The Story Behind Ferrari’s Logo
Great watch to see the history and origin of the Ferrari logo –
“The horse was painted on the fuselage of the fighter plane of Francesco Baracca — a heroic airman of the first world war. In ’23, I met count Enrico Baracca, the hero’s father, and then his mother, countess Paulina, who said to me one day, ‘Ferrari, put my son’s prancing horse on your cars. It will bring you good luck’. The horse was, and still is, black, and I added the canary yellow background which is the colour of Modena.”
adidas Office Interior by KINZO
The adidas headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany has had a facelift. The 1,700 staff members moved into an amazing new work space that features intertwining glass walkways made to mimic the laces of a sneaker. Berlin design company KINZO set out to create something that would reflect adidas inside and out. The “Teamplayer” space is at the heart of the new design, supporting desktops, storage and creating a multi-functional room that looks like it’s zoned into honeycombs. In other words, the KINZO design team have created a space within a space. It lets separate teams have a specific section, but not be completely cut off from the other groups working inside the “Teamplayer”. The entire WORKOUT furniture system is designed specifically to meet the needs of the team, and work together as a system, rather than functioning as just individual pieces. German furniture specialist Planmöbel partnered with KINZO to create environmentally friendly, functional furniture sealed with a monolithic surface and a powder-coated finish.

New Zealand All Blacks: all heroes
HBTV: New Zealand All Blacks – all heroes from HBTV on Vimeo.
“all heroes” – a creative concept developed by Auckland’s Qubic Store and adidas Originals for New Zealand’s national rugby team, the legendary ‘All Blacks.’ A 128-year-old sporting franchise and ranked number one internationally, the All Blacks enjoy a fearsome reputation amongst their competitors and hold a mystical fascination for fans worldwide through iconic symbols like the Haka and the Silver Fern.
Directed by Frank Liew of Qubic Store and Sean Wallace of Eyeball Moving Image, the “all heroes” short film features four of the most iconic contemporary All Blacks to ever take to the field and explores the aura of the team as interpreted by Auckland-based illustrator and artist Elliot F. Stewart.
“all heroes” also features a sneak preview of a limited run adidas Originals x Qubic Store x All Blacks Campus 80s shoe, the first-ever adidas Originals licensed shoe with the All Blacks due for release later this month.

Androp ‘Bell’ Interactive Music Video
Japanese band, Androp, breaks out from the mold with an interactive music video for their single ‘Bell’. Created by creative company, Party, listeners are given an opportunity to be part of the music video as they play the game.
Found at the Androp site, you are able to create an animal, which varies from a rabbit to an elephant depending on the number of words you type in, that you control to dodge oncoming obstacles.
Beautifully illustrated with simple black and white graphics, each time you knock into an obstacle, a letter of your message changes. Thus you’re challenged to make sure your message stays intact, while the band’s song plays in the background.
Have a go at it here.
