A Cathedral Made from 55,000 LED Lights By Ben on Wed Feb 1 2012
A glowing cathedral like structure — dubbed the Luminarie De Cagna, was display at the 2012 Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium. “Soaring above the street at 91 feet high and using 55,000 LEDs to light up the night sky. The canopies and columns are created out of wood and the lights, and despite the jaw dropping light and color, the whole shebang only uses 20 kilowatts per hour of energy.”

HK War Games: Death Adder United Forces
Last weekend I organised for 16 of the boys from HK to do a day session of War Games in Sai Kung. For those who don’t know what War Games is – it’s like skirmish but you use high powered BB-Guns. That includes pistols, machine-guns, sniper rifles. Pretty much any real gun they use in the army you can get the replica in BB (airsoft) form. The majority of guys had never done it before so they were blown away by how real it feels being out on the different maps some more jungle style and other close quarters urban layouts. And let me tell you when you cop one of the BB pellets to the body. It bloody hurts! There were some serious war wounds by the end of the 5 hour session and a few games got personal between mates. But all in good fun. After the positive feedback from the day I’m currently organising another day out in a few weeks time. Here’s a group photo we took of the group that I retouched to look more like an old war photo.

The Sartorialist: Lunch for 25
The Sartorialist: Lunch for 25 from The Sartorialist on Vimeo.
I absolutely love this idea that Scott Schuman, otherwise known as The Sartorialist, has started as a “Lunch for 25″ series. Here’s what he had to say –
About a year ago, Scott and I were sitting at a small Trattoria in Florence. The place looked amazing– not only the simple and traditional decor, but also the irreproducible Italian atmosphere and overall elegance of the gentlemen.
“Doesn’t this place look like the best fashion story ever?” I asked Scott.
“Yes!” He said, “Real, cool, diverse– It’s like if all the best dressed guys I know got together for lunch….. We should just do that! Get my favorite guys together in one room, it would be so much fun. These guys have so much in common and yet, for most of them, their paths never cross. Just imagine, someone like Gianluca, with his dreadlocks and modern-minimalist aesthetic sitting next to Lino, with his old-school Italian charm…. Mr. Kurino and Simone Righi discussing their first suit, Kanye and Terron talking about whatever it is those two super funny characters could dream up… I’m just guessing, but I bet these guys would really hit it off. What a great way to forge new friendships.”
“Scott… You should do it!!!” the idea sounded fantastic to me.
And that’s what Scott did. I can tell you, I was so jealous not to be in Florence for The Inaugural Sartorialist Lunch. But, here are a few photographs and a video to let you share the first of what we hope will become a biannual event that grows every year through a continually increasing diversity of style and deepening camaraderie between friends.
Hope you enjoy,
Garance & Scott
*We would like to thank Simone and Guido in Florence for their helping to make this event happen, it would not have been the same without you.

Craig & Karl: Colourful Underground Car Park in Sydney
72DP’ is the latest in a string of large-scale mural and installation works created by sydney and new york-based design and illustration duo, craig & karl. The mural occupies the underground car park of an award-winning residence in sydney, Australia’s Darling Point by architects marsh cashman koolloos (MCK).
‘the objective of the project was to breathe new life into the space which, having been rendered in concrete with little inlet of natural light, felt quite dark and heavy. working closely with the owners, who possess a keen design sensibility, it was decided that the mural would cover all surfaces in a blanket of bright color. there was also a request that the larger wall surfaces be left blank with an eye towards potentially introducing additional, individually commissioned works at a future date. nevertheless it was vital that the installation feel and function as a complete work in its own right. the resulting design is a dynamic mix of overlapping geometric forms that mirror and respond to the angularity of the architecture. the whole piece is tied together by a winding, ribbon-style device which, acting as a central axis, leads in from the driveway, through the space and out to the garden beyond.’ – craig & karl

Blogging keeps me sane
There’s nothing I like better, than to finish the day posting new content to my blog. It gives me time to reflect on work I’ve done for the day and helps me channel my thoughts for concepts I’m currently working on. I found this old photo from last summer and thought I’d put it to good use and create another image link to my blog for Facebook.

Happy Chinese New Year 2012: May the Year of the Dragon bring you health, wealth and happiness!
This is the first time I’ve got to experience a Chinese New Year first hand in Hong Kong. It’s an amazing to see the visual displays around the city and hear all the cultural and family traditions that go on. This is an especially exciting year because it’s the year of the Dragon.
May the Year of the Dragon bring you health, wealth and happiness!
The only mythological creature in the Chinese zodiac, the dragon epitomises the yang (male/warm) energy. Those with the dragon as their animal sign are lively people who are straight to the point, proud, full of enthusiasm and have great passion for life. They are dynamic and stand out in a crowd as they are flamboyant and tend to leave a blazing trail behind them, igniting passion in some, but also scorching others who fall to ride the wave with them. Dragons are also profoundly loyal to family and friends and think nothing of laying their lives down to protect their brood. Although sincere and honest, dragons are known to act first, think later, and suffer in leisure. They can never keep their mouths shut, indulge in idle gossip and tend to believe they can take on just about anything. They can be eccentric and egotistical, demanding others to laugh at their jokes or laud that their actions. Intelligent and charismatic, but the dragon seldom applies its wisdom carefully and chooses to flirt with imagined grandeur instead.
The Chinese zodiac signs are determined by the lunar year in which you were born. The Chinese believe the animal ruling one’s birth year has a profound influence on personality, and destiny. The saying is: “This animal hides in your heart.”
