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.”

Nike Free Gym+

A lot of my girl mates that go to the gym will love these. The Nike Free Gym+ fits and feels like second-skin, but provides protection, additional cushioning, enhanced traction and complete natural flexibility. Ideal for the likes of yoga or training classes, the shoe features a split toe construction with extra traction on the big toe to allow stable barefoot-like gripping during even the most challenging single-leg moves and balances. It also uses instant comfort heel pads and arch support, and boasts an odor-absorbing lining derived from volcanic rock fibers. Worn barefoot, the Nike Free Gym weighs a minimal 5 oz., and is designed to provide comfort, traction, and a secure fit for maximum speed and reactivity.

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

New Interactive DC Comics Logos

Speaking with Fast Company, DC’s Senior Vice President of Franchise Management Amit Desai suggested the new logo’s “peel back” imagery reflected the nature of DC characters as individuals with dual identities. “When you think about our DC Comics superheroes, there’s a secret identity,” he said. “When you think about Vertigo, it’s this notion of good vs. evil in many of the stories. And so, in addition to flexibility, the new logo communicates this idea of dual identity: There’s more than meets the eye. You have to take a closer look to understand the richness of our characters and stories.”
