In my dreams!!!!!!!!!!

Since I was a kid I have always had recurring dreams about futuristic architecture, often they would be giant structures made from glass with vines and roots. These dreams were a combination of my love for Aldous Huxley books and films like Laputa (castle in the sky) and Labyrinth. I came across the Portugese architect Álvaro Leite Siza Vieira's dream home Casa fez. 

words:LadyLuck

We have all seen more than enough of the stacked-boxes genre of architecture. Boring, cold, uninviting, uninhabitable and so last decade.

Yet, once in a while, a set of images crosses our desks of a project that could potentially fall into the has-been category but doesn’t, and instead makes us look again and ponder the beauty of great architecture.

This is the case with Casa Fez, a new house in Porto, Portugal, designed by Álvaro Leite Siza Vieira.

 From some angles, we see glimpses of Tomorrowland, but we are willing to overlook that because from so many other viewpoints, the statuesque poise of the structure and the stark clarity of lines brings back memories of Alvar Aalto. One can almost imagine this house in the birch forests of Finland.

 Architect Álvaro Leite Siza Vieira, who was born in 1962 in Porto, graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in Escola do Porto in 1994. He has an impressive pedigree that includes touches of Finland, and that which perhaps explains the Aalto-like feel of this house.

He is the son of one of the best-known Portuguese architects, Álvaro Siza Vieira www.alvarosizavieira.com, winner of the 1992 Pritzker Prize and the 1988 Alvar Aalto Medal, among many other accolades.

 Father and son collaborated in the creation of their competition entry for the Museum of Contemporary Art, KIASMA, in Helsinki in 1992 (won by American architect Steven Holl.)

 Natural light, wooden floors, unadorned windows all add up to a simplicity that resembles a gallery, museum or concert hall. Casa Fez does not pretend to be a cozy home, but is instead a statement residence that fits the owners’ lifestyle. - Tuija Seipell

Lashings of style

Paperself is a platform for the innovative exploration of paper for contemporary product design. 

Since the time of the ancient Egyptians, paper has enabled the world to communicate. It has bought continents closer together, educated millions and for centuries has provided a canvas for creation, experimentation and the realisation of ideas. Paper is everywhere and now it is evolving into a new dimension.

Launched in 2009 by London based designer Chunwei Liao, Paperself unites artists, designers and manufacturers from East to West. Challenging conventions of product design, Paperself offers a stylish alternative in furniture, homeware and accessories for eco-conscious living.

 This is the beginning of a paper revolution.Inspired by the art of Chinese paper-cutting, Eyelashes blend an element of traditional culture with contemporary design.

Intricately cut and delicately pretty, Eyelashes are now available in 11 styles, each infused with symbolic meaning rooted in Chinese culture:

Horses: symbolic of success

Peony: for happiness and good fortune

Peach blossom: a symbol of love and romance

Peacock: auspicious and lucky days

Butterfly: free, buautiful and sensitive

Clown: bring the whole happiness

Unique and expressive, Eyelashes come in two sizes: accentuate the corners of your eyes with the smaller lashes for a subtle daytime look, or make a statement with the full lashes for a special occasion.

Dimension: 42*18mm Material: paper
Concept Designer: Ting yu Wang Amazing Paperself Eyelashes: By Mail Order Stockists: http://lunaandcurious.blogspot.com   If you would like to order the eyelashes, please telephone 0207 0334411 between 12-6pm or drop an email to info@lunaandcurious.com For the ultimate statement piece choose the super sexy large lashes £12 (one pair).

I recently came across a photographer and ever since i have been hooked.

Clayton James Cubitt, a.k.a. SIEGE, is an art photographer. His work has the fun, sexual documentography style of Terry Richardson and the bold colours and compositon of William Eggleston.

Stunning!
