertainment

Like many a good ghost story, House reflects the ways in which past events can reverberate into the present and, on some level, this is a story about seven happy-go-lucky teenagers being starkly confronted with the wartime trauma their parents’ generation endured. While House is inarguably a work of dense visual and technical complexity, its narrative may well be deceptive in its simplicity. After being widely released in North America in 2009 and 2010, it was met with more favorable response and has since gained a cult following. Another Japanese series made with a similar outward-looking approach will drop April 24 on Disney+. House (Hausu) is a 1977 Japanese surrealist horror comedy Toku film directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi.

Hausu’s creepy old woman is Auntie (Yōko Minamida), who is just having a great time in the film. Instead of being old and shrewd, Auntie revels in the spooky, eating eyeballs and dancing with skeletons. Auntie, like the film itself, has a playful energy unlike the trope of the “creepy old woman”. Auntie acts as a parody of the “creepy old woman” trope by putting the trope on its head, acting differently than the creepy old women that came before her yet still being spooky.

"People are getting more and more interested in Japanese culture," says Executive Director Kazumi Teune. "Our mission is to share the Japanese culture in Philadelphia. People are embracing shogun culture, anime, samurai, sake and it's all here. Throughout the year we have programs that celebrate the Japanese culture." We are a cultural charity, a National Lottery funding distributor, and the UK’s lead organisation for film and the moving image. Gorgeous tells Ryoko that her friends will wake up soon and that they will be hungry.

Kung Fu's legs manage to escape and damage the painting of Blanche on the wall, which in turn kills Blanche physically. Prof tries to read the diary, but a jar with teeth pulls her into the blood, where she dissolves. Gorgeous appears as her aunt in the reflection in the blood and then cradles Fantasy.

To add to the absurdity, characters are named after singular traits which define them throughout the film such as Melody who plays the piano, Fanta the daydreamer, and Mac the glutton. Following this, she shrugs and sighs, musing, “It must have been my imagination.” She continues on as if nothing ever happened and the scene is never referenced again. The film is chockfull of scenes like this and it will either captivate or infuriate the viewer to no end. Like a cat which materializes one day on Oshare’s window sill, spews blood in another scene, and plays the piano in reverse.

House was filmed on one of Toho’s largest sets, where Obayashi shot the film without a storyboard over a period of about two months. House’s twisted fairytale quality is further heightened by its storybook aesthetic and playful visual approach. Obayashi’s background in advertising shines through here, his compositions often possessing a boldly graphic pop-art quality. Utilising techniques as diverse as stop-motion, hand-drawn animation, picture-in-picture and liberal use of nascent chroma key effects, House’s visual flare is dizzying. But “something like Jaws” would be the director’s first foray into feature films and, hoping to capture the imagination of the youth market, he enlisted his young daughter Chigumi when developing the concept that would become House. The Evil Dead meets Yellow Submarine in Nobuhiko Obayashi’s House, an eye-poppingly hyper-real old-dark-house movie that resembles a haunted pop-up book.

Despite Auntie’s hermetic lifestyle and tragic wartime backstory (her fighter-pilot fiancé never returned to marry her), she is far from the Miss Havisham type. The girls find both her and the titular house perfectly charming upon their arrival. But with spooky happenings around the house and the visiting party starting to shrink in numbers, both home and homeowner reveal their sinister true natures. Not to be confused with the American haunted house movie called House, or that other House who's a snarky doctor. The visual style of ‘Hausu’ can’t be explained with rational thinking since children can come up with things that can’t be explained like an adult can. This unexplainable style with little to no logic also adds to the horror of the film.

There’s a central musical theme that reoccurs through the film which is fantastic, but some directorial choices are ineffective (it is only Obayashi’s debut after all). The art design is meticulous as is the sound, but the acting is horrid most of the time. The story of Hausu was a radio hit following relentless promotion by writer/director Obayashi which persuaded Toho studio to adapt it into a feature film. It is often cited as a precursor to Evil Dead 2, but given that it was released in 1977 and the fact that it was almost never made makes this eclectic horror romp rather impressive and more than just a little influential to horror cinema in general. The surreal comedy-horror bit is often trumped by absurdist melodrama with an incomprehensible plot encompassing demonic possession, ESP, telekinesis, and cannibalism.

