"This american artist has an impressive talent and a great technique when it comes to shooting. Working as a lifestyle photographer and capturing essence of products for Nike or Lincoln cars, his talent does not go away when Jared tries to shoot scenes where nothing but nature is the master. And when he’s not busy creating master pieces out of silent hills or foggy mounts, he let his camera and his creative mind discover urban landscapes and beautiful portraits."

Marija Puipaite Lithuanian designer inspired by physicality, in love with tangible matter and suffering from visual fetishism.Embracing the Touch is a project about designer’s relation with the works and designer’s presence in them. Design is a matter, tangible and desirable, that carries meaning in itself, in its body. It’s what you understand and experience through physicality. It’s like a garment that you can try on, see how it looks on you. The same way you project yourself through someone else.

Goat is a practical and sustainable coffee mug, paying homage to the goats that discovered coffee. Its horn shape not only tells the original story of coffee but also helps you drink the last sip and makes you look good (I bet guys know the thing about Georgian festive tradition of drinking wine from horns). The leather holder simply turns into a coffee mug stand, so you can easily keep the mug on your desk. Designed by Slovenian Desnahemisfera studio and available for preorder on Kickstarter Project (just reserved one for myself:)

The expansion of European wine culture to Asia have not been that huge so far as during the last decade. The juxtaposition of classic winery and asian food went very well, and inspired a lot of urban food points. St.Petersburg-based happy three friends were no exception to open a new bar with a tricky name of "Wong Kar Wine" that has mixed up the love to good wine, movies and asian food at one place. Guys asked Plan-S23 design studio to create the space, and without any doubts Maxim Scherbakov and Kate Tolstykh did their best. The clean-shaped bar furniture has been created by VERSTAK Studio and unique wooden panels - by PROKK. So it happens that the full trio of studios came from Saint-Petersburg what make a big sense when speaking about local Russian design.
"Kersti K is an art and fashion photographer based in Malmö, Sweden. Her images are pretty authentic and emotionally rich that pushes viewers to ask themselves "what is the story here?". Lately we come across to similar style of photography around but in this crowd her works are definitely worth watching. Hidden faces, mirrors, vintage decorations, retro clothing, experimental frames, and calm but strong tones and light." via Joquz
Graphic designer Sarah Brockett created the project Bold Bakery, an unconventional bakery that stuffs its cakes and cookies with sarcasm and sass instead of cream and sugar.
Though it’s branding may make it appear cute and friendly, the Bold Bakery is not where you want to purchase Grandma’s birthday cake from. It is, however, the perfect place to have a pie created for your cheating husband, or your bratty pre-teen daughter. This establishment simply oozes with sarcasm and sass. Don’t have anyone on your “shit list”? That’s okay. Plenty of our customers partake in “cake wars”, where they gift their friends with raunchy baked goods for no reason at all. Sometimes a little crude humor and chocolate cake is all you need to get by in life

The so called Supermoon – the lunar occurrence on March 19th, 2011 in which the moon appeared 14% bigger and 30% brighter – shined down on the people of Japan, inspiring them to believe, and have hope for, rebuilding what they had lost just over a week ago. The Moon is a topographically-accurate LED light that was created based on data retrieved from the Japanese lunar orbiter spacecraft Kaguya, designed by Nosinger Design Team from Japan
