Witchoria (aka. Brooklyn-based graphic designer Victoria Siemer) created a series of photographs which blends geometric shapes into natural landscapes to produce fragmented reflections within each image. The lines between reality and fiction are blurred as the elements start to blend into each other. A beauty that is created based on nature and the constructs of photo manipulation . . .

Art on Chocolate
How many of you buy products that have great packaging, despite whether or not you know anything about it? I'm putting my hand up in agreeance to that. UNELEFANTE is a gift shop with a team that includes a tea sommelier, a botanist and a poet.

Adding Fun through Colours
Being the first day back from our week-long public holiday (I love China!), we definitely needed some colour in our day. ...and I certainly found it when I came across the rebranding of London-based design agency Dalziel&Pow. Their logo was first created 15 years ago and it was finally time for a fresh new look, so they made it all about bright colours, patterns, and expressive . . .

In previous times, perhaps they were given the benefit of the doubt and we let it slide, but these days there's always that . . .
Depth in Folds
New York-based Brazilian artist Marcelo Daldoce likes to go beyond the conventional 2D landscape of paper and canvas, bringing life to a flat surface, and he certainly does this with his creative artwork. In order to construct these optical illusions, Daldoces uses acrylic paint to create images on paper, then proceeds to fold it into different patterns and designs - giving his work a kick of . . .
Apple the Apples
You might remember the Apple Pie that was featured awhile ago. Well, there has been yet another Apple occurrence, this time created by an unnamed Japanese Fuji apple orchard owner. This is it... How did he do this? The Fuji apple man designed special 'tan-toos' that prevented the stencilled areas from ripening as fast as the rest of the apple, thus creating the Apple-ised apples. Sometimes I . . .
