Christopher Doyle's Identity Guidelines

Came across this while, coincidentally, in my own mind was mulling over a brand guide I'll be working on with my friend. Would love doing this for myself as I've been doing a huge haulout of my closet and reimagining my "brand" a little. Would be interesting to do this each season as a personal documentary; goodness knows how we look speaks volumes about who we are - or at least who we'd like to be.

3-D is the new 2-D.

Excellent excellent site showcasing the fine work of Amsterdamians (?) Barcinski & Jeanjean. Especially love the concept behind their site for FITC Amsterdam 2008 - it involves cowbells and Brazilian percussion so what more do you need to know? I could link directly to it but then you'd miss out on the fun of tracking it down in their mini virtual Amsteramian world. 

99% fun without 3-D glasses. 127% with.

We have more in common with the Yukon and Nflnd than we thought...

Holy crap! That's a lot of blue! As we beach ourselves back onto the shores of Tory-manned Canada this morning, here's a quick and comprehensive look at how Canada voted (note: the GTA's propensity for Red - man, are we ever products of our environment), compliments of CBC.ca. Nice interactive zoomy map there!

I wish I was the one who found that box in Venice...

A Passion for Fashion and Twisted Ankles

Models, including Canada's own Jessica Stam, literally fell head-over-heels for Prada's, well, heels this past week at Prada's Spring 2009 show. I've never seen anything like this. It's just so blatantly ridiculous to be pushing fashion, even haute couture, to these levels. Below, poor Katie Fogarty one of the many casualties at this show.
