House R by Sharon Neuman Architects
Israeli firm Sharon Neuman Architects have completed House R located in Kfar Yedidia, Israel. The use of geometric volumes and voids are used to define the areas within the dwelling as well as add visual interest from an exterior perspective. This feature results in living spaces of varying heights and is used to separate one room to the next in an otherwise uninterrupted flowing of spaces. Surrounded by agricultural fields, the juxtaposed volumes maintain a strong connection with the landscape creating a distinctly one-of-a-kind abode.

Skin: A Film by Ryan Hope
Directed by Ryan Hope, Skin is a dark, stylish examination of tattoo culture as high art and a film that tests the boundaries of the medium and the human body. The film features contributions from notable artists such as Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons and Raymond Pettibon, in association with Dasha Zhukova’s Garage Magazine. Today marks the first day in which the entire artistic endeavor can be viewed by the general public thanks to the generosity from Christie’s, the world’s leading art business, and W Hotels.
PROCESS: Parabellum Leather Goods
It goes without saying that domestic production has become an important facet of menswear over the past few years. Many hoping for a well-made product with great historical value can often look close to home and with good reason. The folks of Parabellum have been some of the best known purveyors of American-made accessories with their beautiful bison leather bags and accessories. We were fascinated by the unique interest they have in bison leather which in itself is a bit of a rarity. Here lies an interesting look into some important steps that go into the making of a Parabellum bag, most notably the “Medicine Man” Duffel Bag. Of course not all steps are shown here but it should give you a good idea of what exists in America’s storied production landscape. Unfortunately due to the sensitivity of the craft, we were unable to show some of Parabellum’s beautifully-crafted ceramic work but the processing of leather and the creation of the buckles are both presented.