‘Hausu’ makes you feel like you’re tripping at a Halloween party in the best way possible. Moreover, it was perhaps Chigumi’s input that began moving the project further and further away from Toho’s initial brief, imbuing the emerging story with a certain dream logic. At times House almost feels like a children’s film, its opening scenes featuring broad slapstick, a cheesy pop song and endless girlish giggling. ‘Hausu’ isn’t one of those movies that is “so bad that it’s good” because its look is fully intentional, it doesn’t look this way due to a lack of budget like other cult classics such as ‘Troll 2’. It instead looks like a children’s Halloween themed pop-up book because of the film’s inspiration. While making the film, Obayashi regularly talked to his pre-teen daughter about what scary ideas she thought should be in the movie.

We will start receiving Christmas items October 1st of each year. If there are Christmas decorating items still available on December 26th we will remove them from inventory! If Christmas items are not picked up promptly, they are subject to donation. Checks are processed at the end of the month after all your sold items have been calculated. Customers should receive a call to pick up their check by the 10th of the month.

Underground Minecraft house

There are lots of nice houses in Minecraft, but our personal favourite is the classic Minecraft treehouse. There’s something so satisfying about being high up in the air, surrounded by a beautiful canopy of green. Minecraft treehouses also have a natural defence against roaming hostiles, so are both pretty and functional.

Minecraft castle

Let’s crack on and find out how to make Minecraft houses to make all the neighbours jealous. The process of overcoming and learning to live with an addiction is an enormous challenge. The road is long and difficult, and should not be tackled alone. At Bella’s House, you will find the support and information you need to start on the path to recovery.

Sunday Rose Kidman Urban, 15

Bella's House was established in 2005 in a quaint, 2000 square foot space filling Burlington's need for a quality, consignment furniture store. After a few short months, the business expanded to a larger storefront. The success of selling consignment furniture made it possible to offer new lines of furniture, lamps, and decorative accessories that compliment the large amount of used items in the store. One of the fundamental parts of your Minecraft experience is building your forever home. You might be focused on the basics, such as building cute houses (we see you, cottagecore), and simplicity may be key for you.

Bella’s Gift Certificates

Like the one above, there are tonnes of wooden designs that are beautiful, and not too hard to put into practice, no matter your experience level with building. Once the article is sold, the consignor will receive 60% of the actual selling price for items priced above $50. Checks are processed on a monthly basis and you will be notified once your check is ready.

Although Bella has an active Instagram, followers shouldn’t expect her to share family moments. Nicole Kidman’s greatest role isn’t on the big or small screen. Instead, it’s being the best mom possible to her four children. This can even be beneficial in solo play, as having a Redstone-controlled secret base ensures that no Mobs can break down a door and invade your private safe space. Whilst you can always discover and take over the humongous Woodland Mansions that spawn in your world, it will more than likely feel like a hollow victory. Only through hard work and perseverance can the decadence of a mansion feel truly earned.

Whether you’re an expert builder or you barely know how to build a house in Minecraft, a castle has likely crossed your mind as a long-term goal. Particularly excellent alongside other medieval-style builds (even more so if you apply a complimentary texture pack), castles can feel restrictive in your approach to building them. For those wanting to live more lavishly, a mansion is an excellent project to display the wealth of resources and items that you have accumulated as you’ve explored.

At Bella's House we offer to sell by consignment quality furniture, rugs, lamps, mirrors, pictures, books, accessories, fine jewlery and much more. We gladly accept your upholstered furniture that is not ripped or torn. We do ask that you call or come by to discuss that we have a market for your article at a particular time. Also keep in mind for underwater houses, you are often required to build a tunnel to get to the house, either straight down through the water or underground, and then up into the house. Either way, this permits you to come up with some unique ideas on how to conceal the entrance so those who don’t look too closely won’t even realize you’re dwelling beneath them.

A seemingly simple build idea that can actually be quite difficult to pull off effectively, treehouses can be an eco-friendly way of leaving your footprint on the world. Often quite small and cute (think an Ewok hut in Return of the Jedi), you’ll likely want to use all-natural materials for these builds so that they blend in as much as possible. Having that in mind, why not make some bold choices, not only in the design and layout of your house, but the materials used?

