Today I ♥ small villages that want to attract visitors with creative ideas. This is the case of Vercorin in Switzerland. Each year they invite artists to create works during the summer that interact with the village itself. In 2010, Lang/Baumann created this geometrical painting across the village which, according to the inhabitants of the village “create spaces for dialogues in synch with our times.” Again, one more thing to add to my bucket list!
Ice cream best times are almost over, and soon we all be hearing nothing but Christmas songs. To celebrate the start of what could easily be the last warm weekend, here you have some creative pieces that have ice creams as the main topic. Now that I think..who said we couldn’t eat ice cream in winter? : )

I’ve tried to give credit for all the images, but for some of them it seems impossible to find out who’s the author. Please don’t hesitate and let me know if you are aware to whom they might be.
Oh, and did I told you Fünf Gemüse is also on Pinterest?

Video: I would like to share with you an example of what is BAD advertising (last Loewe’s campaign) and what is GOOD advertising (Re:Brief by Google). Do you agree with me ? : )

It might seem unrealistic, but all those pictures were taken in october (in Biarritz, Anglet and San Sebastián).
I kind of like the climate change now…! (kidding)
ENG. Since it has been raining for almost a week now, summer doesn’t seem to exist this year. This are a few images to show you that it actually exists somewhere in the world and to make your day happier:
Summer is here. Suggestions for this days:
– If it’s too hot outside watch (again) this film
– If you are hungry, eat a lot of fruits, they are fresh and healthy. To make them less boring, you can keep them here. If not, you can also eat lots of ice creams.
– Take a bike ride and park it in this funny hairbrush.
– If you want to travel, this might be a good destination (in spanish)
– Go to the beach and never be afraid of losing your swimming suit thanks to Superkini by O’Neil
– If you don’t have the beach near by, go to a cool swimming pool like this one in Berlin, this one in Dallas or this one in Utah
– Summer is a good time to show your skin. If you are thinking of getting a tattoo this one looks great
– Take lots of cool photos
– But if you still have to stay in the office or study for your exams, at least do it with fun office suppliers like Poppin !
*PS. any other suggestions would be more than welcome : )
PS2. Picture above is from the film 500 hundred days of summer. I’ve found the rest of the ideas here and there, but mainly in Holy Cool.net, A Cup of Jo and We Heart It.
I found those beautiful Deco Tapes in Pugly Pixel‘s blog. Aren’t they awesome? Take a look to her blog, it’s even better than this tape, promise.
…are one of my favourites things ever. Plus, they are really photogenic.
