a visual collective outlet of inspiration
scott campbell is generally best known for the tattoos he is drawing on celebrities and nyc hipsters (we think about marc jacob’s sponge bob or dash snow’s “eat shit & die”). but here, beside the precision and the meticulosity of those -i guess- razor blades cutt-outs, it’s the support that is interesting. maybe it’s a way to tell us that his customers represent a stack of bills to him đ like it! by pp’
objects
another one of karl’s poops
maybe we should make a special section dedicated to the endless and useless objects where the chanel c’s are randomly shoved in any which way… coco must be rolling in her grave. some restraints is due we believe. the snow board was a good surprise but you can’t joke the joke too many times. you must be kidding us this time around karl? by pp’
house of waris
you might know waris ahluwalia from the wes anderson movies, or simply from one of his parties at beatrice inn that you were not invited to. well, now officially waris has a jewelry line, and I have to say: I like it! we met with him yesterday at our offices, and aside from the cool persona, he is indeed a lovely, soft spoken, gentleman which just ads to his aura… by kv
rick owen: horny
love the chairs that designer rick owen designed and realized for his studio/showroom/home in paris. the mix of minimalism and nature work just perfectly. i love the fact that a designer can bring his own universe on every kind of things he do. and on top of that if you happen to see those chairs for real, they just look so hand-made that you can imagine mr owen with his saw… by pp’
now that’s a nice Panerai
the instrument is used to calculate longitude when at sea. it is enclosed in a box, mounted on gimbals and usually used on boats rather than a wrist. It has a 52-hour power reserve. officine panerai, marine chronometer, teak wood box; steel case, panerai OP XX calibre. by dd
another chanel’s shoving! (see previous posts)
maybe we should have a “karl’s bashing special” section… and i swear i’m not looking for these on the web, they’re just everywhere by pp’

the ultimate fashionista’s accessory?
to follow up on our lagerfeld comment series, here is another example of where to shove the double C’s in. after the surf boards, the snow boards… here is the guitar! we hope at least that it’s of decent craftsmanship. don’t even want to know the price. i feel a bit guilty to like it though… by pp’
Salone Internazionale del Mobile AKA Milan Furniture Fair
bookshelves by philippe bestneiderr⊠for those who do not like books at all. actually no, the white books don’t come with the shelves but the white stopper for the books do. the name ITAIPU comes from the south american dam âttaipuâ, famous for its rigorous architecture. however, i personally can’t make the connection. by dd
time was designed – by max bill
a product of the bauhaus generation, max bill was walter gropius‘ pupil and kindred spirit of le corbusier and mies van der rohe. characterized by a clarity of design and precise proportions, his work as a painter, architect, sculptor, teacher and designer amply demonstrates his virtuosity as a designer and creative artist. in 1962 swiss artist max bill (1908-1994) designed a few mechanical watches for the german company junghans. i love it’s delicate functionalism and elegant minimalism. by kl
very cool book – photography of andrĂ© kertĂ©sz
so simple, so black and white. by kl
clearaudio turntable
âthis fellow, made of wood and aluminum, weights in at 770-pound and has a magnetically driven sub platter that eliminates contact with the main platter and a nifty real time speed control.â… and cost 125,000$US! at NYLVI by pp’
Yanagi style japanese knife
aritsugu ao-ko layered steel hongasumi yanagi – priced between $498.70 â $1,170.00 based on length and options. this is the knife to have if you are remotely serious about homemade sashimi…. to have and to hold, cutting fish will change meaning forever. Korin is my favorite place to shop for japanese style kitchenware when away from tokyo, which is, quite often. bonus: for $25-40 a japanese samurai (not really-but could have been) master will sharpen your knife with a variety of water stones by hand, just watching him is worth $40… no english spoken. by dd
