I don’t generally gravitate toward black and white art, photography or prints, but with Sam Brewster’s incredible patterns, can you really blame me?

These Beethoven rings are 100% insane.

This week was quite the doozy, yes? It’s rainy and dreary here, which is the perfect time to snuggle up to a few yummy links, right? Yes. I agree.

For starters, Google before you Tweet is funny, and sort of true, but eh. Don’t take Tweets too seriously and you’ll be fine. Although I suppose if you do Tweet something without fact-checking, you could wind up face down (yes, my new favorite blog of the week!) in a pile of shame.

Speaking of piles, I’d love to stack these totem pole cups with coffee and partake in an artful snack right about now (I wonder if the totem cup would fit in my new UBoard cupholders?). Or perhaps some toast would taste good. Under a tree. I bet that would make a fine installation for D. Billy’s site interventions.

Anyway, Design for Mankind is getting a new editorial calendar next week (just a nip/tuck… until April when the big reveal comes!). Similar to the nip/tuck of paper surgery actually, and nonetheless inspiring.

See you Monday!

Kicking off the afternoon with a yummy juxtaposition.

This is how Julie Morstad makes a kite.

Me? I call Husband. Because I’m lazy.

I’m no high-end fashionista (my sweatpants hold me back), but the Chanel iceberg has had me reeling for days.

Made from snow and ice, a.k.a. “snice”, it weighted 265 tons and stood 28 feet high.

Whoa.

I never really was one for diamonds (I’d rather have coffee as my best friend, really), but Morgan Blair’s diamonds?

Well, they’re pretty.

Hair is the newest trend in art (and lighting!), so I wasn’t surprised to see this yummy installation from Jackson Sprague.

I think this is going to have to be a new series, folks. How about we start the morning off with a new juxtaposition daily?

Like that?

Good.
