#58 “Spirit” A Tribute to Lee Alexander McQueen by Visionaire… Visionaire pays tribute to the iconoclastic genius of Alexander McQueen who left his definitive mark on the design world of the 90s and 2000s. But it’s more than just a tribute, this special issue is published following a planned project between the designer and Visionaire, which never came to fruition. Now, as if to make up for the past, [they have] assembled some amazing work from Nick Knight, Steven Klein, Mario Sorrenti, Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin and Lady Gaga. With 1,500 copies on a special paper to plant, the Visionaire 58 will be sold exclusively in Alexander McQueen boutiques, Visionaire and at Colette. A limited edition couture version created in close collaboration with the house of Alexander McQueen will also be available. (via)

Last summer, thanks to a little help from AirEast Airways, a few friends chartered a helicopter to the Hamptons for the weekend. Despite the lack of sunshine, the views were absolutely breathtaking… Getting to ride shotgun didn’t hurt either.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Like a good little masochist, I decided to cram an additional project into my schedule and was whisked away to Los Angeles for a week because of it… I should be back to updating this blog on a daily basis by the end of the weekend.

The Porsche Garden designed by Flemond Warland… Now, I am sure that most of you out there know that there are 1001 ways to store your Porsche, but few are as stylish as this storage solution brought to the world by Cardok. The Porsche Garden was part of the Royal Horticultural Society Show in 2008. This stylish automobile storage system was part of Flemond Warland’s garden design installation which won Gold. As architect’s we can’t help but think how great this solution is for off-street parking, especially when you have limited space and can enhance your curb-side appeal. You may want to consider tucking away your daily driver and floating your Porsche garden-side since few things could be more picturesque. (via)
