{Sports} Perfect Formula 1 pit stop by Ferrari crew

I love a well coordinated team! And this Ferrari Formula One crew are rehearsing their pitstop choreography to perfection! They are all amazingly calm and precise under pressure. Crazy impressive!

It all reminds me of when my husband [ then boyfriend ] and I met, we used to watch entire seasons of Formula One with our good old friend C. I can not believe the commitment on our part: all the qualifications and races. There was no btvision or tevo then. We had so much time on our hands!

So this if for all you F1 fans! Watch and enjoy!

{Interiors} Top 10 coolest kids bunk beds

Bunk beds are a fantastic way of saving space and avoiding the bedtime argument of who switches the light off and when. Each child has some privacy as well as control over their sleep.
Since our 2 years old and 8 years old share a bedroom, we decided to tackle the sleeping arrangements last weekend.

I turned to one of my favourite Pinterest boards for some inspiration for the best bunk bed ideas for kids rooms. Here is a selection of my top 10. They really make me wish I was a kid again...

{Graphics} Six Architects | Posters by Andrea Gallo

I love these 6 minimal architectural graphics by Andrea Gallo. Aren't they beautiful and simple, yet so evocative? His crisp black and white graphics simplify and recreate the work of some of modern architecture’s most famed structures — from Frank Lloyd Wright’s Guggenheim Museum to Louis Kahn’s National Assembly Building in Bangladesh. Check them out, and let us know in the comments which one you’d like to hang on your walls.

{Art} Architecture in film: Archicine by Federico Babina

Artist and illustrator Federico Babina has come up with  a fun new series, ARCHICINE, representing iconic works of architecture that have played protagonists on film. The architectural space in the film is not just a background but becomes as an added protagonist. Movies have the ability to transport us to different worlds and lives and let us live and breathe real or fantastic architecture.

Two of my favourite things | movies & architecture | are combined here in illustration. I’ve rounded up some of the illustrations below, so  check them out and let me know which is your favourite! I am torn between Le mepris & Mon oncle.
Where possible, I have tried to credit the architect and location of the building.

{Food} Emily Blincoe's sugar series

I wanted to share some sweets with you today, since last weekend it was a sweet fest at our place. My daughter had 5 of her friends over for a sleepover for her 8th birthday celebrations. Enjoy these yummy images from the sugar series by Emily Blincoe at These woods. Emily lives and works in Texas as a freelance photographer. I love how she has managed to convey the nostalgia of childhood in these images.
