Dymaxion House

Interior view of Buckminster Fuller’s “Dymaxion” house. Photographer: John Philips - 1941  

The Dymaxion House made Fuller suddenly famous on the American architectural scene. The house was a turn away from the orthogonal plan, hexagonal symmetry, a tripod supporting pole in the center from which cables stretch out to the decks- like spokes and a rim from the hub of a wheel. The outer walls of vacuum casein elements are a non-load-bearing screen - opaque, transparent, or translucent. The rooms are lit indirectly by a system of mirror prisms. Publication : 1929
Production : Wichita, Kansas : 1944 - 1945

Sergeant Stubby

Sergeant Stubby (1916 or 1917 – March 16, 1926), was the most decorated war dog of World War I and the only dog to be promoted to sergeant through combat.  He saved his regiment from surprise mustard gas attacks, located and comforted the wounded, and even once caught a German spy by the seat of his pants. Back home his exploits were front page news of every major newspaper. Stubby served with the 102nd Infantry, 26th (Yankee) Division in the trenches in France for 18 months and participated in four offensives and 17 battles.
