Emilie Rigaud is a French graphic designer who also uses her 2d typographic designs and her fonts and create 3d installations with them.

It is no surprise that Calvin Klein’s new TV ad is banned, again, the video was directed by Steven Meisel. A very beautiful and voluptuous video!

abondoned couches
An interesting blog that I found on wordpress. Four admins take photos of the couches that they see on the street and upload them to their blog. It is interesting because in Turkey you can’t see such a thing. Leaving couches at the street is not our thing. And I couldn’t believe the amount of [...]
