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.

2. photogenius.

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.

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

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 ...

the america chronicles '22: austin I - city of the violet crown.

sighted on the way to austin: the texas  colorado river . but beware, this is not the iconic colorado river ( 2.334 km long ) that has its source in the rocky mountains and confluences in the gulf of california, flowing through the grand canyon and other magnificent landscapes along the way, but this is texas' very own colorado river with a length of 1.387 km starting in the llano estacado plains in northwestern texas, and eventually ending up in the gulf of mexico at matagorda bay . why there are two colorado rivers in the US, i really don't know 😅 my guess is, that they were named by two people in different times, not knowing of the other's colorado river discovery. we'll meet the texas colorado river again in austin, so i will probably bestow more information on you eventually ;D a random road squirrel, also found on the way to austin. austin is about 187 miles ( 300 km ) away from baytown and is situated west from there in central texas. it sits at the foot of th...
