ANGUS WHINES

Feet

I've found one of my people.  This guy takes fabulous photos of his (and his girlfriend's) feet, while they're travelling. 









>He also takes other, absolutely stunning, photographs of his adventures - well worth a look.

Smiles

Sweet.

Stats

Fabulous site for stats.

Ideas

Yeah, this is bloody good.  And true.



Via Jaime.  Who's still alive.  Phew. 

Cats

What the fuck??

Heat

How fucking brilliant is this heat sensitive wallpaper?



Graphic designer Shi Yuan turns a normally passive thing into something with a life of its own.  There's also a print using heat-sensitive inks that change colour when warmed and a calendar where the ink fades overnight.  Brilliant.

Ice Cream

Beautiful. 



Via Inspire Me, Now

Paint

It's just so fucking simple.  Love it.





Via The Inspiration Room

Balance

I want to do what this man does.  He worked tirelessly to balance 117 objects on top of a single Lego block, to capture the below shot.  The 'knocking it down' part is the best.

"... Nick Barham ... has been promoted to co-executive creative director of W+K Shanghai. Barham previously served as the director of W+K Shanghai Planning and is the first planning director in W+K history to be promoted to a co-executive creative director position. Maybe also the first ever planning director of an agency to become its creative director?"

Love that.

Lists

"We have a limit, a very discouraging, humiliating limit: death. That's why we like all the things that we assume have no limits and, therefore, no end. It's a way of escaping thoughts about death. We like lists because we don't want to die."

One of many fascinating comments by Italian novelist and semiotician Umberto Eco.

Stuff

Ephemera.  How wonderful.

Bread

By god I want these slippers so badly.





Via Bem Legaus

Stamps

I love good stamps.  Apparently the British Royal Mail are soon to release a stamp set with album covers from the '60s to now.  Lovely.



Via PicoCool

Building

Wow, this is just fabulous.  As Paul quite rightly says, "now find a way to effectively integrate a brand message into this experience without ruining it."  Easier said than done.

Shoe Diary

There's a shoe diary featuring footwear of Elle employees.  Lovely idea for a blog. 







Via SeeSaw Designs

Bacteria

Mmm, yummy.  A new font made from from e. coli bacteria.



Via Neatorama

Luxury

"An empty sealed can that materializes immaterial needs."  How wonderfully pointless.

Old Lady

I'd forgotten how good the illustration in this classic children's book is.

Soup

Oh fuck, this is brilliant.

http://whatsoupisittoday.com/ lets you know what soup is going at Pret and EAT each day.  Sure, as Will pointed out, it does remove the element of surprise and serendipity, but still, it's pretty bloody helpful.  Or would be if I was still in London.
