Posted on January 27, 2012 in Lifestyle First and foremost when hosting imagery of stores here on the site our bread and butter will always be menswear. Yet saying this we’re not ones to disregard the other beautiful lifestyle shops, like March Pantry in San Francisco for example which we’re taking a look inside today. I came across their webpage earlier this week and I’ve been throwing messages back and forth with those behind the store ever since, who I’d like …
Posted on January 24, 2012 in Design Today I thought I’d bring over this imagery that I found last night thanks to my random perusing, it always leads me into good spots around the web. Usually I start with a designer of some sort, this time Alvar Aalto, and I head out with the intention to learn something new and end up finding an abundance of great imagery that I can showcase here as well.

Even though it’s quite dark outside this space is a lot bigger than I originally thought, helped by the glass front and the all white interior. I really like the …
Posted on December 5, 2011 in Photography This is a prime example of two creative subjects coming together to form a great marriage, as seen here with this series of photography based on architecture by Grant Mudford.

Posted on November 22, 2011 in Design After much thought and deliberation I decided to do a small post on the Eames house, also known as Case Study House No. 8 since it was an experiment in American residential architecture sponsored by the Arts & Architecture magazine.
