This ‘Long John’-bicycle is custom painted by Esimex with original, grey Mercedes paint and equipped with the real star logo in front.
On their website you can see a couple of other bikes they also made. Including a ‘Short John’-BMX-bicycle!

I don’t know what it is about me and architecture, but there’s just so much beatifully designed buildings coming through my feed reader every day.
This is one of them; a library in Columbia (!) on top of a hill and built by the architect Giancarlo Mazzanti. Too good to not pass along!
I’m a Coca-Cola guy. Always have been. Always will be.
But if Pepsi keeps pumpin’ out products like this Pepsi Raw, I might have to change my mind…
Pepsi Raw. The fizzy caramel cola we all know is losing the artificial ingredients and are instead being replaced by apple extract, coffee leaf, cane sugar, and sparkling water
- just marvellous! Real apple extract, coffee leaf, cane sugar and sparkling water. Nothing more than that. The way it should be.
Oh, and the design of the bottle is awesome too!

The Nanyang Technological University is building a new School of Art, Design and Media, and it looks pretty good, to say the least.
What do you think this is?

Appartently the documentary film ‘Helvetica’ ended up on Google Video some weeks ago, and Gary Hustwit (the director) is angry about it:
Some of you may have caught the 48-hour free view of Helvetica on Google Video… uhm, that wasn’t legit. [...] Tens of thousands of people watched the film free on Google in the past two days (it was the #1 most watched video today). Do you know how many people have emailed asking how they can support the film? Two people. There’s been no increase in traffic to this site, and no change in our normal daily mail order sales.
That’s not good, and the only reason why I haven’t bought it yet, is that I wanted the limited edition and didn’t get around to buy it in time. Hopefully, a new version is coming out, and this time it’s in Blu-Ray:
Dutch design team Experimental Jetset has been commissioned to design a special edition of the Blu-ray package… all we can say is that a 12″ gatefold record cover is involved…
That has got to look awesome!
This house is absolutely insane. Just take a look at that pool! Totally different from what you normally see in a summer cabin in Sweden.
Also, have a look at the kitchen:
It’s fashion week here in Copenhagen, and one of the most anticipated “shows” is the one by Mads Nørgaard. The reason for setting the word show in quotation marks, is that it’s not a traditional show, but rather a video.
For the Spring collection, it looked like this:
The characters of the movie is Freja Beha Erichsen and Eddie Klint, who are shown touring Copenhagen with their friends. The track playing is ‘Copenhagen’ by ‘Sods’ (now ‘Sort Sol’), but remixed by Djuna Barnes, Anders Trentemøller and German band Rework together with Steen Jørgensen (the lead singer of Sods/Sort Sol).
Now, it’s time for the second movie in the triology, and a trailer can be seen at thecopenhagenexperience.dk. The music is very different from the one in the Spring-video, although it’s based on the same song.
Can’t wait to see the video later tonigt!
