MEXICO 2010.

things change. ALL the time.

tomorrow is my 20th birthday and i'm going to the mexico to celebrate it. ok. bye now.

I believe everything happens for a reason. People change so you can learn how to let go. Things go wrong, so that you appreciate them when they’re right. You believe lies, so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

iwantit.

i could totally see myself living in a little space like this loft. AH! maybe i would change somethings, como as cadeiras da mesa de jantar, those lamps on the 2nd floor, and some different art work. mas com certeza deixaria o concreto polido, eu amo a amplitude do lugar, so open and sooo clean, e as cadeiras do corbu's, um must. se tivesse exposed brick tambem nao me importaria. hehe. ai como eh bom sonhar ne gente.

the color code: BLUE.

We all know the huge impact color has on people's personalities, and that's why I decided to take this test. Well, I am a BLUE, and here are my results! :)

BLUE STRENGTHS:

Like the earth that sustained and nurtured our earliest ancestors, Blues are also steady, ordered, and enduring. They offer culture, beauty and emotional security. Blue loves with a passion. They see intimate relationships and creative accomplishments rather than material possessions as the finer things of life. (I find it pretty accurate, people that truely know me, know that this is TRUE). They bring culture and decency to home and society. They appreciate uplifting experiences, and feel most comfortable and cretive and productive environments. (Once again, SO TRUE). They want a sense of purpose in their lives, and willingly sacrifice personal luxuries for more meaningful accomplishments. (This is me, I'm a BLUE, but a huge part of who I am today, is a result of the way I was rased. If I don't care about material things, it's because I was thought that life is about OTHER things. Growing up I experienced that after you sacrifice something, meaningful accomplishments will eventually come.)

They are highly committed indviduals. Loyalty to people and sincerity in relationships - at home and work -- are their trademarks. They believe in all causes that bring a higher quality to the human experience. They listen with endearing empathy and speak with emotional zeal. Blues truely value their connections to people and enjoy the accomplishments of others. With perfection as their guide, they strive to be the best they can be. They expect the same in their fellow beings. Obediently, they accept the need for authority, and put their energy into supporting law and order. They are essentially the glue that binds society together. Blues give us positive examples in the way they organize their lives, giving preference to personal relationships and quality achievements. They add that special touch of excellence as they freely commit their hearts and souls to the betterment of us all in our shared journey through life.

I find it pretty accurate, how about you? :)

simplicity is the ultimate sophistication ;

humberto e fernando CAMPANA.

Drawing inspiration from Brazilian street life and carnival culture, the brothers FERNANDO AND HUMBERTO CAMPANA combine found objects – such as scraps of wood and fabric off-cuts – with advanced technologies to create a vibrant, energetic and definitively Brazilian approach to design.

FERNANDO AND HUMBERTO CAMPANA

“Cartoon” banquette, 2007
Stuffed toy animals, tubular stainless steel. 32 in. (81.3 cm.) high Produced by Estudio Campana, Brazil. From an edition of 25 plus five artist’s proofs and five from the Disney Collection.
ESTIMATE $40,000-60,000

Fernando and Humberto Campana exhibited a terracotta table made of decorative ventilation bricks commonly used in Brazilian houses.
Called Blow Up – Bamboo, the pieces were originally prototyped in bamboo by the brothers before Alessi produced them in stainless steel.
they have designed a bamboo version of their blow up furniture and tableware collection for italian design brand alessi.
