Sneak Peek : NYC Rooftops

What do you usually do during a flight?
Do you read a book ?
Listen to some music ?
I can't wait for the time the plane is so close to earth that you can see all the rooftops of the city!
So you can easily imagine how I felt when I bumped into this post.
Excited.

Jwilly's photostream on flickr
gives you a glimpse of what is above the sky-scrapping madness
in New York.
I hope you enjoy this post as much as I did.

Just let me live there.

I wanted to show you this bed for over a month.
I'm officially obsessed with it.
Happy Tuesday.

Ralph Lauren knows how to celebrate.

Now, that's what I call a party.
Ralph Lauren staged a “four-dimensional” light installation on Wednesday night at its flagship locations
in New York and London
to celebrate its 10 year digital innovation.
New Bond Street experienced a so-called fourth dimension show with a series of additional sensory effects,
including sound (music), touch (breezes)
and smell (wafts of the brand’s fragrance collection),
timed in sequence with the show.
Wish I was there.
Enjoy

Oh my, my ring came to life.

My first "contact" with Haffstein Juliusson was during a flight from Athens to London.
I read an article about him on a magazine and when I returned back home I googled him.
So if you aren't already familiar with his work , let me introduce you to a 25 year old industrial/Interior designer from Iceland.

• In january 2009 he established HAF company by Hafsteinn Juliusson
• This company is based in Reykjavík, Iceland and in Milano, Italy
• He is fascinated by simple things with fun solutions
  
• He is living and working in Milano, Italy

Haffstein Juliusson & Growing Jewelry project

"Growing Jewelry is a redefinition of modern values.The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life."

Lanvin for H&M[en]!

Can't wait for the Lanvin & H&M collaboration .
Alber Elbaz & Lucas Ossendrijver (thank god I don't have to pronounce this name) did their best
and the result is pretty glorious!
A post dedicated to my male friends.

Shoebox Art

There are 2 types of people.

• People that buy a new pair of shoes, then keep the shoes and throw away the shoebox.

• People that buy a new pair of shoes and keep the box forever.

I also know somebody who wrote a book about a Shoebox.
But to make art out of it?

I belong to the people that keep the shoebox.
I don't know why, sometimes I tend to reuse them as jewelry boxes but it never occurred me that Shoebox was an artistic material.
A few months ago Bryan Adams Foundation and Kids Company hosted
"Shoebox Art"
a unique auction of art from leading artists.
Each artist tried to
recreate a room from their childhood inside a shoebox.

These are my favorite shoe boxes:

Artist: Linder Sterling

Title: Mother's Hour

Materials : dolls | fabric flower | glamour mirror | scouring pads



Artist: Paul Hazelton

Title: Table Tornado

Materials: Household dust
