As You Like It.

Swedish architect Ulf Mejergren created the Lift House, a red cottage on a mobile scissor lift, as a response to climate uncertainty. Displayed at ArkDes Stockholm, it symbolizes adaptive, mobile housing that can rise above floods.

If you are an so-called AI artist, you should also maintain a certain stylistic consistency.

What a Mess / Was für ein Durcheinander
Dafi Kühne (*1982)
Näfels (Schweiz / Switzerland)
2017, Linolschnitt/Linocut

A framed black-and-white artwork featuring bold, overlapping text that reads “paperless wireless cashless shameless powerless hopeless pay less what a mess.” The typography appears distressed and layered, evoking a sense of critique about modern society’s “-less” conditions.

A black hearse parked beside overgrown bushes and trees, its paint faded and windows curtained, evoking stillness and abandonment.

Oh, I just found some drawings by Wesley Willis and I really dig them. These drawings seem like silent love letters to structure and space, to the beauty of order and vision.

"UNTITLED"
by Wesley Willis
1982
ballpoint pen on cardboard
28 ⅛” h x 39 ⅛” w

A hand-drawn city skyline made entirely of fine blue ink lines on white paper. The buildings are shown in precise perspective, each composed of dense grids of intersecting lines that form glass-like skyscrapers. The drawing includes a few simple cloud outlines in the sky, and small handwriting near the top reads, “Drawn by Wesley Willis artist of Chicago.” The overall effect is both architectural and dreamlike, with an obsessive attention to structure and proportion.

The umbrella or parasol creates a frame that makes the scene look like a diorama. I like that.

Fortunately, I only listen to good music. I can't imagine what it would be like if I listened to bad music.

Working from home, jazz and coffee in the morning are a popular combination.
Well, for me, definitely.

On the night of 2 February 2025, my neighbour set fire to her apartment and mine was destroyed too. I will be able to return in the summer of 2026. Since the fire I have lived in three different places. The lamp is actually hanging in my current home.

A handmade pendant light with yellow, petal-like panels surrounding a single exposed bulb, suspended from a simple white cord. The design feels playful and imperfect, evoking creativity and warmth in an everyday object.

Just found Knit Hello — a hand-knitting typeface born from Typographic Knitting workshops. It turns slipstitches into letterforms and craft into code. Simple, clever, and kind of brilliant.

Throwback to when I painted my kitchen black — and now I’m tempted to do it again. Still obsessed with the way matte walls make everything else glow.

So bury me in wood
And I will splinter
Bury me in stone
And I will quake
Bury me in water
And I will geyser
Bury me in fire
And I'm gonna phoenix

From ‘Say Valley Maker’ by Smog (Bill Callahan). One of those songs that feels like a hymn to survival.

Exploring symmetry and rhythm through type—this logo for dridbinz was a study in balance, motion, and modularity. Each edge speaks the same visual language, looping back to itself like a digital mantra.

Two musicians, no theatrics — just pure listening and precision. Hauntingly beautiful music that feels like light over ice. Quietly powerful.
