DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT: We Are Handsome






We Are Handsome is an independent swim suit company. Their designs are simple and graphic. Motifs of wild animals, city scenes, and people are common. Their use of vintage-like photographic prints is insane. So dynamic and exciting. Inspiration is drawn from designer Indhra Chagoury's childhood in Queensland, Australia and Jeremy Jules Somers’ artistic vision. The result is breathtaking: literal works of art on brilliantly fitting nylon--kind of genius. Each suit is designed and manufactured in Australia.

DRAWERS, STAIRS...AND DRAWER STAIRS


















I started to realize I have a strange obsession with drawers, and then I realized that you can have drawers in stairs, which made me realize I also have a strange obsession with stairs. Check out these ridiculous drawers and stairs...and stair drawers...Kind of insane. Kind of inspiring.
