CABBAGE IS THE NEW VIAGRA.





A recent study in Sweden has found that pickled cabbage is the best natural Viagra.

I don’t know about the cabbage but this light designed by one of my favourite Swedish designers Claesson Koivisto Rune for Wastberg, sure gets me excited.

YOU'RE ATTRACTIVE.
















Hiromichi Konno’s philosophy behind the new RIN chair for Fritz Hansen was “to develop a design that attracts people”.

If you ask me it’s:

ALL WE ARE SAYING IS GIVE PEACE A CHANCE.






Everybody's talking about this new church in Denmark by KHR Architects.

The steep incline of the building face was inspired by the surrounding natural landscape, with the interior elements such as the fishing net used inside as a space divider was influenced by cultural heritage of the town.

Blessed with the Hay JW01 chairs, if you're going to pray this is the place to do it.

Amen to that!

SWINE FLU AND THE MEXICO MYSTERY.











































Things are really going down hill for Mexico. Two months ago, no one had heard of this strain of swine flu, now it’s on every front page.

The architects Productora, of this House in Chihuahua, must have seen the down hill trend coming when they designed this place to accommodate the extreme temperature differences between day and night by partially burying the house into the mountain slope to take advantage of the soil’s mass.

A new eco pandemic perhaps?
