"(...) I'm gonna find me a reckless man, Razor blades and dice in his eyes Just a touch of sadness in his fingers, Thunder and lightening in his thighs
And we're gonna ride, We're gonna ride Ride like the one eyed jack of diamonds With the devil close behind We're gonna ride..."
Espigueiro is a granary built with stone, raised from the ground by pillars to avoid the access of rodents. The origin of the espigueiros is the horreum from the Roman Empire. They can be found in northern Portugal, as well as northern Spain aaand Sweden.
I photographed this one in a little village called Brufe, in the very north of Portugal. Peculiar, right?

This is a series of tshirt prints for Carhartt FW2010, designed by the amazing Italian calligrapher Luca Barcellona, that I had a great pleasure to attend a workshop with, last year in Den Haag [Don't Believe the Type].
So I'm doing it all on my own and probably won't survive even one chapter without some strong motivation. Anyways I'm showing it, so there would be a proof to my good intentions. And please, be so kind and don't ask me any time soon if I can speak Portuguese yet!
"Set in the pristine forests of northern Sweden, just miles away from the Arctic Circle, the Treehotel combines stunning design with prefabricated tree-house construction."
There are five different units that will be ready for the opening this weekend (17th of July), each designed by a different architect to be completely unique. The owners of the hotel have plans for a total of 24 rooms within five years time.
Mirrorcube is one of the units. I find it the most beautiful thing I've seen lately. Love the way it disturbs the view turning it into an absolutely surrealistic image.
