Bern Capital of Switzerland ♥

Here is a beautiful picture of the City of Bern, night snowing time. I really love it, if I have to stay in Switzerland for the rest of my life then I would choose to live there. The structure of Bern's City center is largely medieval and has been recognised by UNESCO as a Cultural World Heritage Site. Perhaps its most famous sight is the "Zytglogge" (Bernese German for "Time Bell"), an elaborate medieval clock tower with moving puppets. It also has an impressive 15th century Cathedral, the Münster, and a 15th century town hall. Thanks to 6 kilometers of arcades, the old town boasts one of the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe. One place I love to go during Summer is the Garden of Roses (Rosengarten), from which a scenic panoramic view of the medieval town centre can be enjoyed, is a well-kept Rosary on a hill, converted into a very Romantic Park (it used to be a cemetery in 1913).

Sunflowers eggs

Good Monday to everybody, I found out something really interesting.. how can you make your Monday mornings happier, well use one of those sunflower eggs mould and if you are not able to buy one of those, then use your Christmas cookie cutter mould I tried last week and the "Star" mould shaped was so perfect. My mornings are now amazingly great.

School of Architecture & Design

Good afternoon lovelies,
I'm posting some pictures that I took a few weeks ago at the School of Architecture & Design, every Wednesdays we are doing workshops which are really interesting and very intense work for all of us.
At the moment the main course is about constructions and materials, building an amazing scale model that I will have to present on March 9th, 2011. Can't wait to present it :)

Rubik's cube

That's really cool and already a bit vintage, Rubik's Cruet for salt and pepper.

Leica camera

By going through different web pages I found a picture of an old type of Leica camera, I wish I could find one of those. I actually did find one in Stockholm Gamla Stan in a tiny small discount shop, but when I try to take pictures with it I had a bad surprise.. he didn't work, even the shop had worn me that it might not work. So now back to my research for a lovely Leica. ♥

Rainbow Holsteiner stairs in Wuppertal Germany

For those of you who haven't seen these before they are a stairway painting in Wuppertal, Germany by artist professor, Horst Glasker. The work is called Scala. The (German) words on the stairs are describing the relationship between human beings.

Kids Caramel Clothing Shop

I discovered a lot of fascinating stuff within the page of Caramel-Shop particularly its amazing range of kid's clothes. It appears like this is truly an extremely well-liked web site. Keep up the great work. I am sharing with you this lovely picture, perhaps this could be the new fashion style for your kids for the coming Summer.

Marie-Sylvie's gift

Hello my lovelies,
Last week after coming out from work I went home and I got the great surprise to find in my mail box a package from Amazon, my sweet friend Marie-Sylvie sent me a book called "Laisse tomber, il te mérite pas" He is just not that into you, uhmm very interesting and funny stories about how men and women interact and different points of view. Thank you very much Marie, you made my day. Usually I only get invoices in my mail box, so it was a real surprise.

Ikea The Mystery of Stonehenge solved

The mystery of Stonehenge has been solved by the Swedish company Ikea :)
To all the British; please do not be offended by the fact that the Swedes just discovered the solution before.

Simon Heijdens


Shade by Simon Heijdens is a film made of triangles which change opacity according to the wind pasing over linked sensors, resulting in a constantly shifting pattern of light and shadow. I would like this very much.

Illustrations

I found those two illustrations on internet and it reminds me of my childhood, my grandma used to tell me stories before going to bed, and in some of the books the images were just like those illustrations. Love it ♥ just feel like I'm going to the basement to check for my old childhood books that my mum stored in boxes.


Kay Sekimachi workshop


Last night I finished to built my last architecture model of this month, that was intense work cause until the last pieces to be glued you always get a little bit scared of what's going to be the result, I had officially finished that model a week ago but I discovered by comparing technical plans that I had done a mistake...pfff had to make corrections and worked on it the whole night but now I'm ready to present the model to my teacher. Will add pictures of my model by the end of this week. I am adding the following picture of Kay Sekimachi's workshop, I wish to have one day such a nice table to work, cause you should see my office at home isn't that big.
:)

Sewing... Sweet and Simple

Good morning my lovelies,
How are you today?

I would love to be able to sew my own dress or anything that could be creative, I already tried to use my cousin's sewing machine and it wasn't that difficult but I still won't be able to do all the things that I am planning too. Perhaps I should start creating small things. My next big step will be to buy a sewing machine at the end of march 2011.
