Architecture

In my opinion, this is the work of one of the most influential and innovative architects of this century, Toyo Ito. Amazing.

Creations by Frederique Morrel

This husband and wife team travel from region to region scouting out the rare pieces from which to make their next masterpiece from. Their philosophy:
" We do not like this world. Art asks questions. Artifacts are our personal answer designed to re-enchant the world using our special ingrediants; materials that tell stories of simple, ideal happiness."



Look at this chappy, I will definitely be re-creating one of these for my kitty, Frankie.



Zebra Wallpaper



My new favourite movie of the moment,(even though it was released in 2002) The Royal Tanenboums, has provided me with more then just an interest in intelligent and weird geniuses but also a richly-authentic wallpaper depicting leaping zebras pursued by arrows. It is seen in the bedroom & bathroom of Margot who once ran away from home and came back with half of one of her fingers missing.The infamously secretive character is potrayed well with this iconic background, suffice to say that it's unlikely you'll see a better or more unique movie for a long time.
