Italy's sportswear-icon Ellesse teamed up with Wood Wood to bring you this fantastic capsule collection, consisting of polos, track-tops, chinos, hats and sweaters. The collection is obviously a homage to the "Casual"-style of the 90ies and by what I've seen it's all-killers, no-fillers. Available here.

From Joe Doucet, a table with legs that proudly display its construction as a design feature and "takes the idea of self assembly and elevates it to a fetish." From an environmental standpoint, the benefits of shipping an object with as small a footprint as possible are numerous. Unfortunately, flat ...

No, I don't have an iPad and probably will not be getting on in the near future either - like I said previously, I think holding off to the next generation of products is a smarter move. That being said, the slew of accessories being released for the iPad is ...

The Flyway View House by Jon Anderson Architecture is a 4,590 s.f. private residence located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Again, a well balanced notion of modernity and nature, the house and property utilizes the fact that one acre of the site boarders the North property line of the 160 acre Rio Grande ...

I am no Eagles fan, however, as a guitar player there is no need to deny the impact they, and especially Don Felder, had on generations of people. Again, whilst I don't think it is their best song "Hotel California" does have one beautifully crafted solo session, mostly due to ...

Mrs. V has been on my case to go over to Thailand for several years now and to be perfectly honest, I have not been too excited about it. However, after having been sent a link to the X2 Resort on Koh Samui I might have to change my mind. ...
