There is no doubt that David Lynch has had a profound impact on video games. In the wake of his death in January 2025, game developers were among the many who paid homage to him and cited him as inspiration for their work.

Diablo 4's Season of Witchcraft has added several new Unique Items to the game, including powerful entries to the Necromancer's kit like Indira's Memory. Indira's Memory is a great item for players looking to focus on either Bone Spear or Blood Wave, and even makes it into a BiS for one of the classes' best endgame builds.

Dutch social venture Shift has launched a 250,000 competition calling for designs for "a new wonder of the world" to promote action against climate change.Shift's ambition is to build a new world wonder on all seven continents, with the first planned for the Netherlands.Dutch entrepreneur and Shift founder Don Ritzen envisions this world wonder as a cutting-edge example of sustainable materials and construction.He believes it should create awe on a par with structures like the Eiffel Tower in Paris or the Petra Temple in Jordan."A beacon of hope for human ingenuity""The goal is to create a landmark that breaks from traditional notions and functions, and exists as a beacon of hope for human ingenuity and collective action," said Ritzen.The competition brief calls for an architectural landmark that inspires and educates people to join the fight againstthe climate and biodiversity crisis."While 75 per cent of Europeans are concerned about climate change, only 10 per cent are taking meaningful action," stated Ritzen, citing stats from the European Commission and Dutch research institute PBL."I truly believe that it is going to take a new wonder of the world to grab people's attention and inspire them to action," he said.Shift is a social venture founded by Dutch entrepreneur Don RitzenThe 250,000 prize fund will be shared among five shortlisted entrants; each will receive 40,000, with an additional 50,000 awarded to the winner.Two of the shortlist spots will be awarded to invited entrants one major architecture firm and one emerging studio while the other three will be selected from the open call.A group of Dutch investors are funding the competition, while the judging panel includes Nieuwe Instituut director Aric Chen, UNStudio founder Ben van Berkel and Hot or Cool Insitute director Lewis Akenji.Shift intends to realise the design somewhere in the Netherlands but there is no fixed location at this stage. By keeping this open, the company hopes to encourage a wider range of ideas.Read: Three designs addressing housing shortages revealed as Davidson Prize finalistsThe design could take the form of a building or another type of installation. It could be a new build or a reimagination of an existing structure.Once built, it would host a programme curated by Shift with the aim of engaging up to one million visitors a year.Ritzen thinks that human behaviour is the main obstacle to reversing climate change. He believes the required solutions have already been developed; they just need to be adopted at scale."We have choices that can be adopted and massively scaled up," he said."Create the sense of urgency needed"Ritzen previously co-founded investment company Rockstart and has experience guiding tech startups to success.Although Shift is set up as a steward-owned social venture, Ritzen intends for it to be similarly disruptive."With Shift, I have created a platform dedicated to giving these solutions, and the people behind them, the same amount of positivity, energy and attention often given to the typical tech startup," he said."By consolidating the most promising climate initiatives, activists and entrepreneurs onto a single platform and space, we can shift the conversation from complacency and powerlessness to create the sense of urgency needed for massive climate and sustainable action."The deadline for competition entries is 5 March, with the shortlist set to be announced in April.Climate initiatives were also at the forefront at the most recent Dutch Design Week, as seen in our roundup of its six main trends.In the US, Madrid architecture studio Ecosistema Urbano created a modular tower withstacks ofnative plantsto mitigate the effects ofclimate changein urban areas.The post Architecture competition calls for designs for "a new world wonder" appeared first on Dezeen.

