Flora by Gucci

These are some frames of the Flora by Gucci spot,
no longer contemporary but still fashinating.
Not surprising the fact that behind this less-than-a-minute video
there is a great director and artist: Chris Cunningham.

The Jeff Death

If you are illustration lovers as I am, you should decidedly
take a look to Matt Lee drawings, really personal style,
definitely original character.
This is the The Jeff Death series.

Timothy Basil Ering

I'm attending a children's books illustration course in this period
and every session the teacher bring us some books to look at.
During the last lesson I have seen for the firs time works by this illustrator called Timothy Basil Ering (here it is his site) which are, in my personal point of view, simply wonderful, both the style and techniques.

Cosy kitchen

As often happens Design*Sponge posted something I really love.
Like this colored, cosy and "genuine" kitchen, I almost want to cook something now looking at it!

Poppi by Emigre

Have you ever seen this font? It's Poppi by Emigre.
I really like it, hilarious and so powerful at the same time.

Sweets from Camden Town

Markets are surely one of the most interesting and almost unique
places of London.
There you can find every kind of goods as well as every kind of food.
This is what my sister's eye catches last time we went in Camden Town.


Helen Musselwhite

Paper, paper, paper! How many lovely things could be done with paper.
Look at these, for instance, from the Helen Musselwhite's portfolio.

Mission at Harrods 2

In the previous post I uploaded some nice candy packaging from Harrods. But how not to mention and show the tea ones? Take a look below.







Mission at Harrods

After a couple of days of break I come back to my blog with some nice stuff.
The last weekend my family was here in London to visit me.
As the most respectable turists we had our usual mission in Harrods.
Obviously it is not the place where I go for shopping in London but there is an area which I absolutely love: the Food Halls. Tens of showcases with every kind of goodness, from chocolate to lobster, presented and exhibited as they were jewels. (and actually, what have them less than jewels?)
If you look, for example, at sweets, they are also wrapped in
delightful packaging that makes me become a candy-lover which I definitely am not.
But they are so well designed and so cute!

Nice and healthy food

This course makes me feel really hungry!
But it would be almost a pity to ruin this nice composition of healthy food!

Eva Milinkovic's vases

I know the shape is quite unusual but I really like these vases
by Eva Milinkovic.
Right colors and curves create harmonious and elegant shapes.

Si Scott

I really love the illustration style of this artist.
He is Si Scott and you can see more of his works at this link.

A Single Man

A beautiful movie.

A remarkable Colin Firth.

Drake Brodahl

I have just discovered this skilled illustrator.
His name is Drake Brodahl and these are some of his really nice and cute creations.
Take a look to the site.







Perfect designer's rooms

I haven't had yet the possibility to choose the forniture for the place where I live, but when I will I'll definitely want to have a drawing board and a bookcase like these!

Julian Beever

The images below are some of the several masterpieces by Julian Beever.
It's not easy to find out what is the name of this definitely talented street artist, but surely when you discover him and his works you'll feel completely stunned by the beauty of these drawings.

Big Fish

I have just found by chance a scene of one of the nicest movies
I've ever seen: Big Fish.
When I have seen it, for the first time in my life I thought
that I loved the movie more than the book (Daniel Wallace).
I was not surprise when I discovered that the Big Fish director was
Tim Burton, one of my favourites. From "Nightmare before Christmas"
to "Alice in Wonderland" he's always able to create amazing lanscapes
and characters and being neither repetitive nor boring.

But let's give part of the merit also to
actors as Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter which presence characterized a lot of his movies.




Brendan Wenzel

I have just found this hilarious bird from the work of Brendan Wenzel.
Really nice and delicate way of drawing for a remarkable result.

Amanda Visell

This is one of the amazing wood sculptures by Amanda Visell,
a rabbit-shape tree with its cute-pirate-micro fortress on.

NO TRASH NYC 2030

Take a look at this.
A gust of hope.
And a message to our responsabilities.

NO TRASH NYC 2030 from IDEO on Vimeo.

We have a strategic plan

Not such a good design poster but I do really appreciate the statement.
Sometimes we would have just to do things instead to wait for a solution.

Sushi poufs

Nice and funny sushi-shape poufs!
Obviously they aren't suitable for every kind of home but I like them!