Our bulk purchasing practices assure that you will receive the absolute lowest price and fastest shipping in the industry. The items are reduced in price every 30 days and kept on the floor for up to four months. The owner receives 60% of the actual selling price for items over $50 and 50% for items under $50. Everyone begins somewhere, and Minecraft starter houses offer easy-to-build templates based upon procurable materials. But that doesn’t mean Minecraft starter houses are dull.

We try to keep our store stocked with nice things that someone would want to use in their home. We consider how old and if that item can be used in decorating a home. We also consider the pricing based on what you might pay for that item if it were new and sell it for approximately half. Drawers should open and close properly and nothing should be broken. A natural progression for many people due to the importance of farming as you get further into your game, a farmstead is a wonderful way to naturally expand your home. Minecraft castles are a great way to protect yourself in a survival world, you can build a wall around your base to keep the mobs far from causing any harm and create your own base inside.

A regal castle is a great idea if you’re looking for a big final build for your Minecraft kingdom. The Minecraft desert biome is one of the more desolate, but if you’re wanting an easy building material, look no further. Sandstone, sand, and glass are incredibly easily attainable and are great materials for building in the desert. What’s more, there’s plenty of open space meaning that you can build as much as you want and there will be little in the way of whatever you desire. Sometimes you just want something that simply looks good, but also isn’t ridiculously complicated to make.

Make a mark on the world that stands out, as opposed to blending in. With many modern houses, you see architects aiming to build a cool house that's unique. After all, Minecraft being the ultimate creativity tool should lend you some amount of personal expression. (If you're just beginning to plan your modern house build, we like this easy tutorial video on how to build your first modern house in Minecraft). Attempting to build with similar materials, which just so happen to be those most abundant early on in your gameplay, it can begin to feel iterative and too similar to the last time you started a new world.

This means that you can mainly use this for inspiration. With its close proximity to ores and precious loot, it’s a great place for your next building project. If you fancy keeping your belongings below the surface, this fantastic guide shows you how to make your very own underground house. Keep some glass blocks handy so you can keep an eye on what’s going on above!

You can choose to create a wholly unique castle, or you can take inspiration from famous castles from real life or in fiction. Be it Windsor Castle in England, Kaer Morhen from The Witcher series, or Hogwarts Castle from Harry Potter, choose something that you have a personal affinity for. Not only will it give you the drive to continue with these lengthy builds, but it can also give you specific elements to build off of. Start with the Great Hall of Hogwarts, the drawbridge of Castle Greyskull, whatever it takes to start the process with a memorable section, and flesh it out from there. The age-old build that everyone has tried at one point or another.

A Dutch door is a sliding gate with two halves that can open independently. This allows you to open only the top half, and keep the bottom half closed for privacy or security of your front yard. A simple grid pattern really comes alive when repeated in the fence, gate, and front door of a house. The grid pattern is accented by a rounded shape in the gate and gentle curve pattern built into the sidewalk (reflected by the giant container behind it). Take advantage of old tree limbs to create a charming, rustic entrance to your garden. Here, the rough wood is a perfect partner for the irregularly shaped flagstone walk.

Benefits of a Sliding Driveway Gate In Los Angeles

This type of gate is usually not automated, but it is usually only a little wider than the gate opening required, so it’s a good choice for locations with limited space for sliding. Sliding gates that are made for these types of tracks are usually heavier duty and have a large rectangular steel section as a bottom rail, with steel wheels embedded inside the track. Depending on the location where the main gate is to be installed, use, convenience, cost, and other factors, there are three types of sliding gate designs based on their operational mechanism. Because of many advantages over its peer gate designs, today sliding gate has become an integral part of modern architecture. Sliding gates are simple to install, look great, and are very easy to use.

That classic wrought ironwork is twisted into this tree so perfectly that even the tiny little leaves are in detail. Sunsets must look gorgeous at the top of this hill through this wrought iron design. This impressive stone and iron gate appears that it can easily slide into place.

Bring that concept to your modern outdoor area by simply adding some interesting cut-out shapes. Spades, keyholes, and hearts – you can really add whatever you like to either an existing fence, or you can easily find new fencing that already has cut-outs in them. If you buy something new and would prefer it to look vintage, there is always paint and stains to help with that. Design a modern DIY double sliding gate to make a statement while securing your property. This project offers a stylish, contemporary look that’s both functional and inviting, making it an impressive addition to any home. Making an inexpensive sliding deck gate for under $60 is a savvy way to add safety and style to your deck.

