weekly glee # 17 2009.

1. desertions.

lonely truck / dark corridors

# station to station by thehoodwatch- i just can't get enough of his great fabric captures. see also: riverside mill - his newest discovery. we should expect more pictures of this place soon, since he only photographed one floor out of 5.
# ross mine by br1nd - gotta love these HDR quality photos. makes the buildings look much more eerie than they already are. the truck is the best, though.

triangle dress / natalia vodianova

# ranya mordanova by tom munro for vogue russia november 2009 - absolutely futuristic and beyond beautiful. feathery gowns, bright violet lips and a breathtaking black triangle dress are the new deal.
# natalia vodianova by hedi slimane - a very personal view onto the natural beauty of natalia vodianova.
# constance jablonski by joshua jordan for harper's bazaar russia november 2009 - notice the wittyness of this set with showing off some renaissance love. nice stuff :D but the shoes must be deadly for the feet, i guess D:
# caroline winberg by cedric buchet for elle italia october 2009 - the blonde curled hair of caroline winberg is to die for! this set is inspired by the gladiator eras of the old rome. sexy :D
# robert pattinson by hedi slimane for AnOther Man #9 - hedi slimane's simple photography style suits this man so much! since i'm no twilight fan, i think that mr. pattinson's potential should be used for more serious movies. he's got the james dean/alain delon-look!

3. architecture & design.

dream chair / in the woods

# the kautsch collection by carolin fieber - these spider-web related sofas look so comfortable! i bet you can pretty much have the sleep of the gods in them!
# the torres house by GLR arquitectos /gilberto l. rodriguez - it's just like sitting in a glass house, only much more luxurious.
# sebastopol residence by turnbull griffin haeslop architects - in the middle of a fir forest stands a villa that almost feels indian if it weren't for the huge windows. lovely!
# swing chair by patricia urquiola - this looks so fragile and beautiful! perfectly for dreaming up the most romantic, wild, fantastic dreams :D
# bloody bathroom accessories by spinninghat - this is so real looking, that it's just genious. 'psycho' is greeting :D

4. diversity.

strawberry oreo muffins formed like panda bears! delicious! not just for the tastes but also for the looks <3 5.

video time.

coilhouse had an inspiring post about the rinpa eshidan collective doing their street art on various materials and in different places. on of my favourite clips of the shown videos is this one with the car rising out of an rhino-elephant and balloons.


i love christopher walken! and i do love him especially for reinterpretating lady gaga's poker face, haha :D

i've always wanted one of those chairs. wouldn't it be amazing on the porch in a secluded cabin in the woods. i'm almost relaxed just thinking about it.

my mind imagines the best cabin now, enjoying the sounds of the woods, with a cup of tea in the hands.

and dreaming, haha :D

november: kickelhahn, himmelblau & weimar cemetery.

i had a week off in november and visited my parents ( as i often do on my vacations ). on a sunday morning we headed to the thuringian forest to climb onto the peak of the kickelhahn mountain. the kickelhahn mountain is the landmark mountain of the city of ilmenau . johann wolfgang von goethe , the famous writer & philosopher, often visited ilmenau and also climbed the kickelhahn. oftentimes he stopped at a little hut in the woods to relax for a while and on one of these stops he wrote one of his most known poems.  our little adventure didn't last the whole day, though, as we had a little date with the weimar cemetery to look after the grave of my grandparents and then to visit my cousin and his family. tiny peek onto the kickelhahn tower. thuringian woods - deep dark green. at the goethe hut. this plate shows the german version of the poem goethe wrote here. inside the hut. and here's the english translation. i love this poem so much, as ...

in the forests.

it's that time of the year again.

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...
