Architecture: House Among Trees
this house, designed by Martin Fernandez de Lema and Nicolas F Moreno Deutsch, is fantastic. what do you do when you have a lot full of trees and are not allowed to cut them down? incorporate them into your design. (via atelier a+d/archdaily)

Artist: Nick Cave
while at my local museum this weekend i saw a work that stuck with me. a piece i'd never seen anything like before. it felt larger than life and i knew it was something special. it was a nick cave soundsuit. in fact, it's the one pictured above front row center. watch the video here to see the suits in motion and see an interview.

Lighting: Hayon Studio
bastoni
three new lighting collections by hayon studio for metalarte:
The Bastoni Collection: I have been thinking of this sort of lamp for ages: one you could drag comfortable all around the house for reading. I am the type of guy who moves plenty and this lamp would be the perfect one for me. It was also an element with a sense of humor, something I truly appreciate in a piece. The America Collection came from the idea of integrating a coffee table and a lamp. This is a very useful piece and something I can see placed in a variety of contexts. The Santa collection was a natural evolution from the America collection as we immediately saw the shape’s potential for a smaller size.