These engineering marvels are the best bet for your money and we highly recommend you to check them out for your home. Here are more details on the types, and buying tips with a list of 10 latest sliding gate designs in 2024. Small Sliding Gate IdeasIf you have a small area that you need to secure, a sliding gate can be an excellent solution. A sliding fence kit can be the perfect way to add extra security to a small yard or patio. Aluminum sliding gates are rust-resistant, durable, and lightweight.

For larger entrances, a DIY large metal frame rolling gate can be an impressive project. It provides a sturdy and reliable barrier that can be customized to match your property’s aesthetic, making a statement while ensuring security. A manual sliding gate combines traditional craftsmanship with functionality. This project is perfect for those who prefer a hands-on approach, offering a sense of accomplishment upon completion and a practical solution for property access. If your gate needs are more about style than security, consider something like this charming cedar wood gate with a windowpane design.

Being able to house so many flowers must make this outdoor area smell fantastic! Imagine sipping tea for a mid-morning breakfast picnic with all these beautiful flowers in plain sight. Another pillared option is one like this gate, poised between two elegant, concrete pillars, covered in vines. The vines add some natural beauty in spring through early autumn, while the spiney vines add some intrigue in winter and late autumn.

Sliding gate designs for commercial use

Sliding driveway gates open by sliding parallel to the walls or fencing on either side of the driveway rather than by swinging open 90 degrees on a hinge. Usually they open via the movement of a single panel, although sometimes they operate via a two panel system in which one panel slides open to the left and the other to the right. These gates are moved on rail tracks that have been installed on the ground.

The husband and wife team from @casa_colorful transformed plain wood posts into “pencils” by carving the ends and painting them. Sliding gates also typically require a flat, level surface for them to move along. If your property has a slope, it may need to be altered slightly to flatten it out. Thirdly, the driveway needs to be level from left to right so that there isn’t a gap underneath the gate. It also requires room either to the right or the left to slide open into, meaning the grade can’t slope up in this area. Any issues with grade, however, can usually be rectified with some light excavation or landscaping work.

And if you truly love the rainbow, you can paint each panel of the gate a different color, starting with yellow and going to the end of the rainbow. Mixing colors just a hint can give you those in-between shades for the perfect gradient. If you love a nice, rustic look or just want nothing to go to waste, using reclaimed wood to create a simple, attractive gate like this one is a great way to solve two problems at once. You can find some old barn wood, pallet wood, scraps from the woodpile, etc---and a simple tutorial---and this gorgeous gate will be ready to go in no time. The vertical steel planks of the fence carry on to the gate, providing a seamless transition and clean look.

Los Angeles profoundly shaped the modernist movement, but the City of Angels holds far more than its historic legacy. From Pierre Koenig’s iconic Stahl house to the Eames House and the transformation of the Los Angeles Basin, the city has continuously sought a new aesthetic, one where progressive forms and spatial multiplicity coexist. Reacting against old styles and outdated approaches, architects have constantly reimagined the city’s built environment through experimentation and reinterpretation.

This is a university that has both one of the largest Jewish student populations of any of its peers. But it also has a large Arab and Muslim student population, a big Middle Eastern studies program. Nick, if we rewind the clock a few months, we end up at a moment where students at several of the country’s best known universities are protesting Israel’s response to the October 7 attacks, its approach to a war in Gaza. At times, those protests are happening peacefully, at times with rhetoric that is inflammatory. And the result is that the leaders of those universities land before Congress. But the president of Columbia University, which is the subject we’re going to be talking about today, is not one of the leaders who shows up for that testimony.

Modern-style homes are still new in the world of design and architecture, as they didn’t become popular until the 20th century. These homes are characterized by clean lines, minimalistic aesthetics, and a focus on functionality.

Columbia University has become the epicenter of a growing showdown between student protesters, college administrators and Congress over the war in Gaza and the limits of free speech.

So the only way we’re going to be able to move forward is if you will respect our rules and we’ll respect your point of view. Something is not connecting with those two points of view. And as if that’s not hard enough, you then have Congress and the political system with its own agenda coming in and putting its thumb on a scale of an already very difficult situation. There’s a video that goes viral of one of them shouting at Jewish students, go back to Poland, go back to Europe. What it seemed to evoke was the message that Hamas should murder those Jewish students.

