I'm sure you've all heard about cargotecture by now - I'm bananas over it, loving the endless possibilities provided by it. Seriously, it's like one of the few things that gets me excited anymore. Hehe, "Hi. I'm E and I have a shipping container fetish."
After 19 years and more than 430 episodes, "The Simpsons" has moved into high definition, marking the change with an update of its iconic opening titles, which have not changed since the show's second season in 1990.

James Hoisel is an artist from São Paulo, Brazil who has a great sense of humor. He uses a variety of different mediums to create fantastic caricatures that range from the famous to the obscure. Most of his work is created just by using Photoshop, where he spends countless hours perfecting every last detail.
It's really intriguing to view global environmental and social issues through a lens. These photos are part of CIWEM’s Environmental Photographer of the Year 2008 Exhibition. The images are meant to enhance our understanding of the causes, consequences and solutions of climate change.
There's that warm feeling you get when you see a light fixture like this. I can imagine this hanging in my dining room, an elegant cluster of 19 seemingly simple sockets with clear globe bulbs shining like little pieces of art. The ring moves up and down to create a gorgeous bouquet of lights.
Design: David Abad. Spain. Uses 19 X 25W incandescent G40 bulbs (included).…

A sweet little find on Etsy! With magazines stacking up all over me, I'm desperate to find a basket that can hold my collectible Dominos. I'm eying this one from the seller, meganauman, but I don't know if I can stomach the $180 price tag. Alas, a girl can dream! I'll find you… Continue

This blog has been a long time coming. I said months ago that I would do a post about her- because really who doesn't love the Aerosmith chick?

Am I dreaming? One look at these t-shirts and you'll feel like you've stepped into a dream. A world where everything from trees to the weather are man-made, where books come alive and where evildoers pay for their sinister ways.
Fullbleed was started back in the summer of 2004 as a sideproject while Rob Dobi was doing freelance design work for bands and… Continue

Glad to see I'm not the only one with a colorful childhood... strangely enough, my "invisible f(r)iends" seemingly were cut from the same cloth. Especially Herbie - what a wild one that kid was!
