that space _ casa delpin, a house with lots of slanted lines

window doubles as abstract art in the bedroom.

street view.

back view.

pool in the dining area.

slanted tubes let the sunshine in, mornings and afternoons as well.

kitchen.

i like this idea of mixing modern floor tiles with traditional ones.

beautiful casa delpin is situated in san juan, puerto rico.

originally an old house from the '40s, now renovated

after the plans of architect nataniel fúster.

fashion illustration idea _ do it with charcoal

boys in the trees for showstudio

how cool are these fashion illustrations that

tobie giddio made for showstudio back in 2013

as a visual report on some of the s/s '14

nyfw fashion shows.

you can actually buy the originals

here at showstudio.

i totally like the idea of making fashion illustrations

with charcoal. At least for me it sounds like a great

idea maybe even as a transition from academic

charcoal studies or sketches into fashion

illustration. i think i gotta try this.

also, i remember having seen mats

(gustafsson, that is) illos also

executed in charcoal.

if you are interested, you can take a glimpse

at some of my old croquis from school:

here / here / and here.

words _ my brain

when i found this image on pinterest

(lettering by a pair of pears), i had this unstoppable

urge to make a screenshot of my laptop with loads

of tabs open in my browser.

so i did make a screenshot. there you go:

and i guess what you see on my screen

is very much representative of my mind too.

i think i got way too many things on my mind

and by now i simply can't stop.

btw, you can follow me on pinterest, too!

and just see my rambling mind there.

looks _ wear white shirt

i used to love crisp white shirts a lot.

mostly the masculine ones. and i think i still do.

only, i don't wear them so often any more.

one of the reasons might be the fact that

i don't wear shirts as often as i used to.

model anna lundgaard was photographed by

fred meylan for the editorial "cold wave" in

french be magazine's september 2014 issue.