If you want to avoid making mistakes, look for the following factors and discuss them with your project manager. On the left side of this home, you will find the 16’x12’6″ master bedroom. It has a double vanity bathroom and an 8’x5’6″ walk-in closet. There are two more bedrooms in this plan and they both measure 12’x11’6″. All functional spaces can be found in the upper left side of the house which holds the laundry, a mechanical room and the pantry.

Some students become fearful that if they participate in any demonstrations, they’re going to face disciplinary action.

I have two teen daughters and we are a family of Twi-hards – but don’t tell anyone that my husband enjoys (OK, tolerates) the movies as well. To celebrate my youngest daughter V’s 13th birthday, we went on a Twilight road trip. She’s blind, non-verbal and can’t walk, but communicates in her own way, and loves to be a part of the action. She was excited when I mentioned the idea of a Twilight road trip, but honestly I wasn’t sure how she would handle all of the driving and changes of location. Turns out she really enjoyed it and was so happy when we would tell people about our adventure.

According to myths and legends on the south, the mothers of this particular kind of children have never survived the pregnancy. Knowing this, Edward tries to convince Bella to save her life by having an abortion, but Bella refuses, as she has come to love the child. To protect the baby, she has Rosalie be her guardian, and Emmett and Esme side with her. Edward's hatred ceases when he hears the child's thoughts to find that she already loves her parents, and that she has been hurting her mother by accident, and tries hard not to hurt her again. Bella originally believed that she was carrying a boy and named her "E.J." (Edward Jacob), but saved up the name "Renesmee" in case it's a girl, which proves to be true.

Additionally, the rooms do look like they did in the film, including the infamous dog painting in Bella's bedroom.

She also tries to not think about Edward's name, because it hurt too much. The house is located in St. Helens, Oregon and was built in 1935; it’s in a quiet neighborhood in downtown Saint Helens, within walking distance to the historic riverfront, short drive to Portland.

Soho Friends also receive access to tickets for various House festivals and events throughout the year. Locate Nashville’s original hot chicken at Prince’s, which has been seeing to the city’s fiery fried poultry needs for almost a century now.

Plan Your Outdoor Space

Bourbon heads can be soothed with popcorn, cotton candy and gummy bears during a screening at the 60-seat cinema or with carb-loading at Cecconi’s the next day. Many times, but not always, the monthly fees at country clubs include a food and beverage allowance that encourages members to spend time at the club as they’ve already paid for some meals. This creates a place where people see each other time and time again. But, after you drop that kind of cash, most people will want to use the facilities anyway. It promotes community by affiliation, and it absolutely works.

Start the morning with a workout, steam, and coffee, then move on to a designated working lounge, then to lunch, and finish the day with dinner, drinks, and a concert. Members can even stay overnight, for an additional fee, in one of the nicest hotel-like rooms in Nashville. The largest Soho House location in North America, the members-only space boasts two restaurants, a cinema, ample outdoor space – including a pool – and special events. Comparisons have been made to a country club, but Soho House is definitely not a country club. While both concepts are exclusive and offer fabulous amenities to their members, there are marked differences in everything from their application process to guest policies.

Location

A total of 170 pieces were acquired from 41 local artists to be displayed throughout the hotel and club areas. Referencing the machinery once housed in the space, bespoke bar lamps with an industrial aesthetic contrast softer materials like velvet and textured sheer linen. At the heart of the building, the Club Room is divided by industrial metal shelving into intimate spaces including a library with a fireplace and a games area. As would be expected, local music was a significant influence in the design of the new space. The house includes three separate indoor/outdoor performance areas (more than any other house yet) with the intention of allowing members the opportunity to make impromptu performances. Club Cecconi’s is the in-house restaurant featuring Italian dishes with fresh-made pasta and a regularly rotating menu.

Located in what used to be the May Hosiery Building dating back to the 1900s, the address at 500 Houston Street may feel a bit unexpected since it's about a 10-minute drive south from downtown Nashville.

Could offer,” says group managing director Gareth Banner, in a statement. Up in NYC, the Ned is nestled in the 167-room NoMad hotel and features dining establishments the public can also enjoy. That includes Cecconi’s — a modern Italian restaurant serving pastas, pizza, and seafood — and Little Ned, a Prohibition-era cocktail bar with small plates and views of the Empire State Building. Meet Ned’s Club Washington D.C., an elite downtown club where members will mix and mingle across three upper floors formerly home to iconic institutions Riggs Bank and American Security and Trust Company (734 15th Street NW).

