The Ikepod Hourglass by Marc Newson
Each hourglass is hand blown from one single piece of borosilicate glass in Basel, of all places. Filling each piece is not sand, but rather a incredible amount of tiny nanoballs each coated in different material. To be more specific, each hourglass contains 8 million nanoballs. It's a beautiful piece for your desk. But at $28,500!!! I'm not wetting my pants.
Childrens by Steve McCurry
His career was launched when, disguised in native garb, he crossed the Pakistan border into rebel-controlled Afghanistan just before the Russian invasion. When he emerged, he had rolls of film sewn into his clothes of images that would be published around the world as among the first to show the conflict there. His coverage won the Robert Capa Gold Medal for Best Photographic Reporting from Abroad, an award dedicated to photographers exhibiting exceptional courage and enterprise. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including Magazine Photographer of the Year, awarded by the National Press Photographers’ Association. That was the same year in which he won an unprecedented four first prizes in the World Press Photo Contest. He has won the Olivier Rebbot Memorial Award twice.

Fantastic Man Issue 13
Beckham takes the cover of issue 13 of Fantastic Man. In fact, they’re calling him the “most famous man in the world.” Could be true. He’s at least one of the world’s best known footballers. In their words: “Perhaps the most famous gentleman in the world, Mr. BECKHAM is freshly coiffed care of ALAIN PICHON, and photographed at a pie and mash shop in his native London by ALASDAIR McLELLAN. Other notable profiles include: the new director of the TATE MODERN, CHRIS DERCON, who discusses the fantastic prospects for the museum’s upcoming HERZOG & DE MEURON extension; owner of THE INDEPENDENT newspaper, the media oligarch Mr. EVGENY LEBEDEV.”
“Final Cut” Hand Carved Skateboard Project
“Final Cut,” is a project in which German curator Tobias Megerle engaged with a group of twelve Mahim woodcarvers to produce a series of one of a kind skateboards using the traditional carving method found in Mumbai, India.
