POST TITLE


Recently I happened on this Jackson Pollack exhibition catalogue at the Smithsonian Archive. Interesting how the cover looks like a title page. Mixed with the circus/kabel type treatment, altogether it's pretty great. The functional aesthetic of the title page is underestimated, I think.

LIBRARY

An image from the Bidoun Library at the Serpentine Gallery in London, from last summer. I still love the spacial and sort of trompe l'oeil effects of this arrangement.

MOTIF



Adding motif to something unusual makes the motif feel unusual. Chevron stripes on pony hair desert boots from 80/20, and on a hand-made mug from Matthew Hyleck.

STILLS


Interesting fashion editoral layouts from the movie Bill Cunningham New York. I wish I could remember what magazine they were looking at. 

REVIEW


WRAPPED


Artist monograph designed by M/M (Paris) for Koo Jeong-A. I like how it's fully wrapped with a photograph of forest -- something hidden and exposed all at once. Even the name wraps it up.

NEW

Something to look at. http://wilderquarterly.com/

CACHE







After just deciding to search for a loft space in ernest, I've inadvertently found this blog; a thoughtful collection of bright airy lofts, tropical waters (another obsession), and classic, pared down looks.
