Ah yes. finally! Bridging the gap between fashion destination stores and pertinent fashion blogs, Holt Renfrew, always creative and innovative with their window displays, are once again proving their worthiness.

Le Whif is a new way of eating chocolate – by breathing it! Imagine, chocolate [...]

Behold! Apparati Effimeri’s “TETRAGRAM FOR ENLARGEMENT” is one twisted, mind-bending piece of work. Through the use of projected light (and, the absence of light), we witness something as grand and tangible as a castle, meld, mold, melt, and continually rebuild itself.
