Impressive style
Accessories can highlight the originality of your style, and this bracelet is an absolute proof.
When you look for completeness of vision or want to put an accent, there is nothing more appropriate than a properly selected accessory. A jewel can change the perception that it carries depending on the clothes it is combined with and vice versa - it can affect the overall vision.
The leather bracelets by Paige Novick are very good example for this – they can fit both an everyday or club outfit, just like chameleons. Although Paige officially launched her luxury accessories company in 2008, she is not a stranger to the fashion industry. She’ s known as owner and creative director of Frou until 2003.
This bracelet model impresses with its original style and craftsmanship – the leather cuff is covered with various sized silver beads. Regardless of their form – a ball or cube, they complement in order to achieve balance and create a sense of uniqueness.

Culture beat is not just a nightclub or a boutique cafe, bar or place, where you can eat something tasty.
Culture beat is all this in the center of Sofia (Bulgaria). Situated on the back of the National Palace of Culture, the club hosts various events and offers unique experience in a pleasant atmosphere.
The interior of Culture beat is a crazy mix of styles – industrial, street and vintage sots. And when you enter the club, it is cozy and you feel quite comfortable.
Especially for true connoisseurs, the sound in the club is so soft as the quality of the interior. Actually, if I have to summarize, Culture beat makes you feel somewhat relieved by the vanity and tend to smile more often.

Cosmic Luxury on the Plan...

Crumpled City Map
I have always been wondering what is the proper way of folding those huge tourist maps. I recently found out that proper way does not exist.
Inspired by the rather confusing traditional way of folding tourist maps, designer Emanuele Pizzolorusso came up with the Crumpled City Map. It is innovative because every user can adjust it to their individual needs, rather than to comply with the limits of ordinary maps.
Crumpled City Maps are printed on a soft and yet strong, waterproof paper. The material is specially selected to allow people to fold and squeeze the map however they want without destroying it. These maps are easy to use because you can keep the area you are interested in unfolded in the palm of your hand and wrap it up when you find what you have been looking for. When you do not need the map anymore, you can put it back in the convenient small bag. What could be easier than that?
Future Fantasies
The future of fashion or the unusual fantasies of an artist.
Kora-Krit brand initially emerged as a continuation of the eccentric art of Korakrit Arunanondchai. He was born in Bangkok, but lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. One of the unconventional ideas of the futuristic artist was to provoke visitors on one of his exhibitions, and to make them wear clothes with motifs of his paintings.
After he received high marks not only for his work but also for his fashion sense Arunanondchai decided to present his line- Kora-Krit. Clothes and accessories in it are following a variety of themes and motifs, but they are all having a sense of uniqueness.
Creating clothes and accessories is all about having fun for Arunanondchai, and he wants to share that with his customers.

Rio and The Carnival
Rio can offer you everything you have dreamed of: from sunbathing on the Copacabana beach, and a meeting with Christ Himself to the world’s most famous carnival.
Every spring the carnival warms up the city, removing all inhibitions of its residents and exceeding even the wildest expectations of its guests. It has started in 1840 as a custom accessible only for the richest. However in the following years regular Brazilians gave the fullest definition the word “carnival”. There is an obvious tendency of lavisher costumes and more seductive samba girls each year. Even though it is not scientifically confirmed I suppouse that this is one of the reasons for the growing number of visitors.
For many people Rio de Janeiro is the Carnival. The truth is that during the time when dancers are dancing in flamboyant costumes, Rio remove its mask. Then you can see the true face of this dynamic, hot, shocking, rhythmic, noisy, colorful, obscene and unpredictable metropolis.

Sky planter
Imagine the world upside down. Looks fun. Now imagine all green plants - fern, herbs, flowers, upside down and in the air.
Actually it is possible and Patrick Morris – designer from New Zealand, offers a solution for this using a revolutionary process.

Although it sounds quite amazing, is real and works. You can install the unconventional pots where you want, as long as they hang well on the ceiling. And because grown plants vary in size, so do the pots, and the mini version is most appropriate for herbs.

Jewellery home
Portuguese designer Rui Grazina has created new home for jewellery – a cube-shaped box with a drawer on each face called RG02.
The jewellery box was conceived as an object that contains small interior spaces in five drawers on its five usable sides. Each of these units has different size and character, offering the possibility of assigning them different functions.
The whole unit is made of satinwood, and marked by the particular feature of a smaller drawer, which is given another kind of wood – rosewood – thus proposing a different space oriented for an especially precious object.
