The Magic of America: Electronic Edition – Marion Mahony Griffin
"'The Magic of America,' a typescript of over 1,400 pages with approximately 650 accompanying illustrations, was written and compiled by Marion Mahony Griffin (1871-1961), architect, designer, delineator, and artist. In 1911 she married Walter Burley Griffin (1876-1937), architect, landscape designer, and city planner. Their architectural practice spanned almost four decades on three continents, and "The Magic of America" was meant, in part, to be a testament to their life and work together."

Healthcare on the Move (PDF file) | Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design
"Smart Pods is a two-year study that culminates in an exhibition at the Royal College of Art, during 2009. Smart Pods explores new mobile treatment solutions that will enable ECPs and other healthcare professionals to assess and treat more people in the community, instead of taking them by ambulance to hospital. Up to 50% of patients currently taken to hospital following a 999 call could be treated at home if the correct supporting and enabling technologies were in place."
