MOYNAT MARVELS

The timeless beauty of Paris brims with life in Mary Clerté's whimsical film dedicated to the legacy of Pauline Moynat and her luggage company formed in 1849. This beautiful take seamlessly intergrates animation and film supported by a dreamy yet pulsating soundtrack from Canadian duo Valleys. It makes us want to pack.

THE GLASS FARM

The traditional farm house is the focus of a radically new building in the heart of Schijndel’s, a southern Dutch village. Following a tumultuous planning and consultation period, the Glass Farm project by MVRDV bloomed. Using numerous heritage photographs, artist Frank van der Salm created a composite image to be printed directly onto the glass facades. The result is translucent roof that lets light in and out day and night. Via Trendland.

THIS IS: BREEZY

Hanging out the washing has never looked so impressive. Finnish artist Kaarina Kaikkonen creates large-scale installations using second-hand clothing resulting in sky-high airings above busy streets, squares and gardens. Anyone missing a shirt? Via Afflante.
