This was simply incredible and brings a feel good, nice meeting tradition culture,it was all classics show in CHINA, use traditional UK elements and colors. Not only it is a symbolize in ENGLAND, but also it is a good chance to express British tradition culture. George Ezra knocks this most amazing show into shape, the rest completes it magnificently. This is why I love Burberry.


Burberry needs to celebrate in London,so the below is 

other advertisements I enjoy.

The music, dance, scene and models are amazing. Christopher Bailey, Burberry CEO and chief creative officer explained how the short film acts as "a celebration of everything we love at Burberry; the trench coat, the cashmere scarf, incredible music, our British weather, and working with great and talented people."(Resource from: http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk/videos/TMG11206777/Watch-A-dancing-Romeo-Beckham-plays-cupid-in-festive-Burberry-advert.html)


I wanted to share with you Burberry's Christmas promo, where the iconic trench coat is the protagonist in a London background (British heritage). A nice dream associated with the brand they are transmitting here.It was incredible! And I watched it over and over. well done Burberry on a dreamy Christmas advertisment.

I believe that being beautiful is not something that people can buy. Therefore, no one can ever "afford" to be beautiful. But for those of us who are, being beautiful is its own kind of magic that is infused into very day life and lights up the world. To me, being beautiful is being wealthy because you have been given that rare gift.

Fun Concrete

    Button tiles by codolagni design studio for kaza

                                                         Size:  20 x 30 cm

                                                         Colours:    more

                                                         Designer: codolagni design studio

Use for interior or exterior decorate. KAZA concrete website writer claimed that " It examined the development of a formation system  created by objects pressed into a rubber sheet. The rubber sheet’s own physical characteristics mould firm forms and fine arcs impossible to reproduce  by any other method. " I believe that this tiles that dimension is added to the tile by a visually confusing characteristic. Button in the modelling of the concrete, the modelling of skin similar button, the author one   convex or concave down button arbitrary combination, make whole space appears different. The author makes design return to material itself.



The below pictures are other series of concrete I enjoy.

It was so cool, I would like this concrete decorate my house, if possible.

                              If you are interest about this different shape of concrete, this is a good website http://www.kazaconcrete.com/.

Tomohiro Inaba

I will introduce a artist and his works. Tomohiro Inaba is a young artist with  extraordinary beauty and unique creativity who finished his graduate studies in 2010.He took advantage of the wire and some plastic material mix build, with the shape of animals expressed in different ways.

                            
                                                                 Abstract the sheep: the transparent material look like wool

        The artist takes advantage of the density of material in order to achieve different effects of his works

Run: the two above of pictures give people a feeling of animals disappear in running

The disappearance of human skull

I have seen Tomohiro Inaba art on other social webside and think they are amazing. I love the fact that you show that nothing is something and space can say more than solid material.
