House by António Sérgio Koch

November 3, 2009 @ 6:10 pm

Arch Daily posted this great house designed by architect António Sérgio Koch in Oporto, Portugal which I am just falling in love with. It’s got huge windows and big open spaces throughout the entire complex. Definitely something that I feel would age well over time and not look too out-dated in just a few years (although I could be wrong…but for now, a very beautiful house).

3sixteen opens new store in New York with Self Edge

While I was away on vacation, my friends at 3sixteen opened up a brand-new storefront on the Lower East Side with Self Edge. I have yet to visit the store yet since I just got back to the city, but judging from Andrew’s photos, the place looks like its a big success! I remember talking to Andrew about his ideas for a new store a couple of months back and we both agreed that a nice store deserves nice hangers. It certainly looks like he and the rest of his design team didn’t skimp out on those. :)

Anyway, if you’re in the neighborhood, drop by and check out the new store and pick up some goods. I’m sure they’d be happy to chat.

Oh, and while you’re there, you might as well have a look at the “Square” purchasing system that uses an iPhone as a transaction device. Pretty neat!

I like square butts and I cannot lie

Mark posted this and I cannot seem to wrap my head around the absurdity of this 2-minute music video for Burger King. The marketing director that approved this one is in a league of his own.

Anybody know what fashion show this was from? Or which designer put this outfit together?

IT IS HOT. Everybody needs to adopt this hairdo. NOW.

UPDATE: The designer is Txell Miras from Spain.

Tesla Coils playing Legend of Zelda theme

SexyBack vs. Legend of Zelda Theme on Two Tesla Coils from Trammell on Vimeo.

At SXSW this year, ArcAttack set up Tesla Coils to act as synchronized instruments in a massive custom DJ setup. According to ArcAttack, these Tesla Coils produce an electrical arc with a distorted square wave sound that mimics early synthesizers. They then manipulated the wave in such a way to play back the theme to The Legend of Zelda.

One word: AWESOME.

The wide range of options available for the LUMIX DMC-GH1 let users customise and personalise their camera. An option for photo shooting lets the DMC-GH1 reproduce a square image with a 1:1 aspect ratio in addition to the 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 multi-aspect ratios.

Nothing more needs to be said about this camera. I want this.
