The sophisticated exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system uses a cooled low-pressure circuit in addition to a high-pressure circuit reducing pumping losses and peak combustion temperatures to help reduce the formation of NOx in the cylinders.

Having a 4,000mAh battery, Honor 8C is targeted at users who don’t really like to hook up their smartphones to chargers every night. I used this smartphone with that expectation in mind, and I’m glad it didn’t disappoint.

Here’s a photo of the Nolan helmet showroom, which features one of every Nolan, X-Lite and Grex helmet made by Nolan:

Since joining Apple, Ive has occasionally taken on outside projects. In 2001, he created a white polystyrene box to house a book by Paul Smith. In 2013, an aluminum desk that Ive and Newson designed for the Project Red auction sold for $1.7 million. And Ive once sat next to J. J. Abrams at a boozy dinner party in New York, and made what Abrams recalled as “very specific” suggestions about the design of lightsabres. Abrams told me that “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” would reflect those thoughts, but he wouldn’t say how. After the release of the film’s first trailer—which featured a fiery new lightsabre, with a cross guard, and a resemblance to a burning crucifix—I asked Ive about his contribution. “It was just a conversation,” he said, then explained that, although he’d said nothing about cross guards, he had made a case for unevenness: “I thought it would be interesting if it were less precise, and just a little bit more spitty.” A redesigned weapon could be “more analog and more primitive, and I think, in that way, somehow more ominous.”

Asked how much Treetop is spending on the capital improvements, Taylor’s boss Felix Reyes implied it was well over $1 million. 

As for Kurant, and other bars and restaurants that line the west part of Girard, Dowall says there’s no telling when the saturation point for that kind of business will hit.

I was sent a case for my Pixel 2 XL carved out of cherry. As soon as I took the case out of its packaging, I was greeted with a strong whiff of the classic wood smell that I can still smell on it today. Putting my phone in took less fanfare than I’d imagined; all it took was pushing the phone straight into the case, at which point it’s held in by friction from the suede lining. This is necessary since wood can’t flex as much as plastic. However, this also means that if you drop your phone facedown, it could be slightly forced out of the case into the ground since the lip doesn’t really wrap around the front, even if it does provide adequate clearance for a glass screen protector.

I asked Jeff Williams, the senior vice-president, if the Apple Watch seemed more purely Ive’s than previous company products. After a silence of twenty-five seconds, during which Apple made fifty thousand dollars in profit, he said, “Yes.”

With no clue whether the pulley would work or not, they secured it to the rafters, strung a rope through it, and pulled the staircase up to sit on the second floor, where—miraculously—they were able to get it secured.

The foundation became their love child. It is unlike the eye-popping art gallery Frank Gehry designed for the Louis Vuitton Foundation beside the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, with its billowing glass sails, conjuring up flounces of silk and memories of Bilbao. The Prada campus feels, by comparison, world-weary, sneakily luxurious and — especially with its new tower — a mini-city, fragmentary, full of craft and secrets. Cities enshrine history and agitate for change. They’re forever unresolved.