The house is a little outside of the city centre, so it’s wise to bring your own wheels, or depend on easy-to-summon cabs courtesy of a ride-hailing app. There’s parking on-site for guests for an additional fee (hourly or nightly). The Picante is alive and well in Nashville, but other cockle-warmers on the menu include equally intoxicating takes on hot toddies and Irish coffees. The bar is open till 11pm on most weeknights, 1am on Thursday and 2am on Friday and Saturday. Soho House often chooses sites with a tale to tell, but MayHosiery Mills has to be one of the most interesting. Built in theearly 1900s, this former sock factory and warehouse has livedthrough, and been connected to, some of the biggest events of the20th century.

Granted, making a reservation isn’t as cut and dry as securing a typical hotel room. First, you’ll pay more for your room than those who hold membership, but the rates are surprisingly accessible. And if you want to be in a walkable part of town full of bars, restaurants, and creative energy — but you prefer not to stay downtown — Wedgewood-Houston is an ideal choice. On arriving at Soho House Nashville, it won’t take you long to realise you’re in Music City (there’s a giant guitar outside, for a start; and the club’s neighbours are Apple Music and Spotify). As with many Soho House spaces, the group likes to get in there early and call a buzzy new area before it’s officially hip – and the Nashville edition, in soon-to-arrive Wedgewood-Houston is a prime example.

Do you play an instrument on the side or have a passion for photography visible on your social media account? These are just some of the questions that will be going through the minds of the membership committee. They are specifically looking for well-rounded, creative people, so taking time to fill out your application thoroughly is important. 'When thinking about the way Nashville feels, there's a grit andsoul, but also an element of glamour.

Nashville International is around a quarter of an hour away by car, with bargainous taxis costing around $5 and ride shares available. Direct flights land here from other US cities, including Atlanta, Charleston, Boston and Chicago. Double rooms from £293.23 ($366), including tax at 16.25 per cent. Please note the hotel charges an additional room tax of $2.50 per room per night on check-out.

The walls and spaces are also filled with artwork representing 41 artists connected to Tennessee, most local to Nashville. There are 170 amazing pieces, including textile-based installations, sculpture, photography, cyanotypes, painting, collage, embroidery, and mixed media works. Soho House is a place where creatives can gather to socialize at any time.

If you ask the head of membership at any Soho House if so-and-so is a member, they will not be able to tell you. Soho House Nashville officially opened a couple of weeks ago and already has a ton of buzz. Here are the answers to all of your questions, starting with why the common comparison to a country club is not an accurate one. The pinnacle of an Art Deco-era building near the White House will welcome two new restaurants this winter — but the masses won’t be able to actually eat there. A few of the fun details include a Roberts Radio, Bluetooth Marshall speaker, and a minibar with fresh lemons and limes. There are all the accouterments needed to whip up a cocktail or two, plus a few cold beers as well as alcohol-free drink options.

Adaptive reuse of century-old downtown buildings into dining destinations is a hot trend right now, with NYC import La Grande Boucherie having just debuted nearby inside the old Federal-American National Bank Building. While the in-room snack options are extensive, perhaps the most impressive features of the rooms at Soho House Nashville are the other amenities — everyday items often forgotten at home during travel. The bathroom, which boasts a shower and a standalone tub, offers multiple types of fragrant shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel from the natural beauty and skincare line Cowshed.

Nashville’s New Soho House: Definitely NOT a Country Club

"We didn't want to be competing with all the great barbecue restaurants in town — we wouldn't do it as well as they do it," Jones says. "There's quite a lack of Italian restaurants in Nashville, so to do Club Cecconi's, where we know what we're doing, and bringing it only to our members seems like a very obvious move." Also new to the city's dining and drinking scene is The Twelve Thirty Club , which is owned by restauranteur Sam Fox and musician Justin Timberlake.

This inclusive model ensures that no matter where you are, you can enjoy a familiar, comforting environment, much like members of Soho House enjoy familiar comforts across global locations. Imagine walking into a space where the elegant atmosphere immediately hits you with music playing, stylish brands lining the shelves, and where the who's who is gathering. This might sound like an introduction to Soho House, the chic social club known globally for its exclusive, elegant ambiance and a gathering spot for the elite. Yet, this description aptly fits The Bunny Hive, a burgeoning network of children's clubs quickly earning the nickname "Soho House for kids."

