Well Rounded (Issue 3)
Article recommendations on well being, idea, culture, and design.
Idea: Are You The Same Person You Were When You Were a Child? from The New Yorker
“If we could see our childish selves more clearly, we might have a better sense of the course and the character of our lives. Are we the same people at four that we will be at twenty-four, forty-four, or seventy-four? Or will we change substantially through time?”
Well Being: The Best Therapy for Our Anxiety Epidemic from The Atlantic
“I believe a deeper philosophical problem affects the lives of young people today as well, and of many people who are no longer young. Folks lack a sense of meaning; they don’t feel they know the “why” of their lives. […] here is how to apprehend and address it.”
Society: A Tale of Two Londons from Vanity Fair
“Who really lives at One Hyde Park, called the world’s most expensive residential building? Its mostly absentee owners, hiding behind offshore corporations based in tax havens, provide a portrait of the new global super-wealthy.”
Design: Rebranding Glossier, My Way from Dabbling by Annie Dabir on Substack
“I would like to see Glossier redefine “American girl beauty” a niche that has not quite been filled! Though they may deny it, Glossier is sort of a quintessential American brand, and it should lean that way.”
