At this school in Bangkok, Thailand, every surface is a learning experience. The Pattaya Redemptorist School For the Blind enrols students with varying levels of vision ability. Its goal is to help teach those students how to read and navigate the world around them.

The school enlisted Bangkok design studio Creative Crews to transform the building into a tactile experience where walls and floors become spaces for play and learning. Designed around the pre-braille curriculum, which helps young children develop tactile awareness and prepare for reading and writing braille, the school’s new additions include several perforated and magnetised walls onto which objects can be inserted and attached — via Curbed

The Foster House by John Lautner in Sherman Oaks, California dates back to 1950, so has managed to avoid the open market for the best part of 60 years.

The interior is lined with redwood walls and tongue and groove ceilings, while a brick fireplace and walls add contrast. Like many mid century homes, the exterior walls facing the street are nondescript, creating privacy for the floor-to-ceiling glass walls that open onto views of the lake. 5980 Beechwood Drive is on the market now for $2,449,00 — via Curbed

Pitstop is a team of three led by an Indonesian builder called Agung. They’re based in the hot and humid province of Central Java, and like most Indonesian builders they have to be incredibly resourceful and thrifty. Yet this does not seem to affect the quality of their work. This Bonneville is actually a T120R, one of the lesser-known Meriden models. It was an export version of the base bike, and branded as the Bonneville Speedmaster by dealers in the USA. It’s not an especially well-documented model, but the fuel tank was smaller and the bars had a slightly higher bend — via Bike EXIF

This A-frame home was designed by architect Charles DuBois in 1958 in an effort to stand out from the architecture of other neighbourhood homes. Better known as a Swiss Miss House for its chalet-inspired shape, the home is unlike the surrounding butterfly or flat-roofed houses of Vista Las Palmas that were built by Joe Dunas and the Alexander Construction Company in the 1950s. DuBois envisioned a low-lying ranch home that was bifurcated by a steep, dramatic A-frame roof that rose straight from the ground. 755 West Crescent Drive is on the market now for $2,999,900 — via Curbed

There are plenty of stunning mid century modern homes in Palm Springs, but this one bedroom gem is straight out of a movie set. Called the Cree House and designed in 1955 by Swiss-born architect Albert Frey, the home was commissioned by prominent Palm Springs community leader Raymond Cree. But unlike many of the other stand-out buildings in the area, the flat-roofed, boxy home set into the rocky foothills was never open to the public. 67389 East Palm Canyon Drive is on the market now for $2,500,000 — via Curbed

This project started off as a total basket case spread over multiple boxes.
