I Went in this gallery yesterday, and was introduced the a world
premiere of the Cubie. Its a concept of a hole lot of artists making
Cubies, and as you can tell by the photo, these are made for
travelling. So whenever in a new place, the Cubie will make you
feel at home. Participate, born to design a Cubie set, read more
here. /M.

Inside Bethanien the walls are covered with art. Danish artist
HuskMitNavn, made these. /M


When walking the other day in Kreutzberg, I came across a
huge window, with a huge ear in it. From a speaker a man was
maybe telling a story, but in a unknown language to me.. So
here the phenomena of listening to a wall repeats itself, only
this time in Palermo. Found the image above at Rina´s, who
blogs from Santiago de Chile. Eventhough its two different art
pieces, i find it fun to see the similar movement.
Thanks Rina for sharing, and
yeah, the project looks quite amazing. /M

Found these polaroids at N.Y based photographer Porter Hovey.
Besides blogging in a concept of using polaroids as a form,
Porter also makes som pretty outstanding portraits and still life.

Found this great store the other day, called Über. I really like
the wooden babusckha dolls, and the maybe not so functional
leather-ball coat hanger. /M



We went on a trip to Potsdam. Its about an hour drive on the
autobahn from the house, with lots of grey skies and flashy
colours. /M

Want to show you some of the amazing stuff, ive been stumbling
upon here in Berlin. I must say that almost none of my daily
walks includes seriously planning, simply because this city is so big,
and with this in mind i have faith in seeing what im supposed to,
and not what i strive for. Recently on a page i sadly cant remember
anymore, i discovered this guy, Matthew Rose. So maybe it was
yesterdays luck (!) that i found his art in the flesh at
Galerie Rosella Junck. Check out his stuff for yourself, and see
also the book “It was a very bad year”, that Mr. Rose made. /M

Went and saw a show in KW. KW stands for Kunst Werke, and
is actually one of the oldest exhibition places in the city. It was
founded in the early 1990´s and possesses some 2,000 square
meters of exhibition space-extending over five floors, plus
six artists’ studios in the front side wings. The image just above
is from Still Life by the artist Ricarda Roggan. /M

Some More Still Life from Ricarda Roggan. These cars are so
sad in a strange beautiful way. /M

I came across a great guest post/article written by Erin of design for mankind for Holy at DECOR 8 on the subject of visual plagiarism . Would definately recomend taking a look. There are many interesting comments/debate going on, as well as references to some good articles. Thankyou Erin and Holly for sharing your thoughts on the matter of “Inspiration or Imitation.” - K

While visiting bloesem I saw a post on the lovely home of danish designer Helle Høgsbro Krag, owner of the Cph based shop called cremedelacremedelaedgar. I checked out their website and decided to highlight it here b/c I like all the little illustrative and personal elements. Maybe interesting for those of you that like original websites. - K

Found this lamp called Emperors lamp, made by the stockholm based design firm Malin Palm and
Aasa Ohlsson of design dessert. Their idea is to create products that are not only practical functional
but that also are for the mind. I think the name fits this one perfectly. Created on the theme of what is
visible and what is not. Found through better living through design. - K

I recently met the danish designer Mette Scherning, who has an inspiring shop in Cph together with danish ceramicist Mette Hellbek. Mette creates a very
fine jewellery line, featuring delicate porcelain jewellery with colourful handpainted pieces. I think they have a very unique nordic look to them. See all of the lovely peices on her website here. - K


Another item Ivé been eyeballing this summer is this bright yellow MHY pendant lamp which just spreads good color vibes. From the scandinavian design co. Muuto, made by Norways Says. Can be found on the Kirkeskov and Hvidesteens webshop theboligshop an interior shop with a large selection of lamps and other interesting things. - K


I stumbled upon the website of liberty designs at the fabric company and thought I would share with the world what was looking very good this summer in Cph. The intricate floral prints and the high quality liberty fabric made great lightweight hippie pants in DK this summer. The pants are designed
by the duo of Daisy and lots of young women were feeling casually comfortable in them. Can still be bought in the online fashion shop featuring lots of danish designers YouHeShe.
