I LOVE UGLY's Studio

Highsnobiety Magazine visited menswear label studio I LOVE UGLY in terms of their Highsnobiety Visits. We are pretty jealous of them having the experience to meet people of the label and take awesome photos of their space. "Based in Mount Eden, New Zealand, the primarily black space has been home to ILU for three and a half years and perfectly reflects the feel and style of the brand – the black walls are also present throughout all their flagship stores. Originally the building was used as a shared creative space, housing several different artists and other creative agencies. To encourage collaboration, the workspace is fairly open in an effort to promote the sharing of ideas. However, the design and marketing departments are segregated from the rest of the business, and every month or two they switch everything around to promote fresh thinking."

Photo Manipulations by Joseph Alexander

LA-based photographer Joseph Alexander creates impressive images with a strong emphasis on photo manipulation and retouching. Joseph explores androgyny and intersexual themes - not only gender but also something more of an inter-species. He again uses negative space, simple composition and lots of colour. via

Miniatures by Satoshi Araki

Satoshi Araki's obsessive attention to detail makes his work simply stunning. If it wasn't for the reference of the finger that appears in some of the pictures, it would be very hard to distinguish these miniature dioramas from real pictures of garbage dumps, bombed cities, or abandoned neighbourhoods.

Goodwood Revival 2014

Goodwood Revival was a thriller once again this year, with highly competitive racing, grids full of important, rare and exotic racing cars, and of course a wonderful crowd of beautifully turned-out entrants, enthusiasts and fans who help turn the Motor Circuit into a little slice of petrolhead heaven for three days every year.

A Renovated Blacksmith's Warehouse

This stunning old blacksmith's warehouse has been converted with lots of light wood, bright white walls and concrete floor. It's the second home of Dorte Mandrup-Poulsen and two other Danish architects (Louis Becker and Jens Thomas Arnfred). “It’s important when you convert an old building to be careful not to remove the soul of what was there. If everything is renewed, it becomes too perfect,” Dorte says. Therefore they preserved the blacksmith equipment, like the traditional iron stove, old metal tables and the original iron windows, which are among her favorite features because they frame the seaside views throughout the home. Imperfections tell the history of this home.

Burning Man 2014 Moments by Trey Ratcliff

Embrace was a 72 ft wooden, cathedral-like sculpture of two human figures, “in celebration of all our relationships”. The site-specific artwork was created by the Pier Group for Burning Man 2014.It was the largest project to date for the Pier Group, which gained acclaim for its previous Burning Man installations The Pier, Pier 2, and the Ichthyosaur Puppet Project. Crews began construction on Embrace in October 2013 at the Generator community art space in Reno, and in studios in Vancouver and Portland. During this year’s festival the massive wooden sculpture was set aflame and Trey Ratcliff was on hand to capture the incredible moment. Below you can see what the interactive sculpture looked like before it was burned. You can also see a video tour of the interior here. For more information check out the official Website and Facebook page. via

Cliff House concept by Modscape

Living on the edge has never been so close until we found this Cliff House concept designed by Australian architects at Modscape

From the website: "A five storey modular home clings to the side of a cliff in this conceptual design by Modscape. The Cliff House is a design response for Emma and David, a couple who approached Modscape to explore design options for a holiday home on an extreme parcel of land they own on the south-west coast of Victoria. Inspired by the way barnacles cling to the hull of a ship, a concept was developed for a modular home to hang off the side of a cliff as opposed to sitting on top of it. The home is visualised as a natural extension of the cliff face rather than an addition to the landscape, creating an absolute connection with the ocean. As the design itself would make conventional construction prohibitive, the concept utilises Modscape’s modular design and prefabrication technologies to deliver a series of stacked modules that are anchored into the cliff face using engineered steel pins. Entry to the home is through a carport on the top floor, where a lift vertically connects you through each of the descending living spaces. Internally, the living spaces feature minimalistic furnishings to ensure that the transcendent views of the ocean and the unique spatial experience of the location remain the integral focal point of the design."

Parisian rooftops photographed by Michael Wolf

"For a photographer living in a major city filled with iconic architecture, museums, and myriad tourist destinations, the struggle to capture an authentic image is great. This was the exact situation photographer Michael Wolf found himself in after moving to Paris from Hong Kong in 2008. Surrounded in a city filled with sights that could easily be interpreted as cliché, Wolf pointed his camera away from the recognizable landmarks and instead focused on the dense rooftops surrounding the city. Packed with stout chimneys, tv antennas, graffiti, and numerous geometric forms, these shots present a strange abstracted view of a usually recognizable place." text by Colossal

Food Art by Dina Belenko

Russian self-taught photographer Dina Belenko creates alluring still life images which she calls “photoillustrations”. Combining creative and well arranged compositions with photography and a little bit of photo manipulation skills, Belenko creates beautiful food photography starring various inanimate objects: food products, utensils and other props.

I prefer still life because the role of chance is incredibly limited here. You may feel as a director < …> Each failure is your own failure, but every victory is also completely yours.

Belenko is participating in an ongoing project called “An Endless Book”. Each week, participants have to upload an artwork under a self-selected topic. At the end of 2015, a huge panoramic image will be made featuring all of their works. You can read more about it at the official website.
