Tibet Underground Art

I think it’s happening in Sweden,
maybe under Stockholm’s basements; ancient-like anthropomorphic but post human statues are appearing where no one can see them, glued underground probably for ages. This is Tibet Underground’s art.

Pinel & Pinel X Jordan

This is just one of the most incredible things I have come across in a while. To honor the visit of Michael Jordan in Paris, the designer Fred Pinel has created a luxury trunk, containing all Jordan sneakers in the classic colorway from the very beginning to now. There is also already a space for the soon to come Jordan 23, which we will see in 2008. The trunk has been made specifically for this purpose and was sigend by Michael Jordan on his visit to Paris. The trunk will be sold at an Auction at Artcurial on November 28th at 8pm. For people that know already that they don’t have the cash for this amazing thing, you can at least go and check it out from November 24th to 27th at the Artcurial Hotel in Paris.

I am sure this piece will leave for a small fortune, but it is also an amazing product!

A Cool New Book : SUB ROSA Poems

Sub Rosa Poems is Aurelia Tiara's real-love-life story, wrapped in a very beautiful words.
Very interesting poems in a very unique words to describe.
INSPIRATIONAL AND ROMANTIC !!!

And guess what? She just turn to 23 years old ... WOW !!! 5 thumbs up for you.

Comments:

Jajang C.Noer
Katanya seorang romantis tidak realistis dan seorang realistis tidak mungkin bisa romantis. Tapi Tiara menjumpalitkan pendapat itu. Puisi-puisinya realistis romantis, dan menginspirasi kita untuk merasakan sesuatu yang lain di baliknya. Kesedihan tidak jadi duka, kebencian dia jadikan sebuah lelucon, tapi bisa kita rasakan keresahannya.

Note : Saya pernah dua kali membacanya (puisi milik Tiara) di depan temu nasional aktivis perempuan Indonesia.

Adidas Material of The World : INDONESIA

The folks at Overkill Shop sent over some information regarding the latest release for adidas’ Materials of the World project. The nation in focus this time is the archipelago nation of Indonesia.

The inspiration comes from Batik-Made, beautiful fabrics with intricate details found on the island of Java. The ancient art of dying the fabric through a series of procedures makes Batik-Made a fabric of Javanese royalty and one of six high arts of Indonesia. Now, you can enjoy it too in the forms of adidas Originals Metro Attitude Hi, track jacket, and cap. The sneaker also comes in women’s version. However, like Batik-Made, only a few can own since there are only 1000 pairs available globally.

LEGO ICE CUBE

LEGO blocks ain't cheap, so for the less financially fortunate amongst us, there's a new solution. Lego ice blocks. Each tray can make ten blocks at a time, enough to make, well... a very small wall, or a slightly bigger block. However the patient could forseeably keep refilling the tray to eventually have enough to construct something larger, assuming they could build it extremely quickly or lived in a sub-zero environment.

[an:other]” store

Sometime mid 05 the [an:other]” store opened its eyes, I mean doors, for the first time to the general populous. A store located in Sydney, Australia. Stocked with whatever we feel like selling.

[an:other] carries labels like Fiberops, futura laboratories, Mishka, recon, rogue status and many more. They just opened their door back in 2005 and just celebrated their ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY (almost same age with us). Check out some of the collaboration tees they have done with their labels in celebrating their ONE YEAR anniversary.

Wish Atlanta

Here we are bringing yo yet another store feature. This time we had a closer look at the newly renovated Wish from Atlanta. Already before the renovation this boutique was a leader in the Atlanta area. But when we saw it after the renovation, we could not stop starring. Check it out on these pics.

“A dramatic redesign of Wish Atlanta marks the advent of the store’s evolution from hipster outpost into a sophisticated purveyor of some of the world’s most cutting-edge labels. With its re-launch in September 2006, Atlanta’s style elite will be able to find the highly sought-after, limited edition footwear brands which have formed the bastion of Wish’s identity, alongside unique, handpicked fashion pieces from international designers under one new and exciting roof.”




The furniture carrying the sneakers are lit boxes, all around a library, that gives the entire store a very special atmosphere. The furniture has a bit the Louis XV touch, but in modern colors. Wish carries ANYthing,Mighty Healthy, Mishka,Reason, JMoney, Mhi, Absurd, Stussy and Stussy Direct (purple label), The Hundreds, Garbege, Nonstop, Major Threat, Married to the Mob, Undrcrwn, Prohibit, Alife apparel, PRPS, Corpus, Nike QS, Adidas Trend, Puma, Alife, Madfoot,Reebok,New Balance, Creative Recreation, JB Classic. This fall new in store are King Stampede, Rockers NYC, Mamma, SSUR, Swagger, Crooks & Castles and Once Upon A Time, as well as Dave White Brand and the Sneaker Pimps line.

The application of different materials has been really well carried out, making this a boutique you do not come across anywhere else. As you can see, Wish definitely worth passing by! Check out some more pics after the JUMP!
