Harper’s Bazaar June Issue
Maybe it is the color of the cover. Maybe it is the Bazaar’s guide of Ibiza (and you know how much I like Ibiza). Maybe it is the content: from Carolina Herrera’s patterns to husbands in summer. Maybe it is the articles about literature, cinema or music. I don’t know what it is, but this…

White
White is the color of morning light. The color of cold, the color of inmensity and the color of solitude. White is the color of Classicim but also is the color of trendiness. White is the color of space, of void, the color of the beginning and the color of the end, the color of…

Cyanometer
This beautiful object is a Cyanometer, an instrument designed in the 18th Century to measure the blueness of the sky. Today, in the 21st Century, it doesn’t exist a Pantone color for the sky or the sea. Neither for the forest or the rain, the sun or the moon. It’s nice to know that there are…

Silent Colors
What I really like of these ceramic bowls is their soft color palette with pastel tones. We notice silent, humble and modest colors, perfectly combined. The poetic names of every color are also very inspiring: Sobert Chip (soft pink), River Pebble (grey), Cloudy Cove (black) and Frosted Juniper (light blue). These bowls are handmade in…

Mustard Color
It is not yellow and not orange. Mustard is a forgotten color, although it is the color of autumn leaves, old gold, reflections of light at sunset and the well-known Moroccan ras al hanut. It is sober but bright and keeps the charm of antiquity. Yes, we should use it more. — No es amarillo…

The Art of Looking Sideways
Edited by Phainon, The Art of Looking Sideways is the best graphic design book I’ve ever had. Just read the introduction that says like this: «The Art of Looking Sideways is a primer in visual intelligence, an exploration of the workings of the eye, the hand, the brain and the imagination. It is an inexhaustible…

A Cottage in Paternoster
I really like small cottages in the middle of nowhere, like this one near Paternoster, in South Africa. This beach hut was built from local stone and designed to blend into the surrounding countryside. The interior design of this and other cottages (like this beach hut in Uruguay) is always a creative exercise, because as…

Very Blue
I dare say that this has been the year of blue. Although predictions said that 2013 would be a year of emerald and burgundy, we have to surrender to the evidence that dark, deep, nocturnal and mysterious blue has been the protagonist of the last twelve months. — Me atrevo a decir que este ha…
