You are Beautiful...

The article is controversial, but the intentions are not. I love this picture, because regardless of the horrendous act that was done to her Aisha is beautiful. The photographer Jodi Bieber did an amazing job. The girl just wants her nose back. Bieber has an entire series called Real Beauty about reconceptualising real beauty and I think this photo embodies those ideals. What's your opinion?

Detail

When you study design you fall in love with detail. Details are the little things that take a design from ok and regular, to wow and standout. When details are given special attention you definitely notice. I like this chair for its clean lines and use of color bringing the detail to the front.

Etro

I discovered a new designer today, Etro. What inspired me the most was their handbags. I've never been the biggest handbag fan, but you could not help but be amazed at the quality. The detail is so refined and jumps right out at you. The colour palette is very mature, and the pattern causes uncontrolled drooling. Enjoy this is an image heavy post. I took these pictures from the Etro catalogue... http://www.etro.it/
