Tropical Pools ? Aerial Perspectives (Part 1)
Tropical Pools ? Aerial Perspectives
I've always been captivated by the meeting point of land and sea, documenting the intricate patterns shaped by natural forces along coastlines. Usually focused on untouched landscapes, I recently observed an unexpected addition to these views: sprawling vacation resorts and hotels, each with pools that offer a unique architectural form.

Matt Roussel’s Textured Woodcuts Metamorphose into Paintings
From elaborate portraits to overflowing florals to playful animals, the woodcuts of Matt Roussel (previously) tell a wide range of enigmatic stories. For his large-scale works, Roussel begins by carving wooden panels, but rather than using the blocks to make prints, he applies acrylic paint to the surfaces to create bold, textured paintings.

Roussel’s work will be on view in several forthcoming art3f fairs throughout Europe, with Strasbourg, Nantes, and Lyon coming up in late February and March. Find...

Brompton's Hide-Away Bike Toolkit
When Brompton wanted to develop an onboard toolkit for their folding bicycles, they turned to British industrial design firm Goodwin Hartshorn.
"We took advantage of the bike's foldability to create a toolkit which fits inside the frame," the firm writes. "This protects it from theft and from the elements."
"The kit includes all the tools necessary for most roadside repairs in a compact, lightweight unit. Perhaps the most innovative features of the kit are the space-saving double-ended driver bits and the unique tyre levers. These not only make removing tyres...
