ShoechitectureThe footprint is replacing the blueprint as architects employ their talent to create skyscraper heels, and shoe designers are inspired by starchitect structures. Bikes: A Trend ReportThe latest bicycles combine cutting edge technology with considered design. Everyone is in on the race, from architects and designers to fashion houses and watchmakers. We showcase the most impressive two-wheelers. Lucien Freud: An Interior ViewThe work of Lucien Freud is put in rare perspective as seminal works come to light at a London Sotheby's auction and intimate photographs and documentary videos, as part of a major exhibition in Paris, offer insight into the energy and philosophy fueling the private studio of Lucien Freud. Marc Newson: Timeless DesignIt is a little known fact that the designer Marc Newson is creative director and co-owner of innovative watchmaker Ikepod. As his low-tech yet pioneering hourglass timer is revealed, Newson explains his distinct design philosophy. Organized Chaos by Herzog & de MeuronThe latest structure to be built at the starchitect-designed headquarters of Vitra is the VitraHaus by Herzog & de Meuron, an apparent burst of architectural energy that is in fact a meticulously planned vision of chaos. |