One such space that's open to both members and guests is The Alley, the public lobby that features a barista station and that's available for all to hang out and work in. The Sock Room also celebrates the factory's prior use for producing socks that astronauts wore to the moon, and now hosts live music and events. But, they will not get in based on their profession or salary. Membership is not based on where you went to college, and there are no extra points for an Ivy League education. The membership committee is more interested in whether a potential member has a creative bent.

The quality score helps ensure that our selection stays fresh and vital. You’ll also get access to member-only discounts and a dedicated team of travel experts ready to provide personalized assistance along every step of your journey. If you travel a lot, the Every House membership makes sense to extend the idea of access to a home away from home. The one-off registration fee is the same for the “Local House” and “Every House” memberships. But, the process is selective and subjective for who gets through — there is no hard-and-fast set of criteria.

It's the home of countrymusic, so while its landscape and colour tones are warm and earthy,the people who have played here are pretty much music royalty. Thisgot us thinking about all the icons who impacted the musicalculture of Nashville over the years. "Each bedroom has been designed to feel traditional and cosy with woven tapestries, made with bespoke fabric designed in Nashville specifically for the house, to hide all TVs," said the team. An “Every House” membership grants access to every Soho House in the world, except for Little Beach House Malibu. You can pop in to use any house’s health club, get lunch or dinner, sit poolside, or use communal space to relax during the day. In essence, The Bunny Hive does more than fill a gap in childcare; it redefines the concept by blending the luxury and communal spirit of Soho House with the practical needs of family life.

I’d like to visit Soho House in Berlin as both Nashville and Berlin’s Houses are “Bauhaus-inspired” with geometric patterns, rounded corners, and bold industrial finishes. Bauhaus was a German art school in operation from 1919 to 1933, so the Bauhaus-inspired decor reflects the building’s age. The bespoke fixtures also pay homage to the building’s factory history.

It stands out from other play spaces by providing a consistent, upscale experience that enriches the children and adults in their lives. The Bunny Hive is not just the Soho House for kids—it's a new paradigm for family-oriented social spaces where every visit enriches, soothes, and connects. The design of each location is meticulously planned to ensure that both adults and children feel at ease, with aesthetics that rival the well-curated environments of Soho House. “We’re not just providing physical spaces but an environment that reimagines networking, entertainment, dining and events in an iconic building and location that only D.C.

The light tones of teal, inspired by the building’s original verdigris copper doors, run throughout the House, creating a rich colour connection throughout the spaces. Music City influences do not escape Soho House Nashville with its warm, rich textures of the rock and roll era and decorative patterns that nod to the Jazz and Blues genres. The bold striped floor of the Pool Terrace harps back to the stripes of the guitar string board. The bedrooms are decorated with vintage accessories and bespoke pieces from local furniture makers. The hotel bedrooms also feature works from Tennessean artists David Onri Anderson, Blythe Colvin Veronica Leto or Paul Collins. Each bedroom has been designed to feel traditional and cosy with woven tapestries, made with bespoke woven fabric designed in Nashville specifically for the House, to hide all TVs.

Also on-site is the Soho Health Club with a reclaimed timber floor made of material from another old factory, plus a sauna, steam room, and yoga terrace. Since 2004, Soho House has collaborated with Enzo Cecconi's Italian restaurant Cecconi's, with locations from Mumbai and Istabul to London and Miami. But Nashville marks the first in-house location for Cecconi's, featuring a rotating menu of the restaurant's best-known dishes, with a touch of Nashville influence. Located inside the former May Hosiery Building, the 47-room House also hosts Tennessee's largest local contemporary art collections.

"I say to my design team, every project they do they get better," Jones says of the rooms, noting that, during his own stay this week, he was taken by everything from the mini bar to the water pressure. "With so many hotel rooms, you feel you could be in any city in the world because they're cookie cutter, but we always start with a clean piece of paper and design for that city." A former hosiery factory in Nashville has been converted into a Soho House hotel and members' club, designed with nods to its industrial setting and the city's musical heritage. What sets The Bunny Hive apart from other play spaces is not just its inclusive membership and stylish design. Imagine styling sessions by the 'Blowout King,' reminiscent of the wellness and self-care services you might find at Soho House, but tailored to the needs of busy parents.
