Totems by: Alaine Delorme

Some people are hip to carrying bags or babies on their backs, but in Shanghai, you can carry a warehouse load of things. Saves a few trips, right?
Aliane Delorme has captured this quirky balance of humans and objects in their engineering wonder. Simply beautiful!

Paris vs. New York

I came upon these images today and fell in love with their ability to show culture through such well executed simplicity.  And being that I work with many Frenchies, I took a liking to them a little more :)

Check out the Paris vs New York blog for more imagery.

Chocolate Mast

This post is a tribute to a dear friend, Chris Mast, his brother, and chocolate...

In addition, I found this site called thescout.com, a New York based site that highlights the lifestyle and design-conscious events in the city.

Beautiful images by Mindy Best about a Chocolate shop owned by two brothers.



























love the packaging.

now go eat some chocolate...
