A major centre of Etruscan civilisation that was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004, the Necropolis stretches for more than two kilometres. This certainly makes it the most imposing in all Etruria and one of the most magnificent monuments of its kind anywhere in the Mediterranean basin. These monumental tombs are located inside tumuli, partly cut into the tufa rock and partly built over it. The purpose of these edifices was to illustrate the desire of a handful of aristocratic families to make a statement about their wealth and to perpetuate a lifestyle of the highest quality also after death.
On the outskirts of Cape Town, South Africa, in the chaotic context of the Khayelitsha district where the expansion of informal settlements runs unchecked, the Thusong Civic Center designed by Mokena Makeka of Makeka Design Lab represents a move towards making architecture a human right for all a tool for helping to improve peoples’ lives. The Center is part of ongoing attempts to integrate Khayelitsha into Cape Town, after years of segregation resulted in a sprawling settlement with little access to government services. Makeka designed a simple and sustainable architecture that aims to give a sense of permanence in a region where everything appears transitory and fragile, offering residents much-needed social and educational resources like sports grounds, offices, exhibition spaces, and an urban public park. Makeka Design Lab is one of over 100 firms taking part in the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial this fall.

The building on the left of that Hawaii pic looks a bit like Milan's Velasca Tower, though a bit more sensible.
