Art is great for a lot of things. It impresses the ladies (and the men) in your life. It gives you a creative outlet so you don't take out your aggression on people at work. But art is also a great way to create awareness for a cause that you feel strongly about. Fear.Less is a collab project between Daniel Ting ... continue reading
When we hear the phrase "grunge art" we immediately think of Kurt Cobain in a coffee house in Seattle surrounded by sketched nudes of people we'd rather not see with their clothes off. We were, obviously, quite surprised when we came across Grunge Art by Lora Zombie. The work is dirty, grimy and dank in the same ... continue reading
You probably already know the benefits of using whiskey stones instead of ice in your drink. Basically, they cool your drink without watering it down so you get all the flavor you expect at a bit more pleasant temperature. With these Icon Whiskey Stones, you can add a bit more fun to your boozing experience. Available ... continue reading
When it comes to these acrylic on canvas pieces from Hubert de Lartigue, the devil really is in the details. Each piece in de Lartigue's Details series is is an extreme close-up of one aspect of the female anatomy (mostly lips and tongues, but there is one pair of boobies so it's slightly NSFW) that is so detailed ... continue reading
Jace Wallace is an artist and illustrator that you need to know about. His work runs the gamut from fantasy to fashion & design to concept art and focuses mostly on imaginatively created women that seem to have lost most of their clothing. It's erotic, alluring, emotional and, most importantly, fun to look ... continue reading
Most art starts a conversation. It evokes the Cubist mentality, or the human condition or blah, blah, pretentious words, blah. Fabian Ciraolo's Illustrations are so impressive that they could be described in many of the same ways, but we like them because they're so f'ing cool. Where else are you going to find ... continue reading
Let’s talk about irony for a moment. Hipsters like to think of themselves as unique and streets ahead of everyone else, yet somehow they all look identical (square glasses, skinny jeans, scarves all-year-round). The same could be said about the logos of Hipster Branding—they too all look identical (san-serif ... continue reading
Michael Sean Edwards knows his way around the business end of a film camera. He took a series of photos in NYC between 1978 and 1985 that cover everything from the Garment District to Avenue A. Check out his photos below and walk the streets of NYC as if it was more than two decades ago. And they said time travel ... continue reading
Guitars are inherently cool. You can take the cool up a notch or two by getting a limited or special edition from one of the big manufacturers, or even by having your existing one customized. But you'll be hard-pressed to find one as cool looking as one of Olaf Diegel's 3D-Printed Guitars. We can't comment on the ... continue reading
Ever since Jodie Foster, Forest Whitaker and Jared Leto shared the screen the phrase "panic room" makes us think of two hours of our lives we'll never get back. Graffiti artist Tilt has officially erased that stain from our minds with his newest piece at the Au Vieux Panier Hotel in Marseille France. Tilt's "Panic ... continue reading
Oliver Barrett is one of the greatest illustrators around today, and it's a good bet that his name isn't ringing any bells for you. Do you read Wired, or drink Pepsi, or shop Urban Outfitters or enjoy Marvel work? If you answered yes to any of those questions (that should just about cover everyone reading this), ... continue reading
Most men know how to do a lot of things but are only exceptional at a few of them. We're really good at finding cool stuff on the Internet, but calculus is an instant migraine. We could write about the newest gadgets and gear until the sun comes up, but writing about an amuse-bouche is nothing more than a flashing ... continue reading
Even if you don't have a device branded by the fantastic digital fruit, it's hard to argue that Steve Jobs didn't change the world for the better with his time in our little slice of the galaxy. He touched a lot of lives in a lot of ways with his special brand of technical artistry. The New York Times put together ... continue reading
Call us suckers but we love a good mystery (as long as it doesn't involve Nicholas Cage). We try to solve every crime on Law & Order, we look for life's meaning at the bottom of every bottle of booze (wow, that sounded depressing) and we've diligently scanned "Exit Through The Gift Shop" to see if we could ... continue reading
Post-It notes are one of the greatest accidents in history. You can use them to remember everything from conference call notes to birthdays to what page you left off on in your book without damaging personal, or business property. Clever Parisians are taking the unassuming note to whole new levels with the Post-It ... continue reading
Using typography to create cool, wall mountable images of other things is really nothing new in the world of design. Time and time again we've seen talented artists throw the adage "a picture is worth 1,000 words" out the window in favor of using the same words to create pictures. We're not sure precisely how the ... continue reading
