Half off everything!
i guess that mr. lagerfeld was inspired by seeing tom sachs chanel chain saw before he stuck the logo on the chanel bike, surfboard, russian doll, guitar and so on… (see old posts) but did he not get the irony here? by pp’

Nixon headphones: listening in style
nixon’s first addition to the world of personal acoustics. the line of three models; the wire, the nomadic and the master blaster wont be easy to find. as far as we know these are just prototypes. still, with this kind of well designed beauty it would be a sin not to produce it for the masses and end the white cable trend of the ipod. by kv

caravanserai exhibit
caravanserai’s were beautiful roadside inns for travelers and supported the flow of commerce, information and people across trade routes. some might even say that mail as we know it originates from this persian concept. tom schutyser went on a journey to discover and capture these architectural, historical and cultural phenomenons. the photographs from his travels will be shown in paris from june 18th-26th. if you find yourself in the right place at the right time; go take a look. if not, at least take a journey through tom’s travel log. by kv
