OMG! I love ice cream – and man, is this ever an extraordinary concept for an ice cream store!

The Eyescream concept is fully implemented all through the corporate identity, the name, the design, the packaging design, the interior – and even the product! Read more about it here.

This photo series by Barcelona-based Oscar Ciutat is called Caged.

“The project started by chance back in 2008. I was visiting the local zoo, which I hadn’t been to in ages, and started taking pictures of the captive animals, just like everyone else was doing. My attention kept being drawn to their eyes, which, to me, seemed very sad, and I ended focusing my camera on them. I was intrigued by whether my impressions would be apparent to other people in the images. I wondered if that popular old saying, referring to humans, that goes “the eyes are the windows to the soul” could hold true for animals as well.”

Why My Blog Has Been So Quiet Lately

My blog has been awfully quiet these past 12 days. I haven’t been much online. The reason why: because I went to Barcelona, Spain.

First I went to OFFF – a digital slash graphic design conference this year held in Barcelona. I was highly inspired. Met super great people. And had a whole lot of fun.

Then I stayed in the city and hung out with friends. I even met up with a friend, who I hadn’t seen in 15 years. I saw more of Barcelona too. I’d only been there once before. So during these days I got to know Barcelona. The streets, the short cuts – and the great places for eating, swimming and being amazed by incredible art and architecture.

Then it was time for Sónar. And oh, what fun! More lovely friends arrived. And Barcelona got filled with great music and a super atmosphere. We danced in the sun. We danced under the moon. We just danced.

It has truly been an inspiring holiday. I’ve met great people. I’ve grown closer to my friends. We have been naked.

Oh. And if I decide to go to Sónar next year, remind me to take a photo series of tattoos. I’ve never seen that many tattoos gathered in one place. One tattoo is stuck in my memory. The only beautiful tattoo I saw actually. A full series of drawings: ‘How to fold a bird’. Origami, you know. On the front of a beautiful man’s shoulder and arm. It kinda looked like this:

Adéu, Barcelona!

I saw this video a couple of days ago. For some childish reason balloons always make me smile. And I like Barcelona too. So much that I’ll go for a visit again in June.

Adéu, Barcelona is created by Brazilian Lucas Lombardi Jatoba. This is what he says about the video:

“GOODBYE, BARCELONA! This is the way I found to say goodbye and thanks to the city that made me happy in the last 3 years.”
