I know I’m a bit late seeing the documentary about Valentino, ’The Last Emperor’, but it was as good as everyone said it was. It was a beautiful love story and a great homage to both Valentino Garavani and his partner Giancarlo Giammetti. What I liked the most was that the film really articulated the difficulty balancing the financial realities of building a creative business.
This is a great little article about some really small but beautiful homes in Japan. I love people who can turn something as small as a parking space sized lot into something amazing. I would also suggest NPR.org as a great resource for interesting news. National Public Radio is an often overlooked outlet for valuable stories.
Just doing some research and consultancy work for Iconoculture, a great global consumer research and advisory company. Check out their website if you’re interested in global market research services.
I just caught the Sol Lewitt exhibition at the Mercer Union in Toronto. The wall painting is great but his artist books in the back gallery are really interesting.

This is that particular collection on Style.com
Here is recent chatter about Boudicca from T Magazine at the New York Times
