surface tension.

new pilot was good.
possibly the best yet.
and these are beautiful

A soap bubble is a very thin film of soapy water that forms a sphere with an iridescent surface. Soap bubbles can help solve complex mathematical problems of space as they will always find the smallest surface area between points or edges. They usually last only for a few moments until they burst either on their own or when coming in contact with another object. Due to their fragile nature bubbles have also became a synonym for something that is attractive, yet insubstantial.

freedom two.

this is quite possibly the most ridiculously beautiful shoot i have seen in a very long time.
a collaboration between always|sometimes|anytime, photographer sara orme and lonely hearts.
i would also really like that beige jumper and slash or those blue trousers.

the scout mag.

the scout mag is some sort of new york based site
featuring architecture/food/fashion/design related things and especially focussed on craft.
sometimes they document this in some pretty cool videos.

helplessness blues.

excite for new fleet foxes.

state of transition.

was the theme for this years urbis design day.
i had assumed that coup de main were just exaggerating when they described it as: the equivalent to an adult version of Christmas; minus the advent calendar countdown and the 5AM, screaming wake-up call.
it turns out they weren't.
