The Gentlemaniac: martie 2013

Det by Daso+Pawas

This week I’m happy announce a little partnership with my friends over at Ghostly records to give away a free MP3 by five of their different artists as well as five amazing wallpapers by the ultra-talented Michael Cina. There’s even an iPad wallpaper version to get you prepared for the release of the iPad on Saturday.
Michael has been working with Ghostly for a little while, creating all kinds of beautiful artwork ranging from simple, minimal graphics to full on Pollock-esque paintings. The first wallpaper this week is for the band Daso+Pawas, a duo comprised of Daso Franke and Pawas Gupta who “combine their cool melodics and understated rhythmic sensibilities into a very original and appealing formula.”

Toyo Ito announced as recipient for 2013 Pritzker Prize

For nearly 40 years, Toyo Ito has pursued excellence. His work has not remained static and has never been predictable. He has been an inspiration and influenced the thinking of younger generations of architects both within his land and abroad. — Glenn Murcutt, Pritzker Juror

#Style: Shinola – The Runwell

Shinola is a new company in Detroit, committed to manufacturing a handful of goods in their 30,000 square foot factory, with hand assembled watches, bicycles and leather goods. Now available for pre-order is this handsome watch called The Runwell, reminiscent of vintage military watches and made from high quality parts and movement, with a leather strap from Horween. There really isn't anything about this watch that I don't like. The brand is building a great story and exceptional goods; I'm looking forward to seeing what's next for Shinola.
Details:
• Argonite 1069 Movement
• Three Hand Remote Sweep
• 20mm Band Width
• Brown Leather Strap with Dark Mahogany Contrast Stitch
• Hand Assembled in Detroit from Swiss Parts
