No Blank Walls

Juan Doe's MADE IN BROOKLYN show at Eastern District was fantastic. Here are a few (shitty iphone) clicks:

Yes, dude's nice.

We then strolled over to the conveniently located next door Ad Hoc Gallery for more visual ejaculation:
Check out the roster.

Mhhmmm.

Shuffle 'Em

Friday evening was a good time at UniWorld's GameNight.

There may have been some yelling - almost always followed by hugs, though.

Ahead?

Fashion Snapshion

(Photo courtesy of Wallpaper)

One of my favorite pages in fashion magazines is the page where they show what happens backstage at photo shoots and runway shows. Today I stumbled on to Wallpaper's fashion week coverage and found it to be a far more interesting view than the usual runway pictures we see on other sites. A little closer-up, a tad more angled, a slight glans at the model's personal expressions (yes, they have a few of their own) and a whole lot more fun!

Check out their whole backstage coverage of NYFW here. And London FW here.

A T L A S O N

Atlason's 'Princess' stool is made from a whole lamb, exposing the former life and current predicament of the animal. This is evident from the transition in the wool from the legs to the ‘back’.

Are you fucking kidding me?! No, they are not. There's more.....

The original hoofs were digitally recorded in 3D and then cast in silver, complementing the true details of the animal.

woah. How thorough. I just discovered ATLASON via Dwell magazine's March issue. Their site has a great range of amazingly clever work.

Here are a few:

...and last but not least, Victoria Butler's coatrack:

Absolutely beautiful.

Bobbi & Julie Sitting In A Treehouse

Last night i headed to Bushwick for Bobbi & Julie's 'Come Play With Us' house warming party.

These two geniuses, amongst other wonderful things, placed a massive plate of jerk chicken wings next to a plate of homemade frosted [ and sprinkled ] cupcakes.

Ha. I enjoyed that....them.

"happy new home" ladies.

Slip'N'Slide

This video was filmed for Wallpaper* Magazine:

The brief was simple: to build a house to retire to in order to grow food, entertain and enjoy the East Anglia landscape. The outcome was as unconventional as they come. A structure that has the ability to vary or connect the overall building's composition and character according to season, weather or simply a desire to delight. Wallpaper* took a trip to the site to capture the physical phenomenon in the only medium that serves it justice - film.
