Ein Blog, der all den kleinen inspirierenden Dingen des Lebens gewidmet ist.
Oh, how I love inspiring collages… The ones by spielkkind -aka Kerstin Hiestermann- are especially imaginative. With very basic elements like leaves or cookies or shuttlecocks (!) she creates tiny worlds of their own. Cute worlds, minimalistic worlds.

Filmmaker Anthony Cerniello made the metamorphosis of an aging face now visible. Last Thanksgiving, he visited his friend Danielle who was celebrating a family reunion. With

The it’s no biggie tumblr made me smile… The animated gifs by artist Thoka Maer show situations that are (more or less -> ufo) taken out of our ordinary lifes. The umbrella scene or the books falling down the desk situation – I know them all. And hey, Thoka Maer is totally right, it’s no
The house of photographer Nick Olson & designer Lilah Horwitz would fit perfectly into my perfect places series … but it deserves its very own post. It is such a heartwarming story: At one of their first dates, the couple wondered what it would be like to have a house with a facade made of
