Their new design is the culminating piece of the 20-plus-year restoration of this national historic landmark, an 1887 synagogue. Smith and Gans’s design features a celestial motif – illuminated stars in a swirling pattern that evokes the Big Bang.

Dettmer alters pre-existing materials by selectively removing and manipulating elements as a way to allow new interpretations and ideas to emerge. With the precision of a surgeon, Dettmer uses scalpels, tweezers, and other medical instruments to carve into the surface of his found objects to reveal hidden meanings.

Coraline is far better and darker than most children’s films.  The visuals were completely inspiring and I can’t wait to see it again and again.


from the original book by Neil Gaiman


Coraline and her kitty venture down the rabbit hole.


The mouse circus performance was my favorite part.
