Natsko Seki’s Four Seasons

Posted in Art, Illustration, tagged , on April 30, 2010 | 6 Comments »

My favourite pieces, however, were Natski Seki’s ‘Four Seasons’.  [...]

La Trufa

A concrete hideaway in Spain made by pouring concrete over hay bales and then allowing a cow (named Paulina) to eat away the hay. Seriously. Watch the whole thing being built here.  It’s amazing. Images by owner Roland Halbe, architect Antón García-Abril. Via Abitare.

Villa Necchi Campiglio

Finally saw I AM LOVE over the weekend.  Ooh, the opulence!  The melodrama!  The passion!  Definitely worth seeing. The 1930′s, Art Deco villa from the film practically steals the show (I say ‘practically’, because nothing can really be stolen from Tilda Swinton.)  But it’s a breathtaking piece of architecture, nonetheless.  The actual location is Villa [...]

These canvas bags from Mariners Supply Company in Cornwall have got it all.  They’re simple, sturdy, well-priced and design classics. AND you know they’ll last because they’re based on traditional designs for fishermen and sailors. Brilliant.  They really make me want to be on a boat near a beach. Via Design*Sponge.

Cut & Paste

This limited edition collection of curiosities by Kiki van Eijk and Secondome is stunningly conceived.  I just love the combination of shapes, colours and materials. They’re so surreal that they’re practically impossible to describe – (for example: ‘A half circular white shiny shape with 2 little half circular mirrors covers the other half of the [...]
