today's inspiration: Fab Ciraolo

Let me introduce a nice Spanish illustrator, Fabian Ciraolo. His special individual illustrations are an ornate vintage world with a lot of floral motifs, pastel color scheme, used retro-glam and today's indie symbols. In his new pictures Fab reinterprets some last century celebs in this modern glamour way. Frida Kahlo in Daft Punk t-shirt, Che Guevara in hipster trousers, Marilyn Monroe with tattoos. Besides his other works are notable as well. Even though he uses the now trendy patterns like cats, foxes, floral and universe inspired backgrounds, there is something impressive in his works. 

today's inspiration: lookbook illustrated by hands

A really nice and cheap variation on lookbooks: Whitney Pozgay's (maybe some Hungarian in her ascendants?!) brand, WHIT brought something new and playful into our technically bounded years. This '12 spring lookbook with the Aztec-inspired illustrations by Mary Matson (also worth a look!) makes me feel so relieved after those fully photoshopped and artificial shots that come out every day. Special congrats for the models reacting to the drawn environment. Have fun :)

today's inspiration: hungarian folk in the home

Let me introduce this Hungarian handmade mini faktum based on a very nice and simple idea: designing hangers with Hungarian folk motifs.  Judit Vigvári Design is a one-man undertaking, now also makes pillows and little home decor accesories. 

Egyszerű ötlet, gyönyörű kivitelezés, sokadik bizonyítéka annak, hogy még mindig lehet, és tudnak újat kihozni a magyar népi tradícióból, motívumokból - nem is csak az iparművészek, hanem pont az ehhez hasonló egyéni, kézműves kezdeményezések, otthoni minifaktúrák. Szeretettel mutatom be nektek a Judit Vigvári Designt!
