C
Last summer,two nineteenthcentury cottages were rescued from remote farm fields in Montana,to be moved to an Art Deco building in San Francisco.The houses were made of wood.These cottages once housed early settlers as they worked the dry Montana soil;now they hold Twitter engineers.
The cottages could be an example of the industry's odd love affair with “low technology”, a concept associated with the natural world,and with oldschool craftsmanship(手艺) that exists long before the Internet era.Low technology is not virtual(虚拟的)—so,to take advantage of it,Internet companies have had to get creative.The rescued wood cottages,fitted by hand in the late eighteenhundreds,are an obvious example,but Twitter's designs lie on the extreme end.Other companies are using a broader interpretation(阐释) of low technology that focuses on nature.
