In its latest collection " Secrets..." Ibride Design Studio teases our senses and plays with our judgements. The series of bookcases connect us to a make-believe world. Hidden beneath portraits of Dandy - Rastignac, Edmond Dantes and Bel Ami - are small shelves designed to store our favorite books.
In this collection inspired by the imaginary world of Balzac, Dumas, Maupassant, de Vigny and Flaubert, Rachel and Benoit Convers, the design team pay tribute to the theme of Secrecy. The Ibride design collection infuses a secret life to its objects, thus instilling a fairy tale atmosphere to our homes.

Liv Tyler finds the thought of appearing nude on screen "terrifying".
The 33-year-old star appeared topless in 1996's critically acclaimed drama Stealing Beauty.
But she hasn't appeared nude on screen again until her new film The Ledge, which is out in American later this month.
The steamy thriller features Liv in a series of clinches alongside Patrick Wilson and Charlie Hunnam.
Liv, daughter of Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler, plays a former drug addict who befriends Charlie's suicidal atheist.
Liv's decision to disrobe once more may surprise some after she admitted she bitterly fought against appearing topless in Stealing Beauty.
"I was like, 'No way, sorry,'" she is quoted as saying by Fox News. "Of course the thought of showing your body parts is a terrifying thought - I find it terrifying. Let alone the whole world. And I fought it until the very end."
While she eventually lost her argument, her performance in Bernardo Bertolucci 's film earned her rave reviews and shot her to stardom.

The Surface Merchants are Alex Yanes, Daniel Fila & Raymond Adrian working as a collective.
the surface merchants:
post-graffism
Popularity or not, the newly formed Surface Merchants are one of most crafted, imaginative collective art groups from Miami, point blank. My favorite collective group is Gurrea de la Paz but The Merchants are a close second! If you disagree, you might be on a bandwagon of some sort and need a new pair of glasses. They don’t hire people to build their work. This trio have a certain rhythm that works very well and should be exciting to see what the future holds for them.

God bless designer Alex Trochut for making these totally radical slapstick boards. Mixing design cleverness with skating is always a plus.

Self-portraits by tape artist Askash Nihalani. Although every artist and their mother does this type of tape/photography art...it is still very fun to look at and each artist always finds to put their own twist on it.

“I discovered that what’s really important for a creator isn’t what we vaguely define as inspiration or even what it is we want to say, recall, regret, or rebel against. No, what’s important is the way we say it.
Art is all about craftsmanship. Others can interpret craftsmanship as style if they wish. Style is what unites memory or recollection, ideology, sentiment, nostalgia, presentiment, to the way we express all that. It’s not what we say but how we say it that matters.”

This is totally trippy radical dude. Reminds me of the old school 3D Comic books with the overlaying colors that creates a weird blurry fun confusion.
