Don't hate, meditate. Showcase Of Delicious Coffee Websites - Smashing Magazine. Advertisement For designers approaching a deadline, coffee is a delicious necessity. Lucky for us, having a coffee break is not really difficult. But it’s more than just a 3am fix. With every late-night run to the local coffee house, we contribute to a populous network of coffee trading, sales and experience. And in fact, coffee houses and suppliers are quite a business, with online presences ranging from simple layouts with striking typography to advanced layouts with remarkable photography.

Coffee websites: what do they look like? Showcase Far Coast1 Rustic oranges and blues are at play Far Coast’s website, with hints of distressed textures for an even more vintage vibe. Gorilla Coffee2 Thick lines, a dark two-toned palette, heavy shapes and an urban setting remind the user that coffee can be just as enjoyable when sipped in a fast-paced city as in the mountains. Coffee Club4 It’s no accident that the word “Indulge” emphasized in this design.

Robust-ah! LIMEALICIOUS! Onde Small Voice Blog. Eudaimonia Suite On thinking further about my lifelong philosophy project, I've come to see it as a six-part suite on the theme of eudaimonia. Just I have likened my set of Yes arrangements for solo electric bass to a Bach Cello Suite, so the six books I'm writing on the philosophy of happiness might comprise a kind of suite: I like this arrangement quite a bit, since the three pairs of contrasting thinkers (Rand and Lao Tzu, Nietzsche and Epicurus, Aristotle and Thoreau) are arrayed in a mirror image through the first and last, second and fifth, and third and fourth movements. Nietzsche's Poetic Effects I have not yet begun to grapple with how I will write Songs of Zarathustra, a cycle of philosophical poems about the ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche. The prospect is daunting in many ways at once, like climbing a high mountain in winter. As I study and contemplate various paths to the top, I keep noticing interesting features along the way.

Que 1 000 volcans se réveillent et que 1 000 rêves fleurissent ! J’avoue que j’adore cette situation et j’aimerais que cela dure, que plus un seul avion ne décolle pendant les 10 prochaines années. Pourquoi ? Et bien pour imaginer un autre avenir, une autre vie. Quand nous disons « on pourrait faire ceci ou celà », « on pourrait vivre autrement etc » on nous répond que c’est idiot, que ce n’est pas possible, voyons on ne peut pas empêcher les avions de voler, on ne peut pas empêcher les gens de voyager pour un oui ou pour un non, on ne peut pas empêcher les capitalistes d’être des capitalistes, le pauvres d’être des pauvres et les riches d’être riches, on ne peu pas accueillir toute la misère du monde, des vélos à la place des voitures dans les villes ?

I come to this magnificent house of worship tonight because my conscience leaves me no other choice. The truth of these words is beyond doubt but the mission to which they call us is a most difficult one. Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak.

She was apparently a suicide, as her body showed no marks of violence, but her beauty and her enigmatic smile led a Paris pathologist to order a plaster death mask of her face. In the romantic atmosphere of fin de siècle Europe the girl’s face became an ideal of feminine beauty. The protagonist of Rainer Maria Rilke’s 1910 novel The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge writes, “The mouleur, whose shop I pass every day, has hung two plaster masks beside his door. [One is] the face of the young drowned woman, which they took a cast of in the morgue, because it was beautiful, because it smiled, because it smiled so deceptively, as if it knew.” Ironically, in 1958 the anonymous girl’s features were used to model the first-aid mannequin Rescue Annie, on which thousands of students have practiced CPR.

Dejad que los niños se acerquen a ellos Unas semanas antes del último Halloween, un degenerado aprovechó que su novia enseñaba a los niños de un coro infantil para llevarselos a un "retiro" de fin de semana y leerles La Sombra fuera del Tiempo, Las Montañas de la Locura y La llamada de Cthulhu. Después, les hizo dibujar. Del resultado se infiere que los aterrados infantes, incapacitados por su falta de experiencia para resistir el impacto, perdieron la chaveta ya donde La Sombra porque todos pintaron Yiths, que son los que viajan en el tiempo, son más viejos que su propio cuerpo y son jodidísimos de quitarse de encima, como un hijo infernal de Drew Barrimore y el hombre-lapa.

Designed by Phil Sims and ideal for a novelty shaving mirror or just an interesting decoration for your living room wall, it's even got the name of the most famous razorblade-user of all on the front - Sweeney Todd.

Razor Blade Mirror is selling for £74.99. The price is pretty high for a mirror. So, make sure you are not buying this mirror only for just a “mirror”! Narcisse Mirror French design brand Domestic has launched a collection of mirrors by various designers including Matali Crasset, 5.5 Designers and Ich&Ka.

Listen to your hands from Sanghyeok Lee on Vimeo. Last week, we marveled at the secret compartments tucked inside the Kai Table, a beautifully crafted wooden tabletop meant to inspire curiosity and exploration.

Korean designer Lee Sanghyeok has created a similarly playful object called “Listen to Your Hands,” a table that investigates the sense of touch as the primary means of dialogue between human and object. A wooden desk with an asymmetrical stack of drawers defies the inertia of the typical table by responding to the actions of its human user: the push of one drawer results in the opening of another, and only a gentle closing of a drawer can keep all the others intact, suggesting that humans need to “act with intention.”

The plea for responsible action aside, Lee’s mischievous table would be the perfect prop for a Marx Brothers slapstick routine. [Image and video courtesy the designer] Connectivity 31.

Nature has always been a source of inspiration for designers to look at things differently. We all know that a tree doesn’t always have green leaves, water is not blue and clouds are certainly not always white and puffy.

As designers, we need to know to look beyond the obvious when looking at things. Cloud formations such as mammatus or lenticular among others, are perfect examples of how intricate and different nature can be. There are even so called ‘ufo clouds’, which truly resemble the shape of a UFO. In this post, we take a look at some amazing photographs of the weirdest cloud formations that you’ll ever see, that are destined to inspire your design work and surely blow your mind.
