Swiss agency LangGysiKnoll invented bizarre paper rugs for dining tables, promoting a trendy shoe shop just around the corner. The name of the shoe shop and the address are written on the inner sole of the shoe on the picture.

Paparazzi Magazine in Argentina ordered these sun protectors from Publicis Graffiti to promote nightclubs of Buenos Aires. The sun protectors where placed in all the cars at the clubs parking, so that paparazzi couldn’t take pictures of what’s going inside. Girls on the pictures are famous in Argentina.

Geniuses Guerrilla made a campaign for German magazine Bild. When men do what they need to do, they see some part of themselves in the mirror with Bild magazine credits and with a slogan below “Nothing’s harder than the truth”.

Casa da Criacao for Shopping Tijuca made an outdoor campaign for smoking prohibition. When doors slide, they divide a cigarette from the woman’s mouth. Nice!

To advertise Body Worlds 2 Exhibit, other funny sliding doors were made – when a person enters, he sees a man’s torso and then he sees what’s inside!

Yuko Shimizu

Paris Hilton - New York Walker cover

Equisite Japanese illustrator and educator Yuko Shimizu has been drawing since she was able to hold a pencil. Her works show fine sense of humor, some of them have erotic character and it’s no wonder she worked for Playboy magazine. She worked for other famous magazines like TIME, People, The New Yorker too.

But not only this makes her a great artist, her style is recognizable, her paintings, drawings, comics and illustrations are a fountain of wild ideas and shapes. By the way it may be the best portrait of Paris Hilton ever!

How would it feel if the floor were alive?

Living floor is like walking on a beach - it feels soft and looks funny

Remember those funny key-rings you could squeeze and the liquid inside moved from one side to another? Fancy a floor like that?

Now this is possible with B.lab – this design laboratory, which creates alternative architectural materials, has invented something they call LIVING.

A living surface allows with pressure to play with the bubbles on the underlying colors. The pressure changes the intensity of colors and causes transformation of the surface.

Walking on the Living floor is like walking on a beach – movement underneath is created and it feels soft and looks funny.

While imagining this, take a look at the pictures!

Aya Kato

Aya Kato

Young Japanese artist Aya Kato has created his own style “Cheval Noir”, which means “Black Horse” in French. His works are a crazy mixture of European Art Nouveau and Japanese traditions.
His style reminds a bit of Klimt, a bit of Vrubel but are nothing like them at the same time. Breathtaking!

Buy nothing on November 24 and 25

Buy nothing DayEvery year all over the world people celebrate the Buy Nothing Day. In case you don’t have a clue of what this is - this is a free-shopping day every November.

The idea is that the consuming has grown so much in the past few years that there must be a way to stop it - so a tribute to non-shopping was created, which became the Buy Nothing Day.

Here are some videos and remember not to buy anything on November 24&25, even if you run out of toilet paper!

Recent most fashionable places in the world

nightclub in Madrid

First of all, there is latest nightclub in Madrid, Spain designed by Tomas Alia. This futuristic looking project is a corridor-like, subterranean space, divided by columns. An LED lighting system drenches the dance floor, a wavy wall and even the toilets in different colors in time with the music.

Then there is Gold restaurant, launched by Dolce&Gabanna. The restaurant is located in Milan, Italy and has an entirely gold interior. First-rate wine selection, exquisite Italian cuisine and many celebrities like Kylie Minogue, Paris Hilton, Tiziano Ferro, Barbara Berlusconi and many others complete the interior.

Not much of the common mortals are ever likely to get either in Tomas Alia’s nightclub or Dolce&Gabanna’s Gold restaurant, but still we are allowed to watch!
