This fascinating lexicon examines the quixotic architectural expressions found on select mid-20th-century modern commercial buildings in South Florida. Showcasing the work of 13 noted architects from Miami Beach to Fort Lauderdale, it highlights the playful decorative details and gestures--swooping overhangs, brise-soleil, cheese holes and arches, and screening--that expressed the era's shiny optimism and the region's carefree resort culture. With brief bios of the architects and street maps pinpointing the location of each building, this book offers tourists, architects, history buffs, and preservationists a new context and appreciation for these works of art, many of which are endangered.

Batana Oil for Stronger, Fuller Hair
Scent: Bright Coffee, Size: 4.06 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this Batana Oil for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. From the very first use, my hair felt softer, more nourished, and noticeably healthier. The texture of the oil is rich but not overly heavy, which makes it easy to apply without weighing my hair down. What I love most is how it helps with dryness and frizz. My ends look less damaged, and my hair has a natural shine that I didn’t have before. I’ve also noticed less breakage when brushing, which is a huge plus. It feels like my hair is getting stronger over time. Another great thing is that a little goes a long way, so the jar lasts longer than expected. I like to use it as a scalp treatment and also as a leave-in on my ends, and it works perfectly both ways. If you’re looking for something to improve the overall health, thickness, and appearance of your hair, this Batana Oil is definitely worth trying. It gives that “salon-quality” feel right at home.
