  4. Ken Kahan strives to build 'something you would be proud of'

    <strong>The gig:</strong> Ken Kahan, 54, is founder and president of California Landmark, a real estate development company that has made its mark throughout the Los Angeles area by acquiring, rehabilitating and building new projects in both commercial and residential real estate. He is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the organization, which is based in West Los Angeles. Kahan frequently finds himself on job sites, getting his hands dirty.

  5. Santa Monica hotel that shunned the ocean to be replaced

    With ocean views selling at a premium throughout Southern California, it can be dumbfounding to encounter a prominent downtown Santa Monica hotel that deliberately averts its gaze from the water.

  6. Micro apartments in Los Angeles: 'How Small Is Too Small?'

    With condo buildings sprouting from vacant lots and talk of lifting height restrictions on its high-rises, Hollywood offers one of the best illustrations of Los Angeles' push toward population density. In the heart of this quickly changing neighborhood, in an appropriately tiny storefront gallery, two exhibitions show the direction of L.A. through studies of micro apartments and multifamily apartments.

  7. A transcendent perch in the Silver Lake Hills

    Every house is a reflection of its owner. Some owners are just a bit more complicated than others. Tim Tattu is still settling into his new house, designed by Los Angeles architect <a title="Tom Marble" href="http://www.tommarble.com/" target="_blank">Tom Marble</a> in the steep hills overlooking the Silver Lake Reservoir. It is an explosion of angles, steel and outsized ambition. But the house is also filled with small spaces, contemplative moments and simple materials. It's an epic study in contrasts, as is Tattu himself.

  8. Le Corbusier as a force for nature?

    NEW YORK &mdash; It's easy to imagine that "Le Corbusier: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes," a vast, dense and beautifully installed new exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, began as a kind of parlor game. You can almost picture the curators, Jean-Louis Cohen and Barry Bergdoll, brainstorming to come up with the most unlikely, counterintuitive thesis about Le Corbusier they could &mdash; and then setting out to defend it with straight faces, deep scholarship and a good deal of museological firepower.

  12. Japanese port city of Nagasaki has long East-West connection

    NAGASAKI, Japan &mdash; On my first trip to Nagasaki, just out of college, I knew what most of the world knows: An atomic bomb fell here on Aug. 9, 1945, bringing World War II to a close. It wasn't until my second visit, more than 20 years later on a guidebook assignment, that I realized how much I had missed.
