Happy Halloween! I'm off to go hunting for a few weeks.. Will be back soon.. Might post a few if I can find a computer in the woods.. Laters..

Grab yourself a copy of Vapors Issue #36.. Articles on Sneaker Pimps/Christian Hosoi/The Social Trust.. and regulars like 365t and the like..

Toyo Ito has updated the Ripple.. from bench.. to dining set.. Another beautiful incarnation..

Stephen Wiltshire is a very gifted autistic.. He can visually take a whole scene into memory and translate it back onto paper with amazing detail.. Here his photographic memory re-creates Tokyo's city-scape.. Simply amazing work..

I think I'd eat more if my spoon was a plane.. Nice..

Got news from my man C.. that Freshjive will be releasing their Monsters of Madness Series.. Inspired from metal, monsters, mayhem and the military.. This mad collection will be on shelves for early November.. Nice..

Here are my  Top 3 Classic Rally Cars of All Time:

1-> The Audi Quattro.. For its introduction of all-wheel drive to the sport.. it's all out dominance..

2-> The Lancia Stratos.. Designed specifically for rallying.. And by being the best damn looking rally car ever..

3-> The Ford RS200.. For it's radical design.. Including it's crazy turbo powered 650hp/4cylinder engine.. 0-60 2.8 seconds..

Industrial designers bkm design/create some very nice products.. Like the Buchhalter 3.. Which is a bookend, table shelf and reading desk in one.. As well as the T72.. A symbiotic relationship between light and table.. Where the table acts as a dimmer for the light..

I like the way the helve chair and footstool nest into each other when the footstool in not in use.. Saves space.. Nice and clean.. Made of upholstered plywood and foam..

A really cool vehicle has just gotten better.. The cabin-cycle Ecomobile has evolved into the Monotracer.. It's the same concept in a better looking package.. The looks/performance now match the price.. Composite-monocoque body with reinforced crash and roll bars.. Gull-wing door with integrated sunroof.. 200litre baggage compartment.. 4 cylinder BMW K-engine.. Reverse gear.. Recaro seats with 3-point safety belts.. A/C and heating ventilation.. GPS and audio system.. Cruise.. Front airbag..
O-100km in 5.7sec.. Top speed at 250km/h.. 52,500euros.. Really nice..

Here's a nice minimalistic fm desk radio.. Central volume/frequency unit housed in smooth lucite.. Radiates a subtle glow when in use.. Simple.. Beautiful..

In the not so distant future.. we'll be able to rock multiple looks with just one outfit.. I love watching the videos of Hussein Chalayan's transformer clothes in action.. I wonder if sound effects come included?..

10.6.2006
Check the Terratag Kamon Series Tees.. Traditional Japanese heraldic symbols (same symbols you'll find on samurai suits of armor).. Overlaid with art/photos/graf that reflect contemporary Japanese culture..

10.4.2006
The Origami Magazine by Chie Tahara is a playful way to read a magazine.. Instead of your boring front->back read.. You get to read the different articles as you fold away.. And when you're done reading.. the by-product is a finished piece of art.. Nice..

The Encore online magazine->October issue is now available for your perusal.. Very interesting articles/images on Typotag.. Simplicity->The art of complexity.. Film->458.. Illustration-> Johannes Koenig.. and mucho-mucho more.. Enjoy..

And
If you're like me.. And think that Carbon Fiber Is Rad.. Then you'll want to frequent this site..

10.2.2006
I like the concept of the Pelican by Bertrand Clerc.. Mimicking the distensible bill of the pelican.. the chair stretches as the user sits into the seat.. Creating a confortable custom fit..

This one's all over the internet like a crazy wildfire.. But I can't pass on it.. Cuz it's just too beauty-full.. The Lamborghini Murcielago Versace edition is a rolling model of gorgeousness.. What sets it apart from the regular versions is the custom Isis-white paint.. And the Versace fret-symbols tastefully placed in strategic areas of the car.. Nice..
