Gaultier´s diet coke

05/01/2012 by chicquero

We are extremely amazed by the new Diet Coke bottles designed by Jean Paul Gaultier (OMG, no joke!). In the latest ad campaign, photographed by Stephane Sednaoui shortly after Coca Cola named Mr. Gaultier the new creative director of Diet Coke, models play with Jean Paul’s portraits. It´s a very fun and fresh campaign, the sad part is that the bottles are available for sale only in Europe in limited edition. Why doesn’t the Brazilian market pick up on that? […]

Glow in the Dark Super cool editorial from the italian brand Replay, photographed by Guillaume Kayacan in 2009. I’ve been to a glow party like that before, and that’s what I like about this shoot.  I remember everyone jumping around in a great glowing vibe.

11/11/2011 by chicquero

1 (one) One is a number, a numeral, and the name of the glyph representing that number. It represents a single entity, the unit of counting or measurement. 11/11/11 Today is the last binary date of the 21st century (no need to cry my numerologist geeks). Friday 11/11/11 is a powerful date if you believe in the power of the numbers.  I believe it is a good date to start something new, or to finish an old habit. What about.. Startin a volunteer job?

The ART of pumpkin carving

10/26/2011 by chicquero

Pumpkin Art Ray from Villafane Studios was born in Queens, New York. At a very young age Ray showed a knack for art; a passion that his mother approvingly encouraged him to pursue. From 1993 to 2006 Ray taught Art for students grade K-12 in Bellaire, Michigan. It was during his teaching tenure that Ray began “dabbling” in pumpkin sculpting, initially as projects with his students. After several custom-carved requests from students’ parents, Ray realized he was on to something […]