Paris-based Atelier du Pont has teamed up with Menorca-based Aru Arquitectura to convert a pair of dilapidated old farm buildings into a summer house with a surprising mix of colours and textures.Estancia San Jos is the vacation home of a mother and daughter, set amidst 76 hectares of Menorcan countryside.The renovation involved converting a traditional stone barn and the adjoining farmhouse.Pivoting glass doors replicate the arched shape of an original windowThe result is a four-bedroom home with a rustic aesthetic and contemporary details including pivoting doors and an acid-yellow kitchen."It was a complete ruin and we brought it back to life," said Atelier du Pont's founders, Anne-Ccile Comar and Philippe Croisier."We preserved the character of both buildings but reimagined the entire space," they told Dezeen.A light-filled living room was created in the former barnThe owners approached Comar and Croisier after seeing theirdesign for Son Blanc, a Menorcan hotel that also involved converting a former farm building.Both mother and daughter have spent most of their lives moving around the world. They wanted to create a base where they could spend their holidays together.Acid-yellow tiles feature in the kitchenKeen to work with a local partner, Comar and Croisier invited Aru Arquitectura to collaborate.Their design draws on the traditional materials and craft techniques of the Balearic island while also referencing some of the other places its owners have called home, including Africa, the Middle East and Patagonia.The stone walls and terracotta flooring offer texture"The owners gave us carte blanche to imagine the interior concept and the different atmospheres in keeping with the spirit of the place," Comar and Croisier explained."We were keen to pay homage to Minorcan savoir-faire and incorporate typical elements such as different types of rendering, textures and wall finishes," they said.Textile details include handwoven headboardsIn the new layout, the former barn becomes a light-filled living space with bedrooms slotted in behind.This barn originally had just one window, an arched doorway that would have been used to bring livestock in and out.The architects added a series of matching openings along the rest of the facade, incorporating the pivoting doors.Read: Emma Mart celebrates Menorca's architectural heritage in Hevresac HotelIn the old house, three small rooms were opened up to create a generous kitchen.The property also includes a hammam and a large outdoor swimming pool.The property includes four bedroomsNatural materials and textures feature throughout, from the rough stone walls of the old barn to the terracotta brickwork that provides internal flooring and external patios.Much of the material palette takes cues from existing colours and details for instance, the acid-yellow tiles in the kitchen reference a faded yellow ceiling from one of the old rooms.The architects favoured handmade fixtures wherever possibleOther key details include iroko wood joinery, handwoven headboards and custom-designed bedside tables and side tables in terracotta and rope."The work of the hand is also always present and deliberately left visible," said Comar and Croisier.A swimming pool was installed as part of the worksMenorca is less established as a tourist destination than Mallorca and Ibiza, the two larger Balearic Islands, but has been increasing in popularity since major art gallery Hauser & Wirth opened an outpost here.Other recent homes built here include Shift House and Bundle House, both by locally based Nomo Studio, and the minimalist Casa E, designed by Marina Senabre.Estancia San Jos's owners plan to rent their house to holidaymakers when they are not using it.The photography is by Maria Missaglia.The post Menorca farmhouse converted into vacation home with acid-yellow kitchen appeared first on Dezeen.

Even before turntables and instant cameras became fashionable again, the gaming industry has already been obsessed with old-school design. Whether its actually playing those classic titles or creating new games in a pixelated retro style, both gamers and designers have been harnessing the power of nostalgia to craft products that connect generations of people and keep the history of gaming alive.Sometimes its not just the games themselves but even the merchandise that pulls at the heartstrings of fans of these cherished games. This watch, for example, might not actually let you play the iconic Asteroids game (which sounds like an idea for a smartwatch app), but it does bring not only the charm of those amorphous objects representing colliding asteroids, it even recreates the rather chaotic atmosphere of the game as well.Designers: Atari x NubeoAfter Pong, Asteroids was arguably one of the most iconic first titles that graced the gigantic arcade cabinets in the youth of the gaming industry. Its graphics and concept were simple, but its mechanics could be unforgiving. You basically shoot down asteroids and UFOs passing by that may collide with you, all with very limited moving capabilities. It can get pretty messy quickly, with a random assortment of objects filling the large screen. Now imagine all those in a circle small enough to sit on your wrist.Thats the adrenaline-pumping atmosphere that the limited edition Ventana Automatic watches are trying to convey every time you try to look at the time. Celebrating the games 45th anniversary, this Atari Asteroids watch brings all the familiar elements of the game and shrinks it down to a scale that, if it were actually a game, would be a sordid mess.The triangular ship in the center moves to track the passing of each second, while two UFOs, colored differently from the asteroids, mark the minutes and hours using a unique layered disc system that rotates concentric circles instead of moving hands. This element adds a distinctive flair to the watch that easily sets it apart from more serious-looking timepieces.The Ventana Automatic Atari Asteroids watch is powered by a Japanese automatic movement. The graphic elements are printed with Swiss Super-LumiNova, giving the watch an eerie glow in the dark. Available in Nova Nightfall, Plasma Pumpkin, Nebula Blue, Supernova Red, and Celestial Citrine colors, the limited edition watch will be something that gaming history fans and collectors might want to quickly reach for while supplies last.The post Atari x Nubeo limited edition Watches bring the chaos of Asteroids to your wrist first appeared on Yanko Design.

States are using higher registration fees for electric cars to make up for declining fuel taxes, but some are punitive, environmentalists say. A federal tax could be coming.
