I’M in the midst of planning a video shoot and have been working hard to create a cohesive visual story. Because I am venturing in the audiovisual field, I definitely appreciate this video. I can literally feel how much work Solange has put in this body of work. I like the audio, but I freaking love the visuals she is serving this time around!

Just indulge!!

HOW ROUND FURNITURE PIECES ARE GOING MAINSTREAM

 

This trend has been present for A WHILE. I remember skimming through magazines and seeing these editorial vignettes featuring hyper curvy furniture. The emphasis should be on “editorial”. It always felt like this fashion worked for a magazine, but not necessarily for someones home. Like any trend, it feels like this tendency has undergone some type of evolution.

The evolution to make this style more commercial. As a result, increasingly more decor brands are introducing well-rounded furniture pieces like it’s the new black. A move away from conventional shapes and fully embracing these curves and the change in accepting “non-conventional” shapes. It goes well with the current social trend of inclusivity. Or maybe I’m looking too deep into it.

 

I was never a big fan of Fall as it stormed hard AF in Germany. Gloomy days after gloomy days with everlasting rain that made errands a daunting task. To make matters worse the days were shorter than in the lower hemisphere, which would easily push you into a temporary state of depression. Further, you couldn’t really show off your layering skills since the unpredictable weather almost forced you to wear rain attire at almost all times. The predominantly gray and brown environment added to the heaviness that one would experience visually in this part of the planet.

Moving to Boston changed EVERYTHING! I never understood the hype behind the term “Indian Summer” until I experienced it in person. Northeasterners will proudly tell you about their unique and broad range of foliage colors, which spans from golden yellow to over-saturated pink. If you’re lucky enough you may even find some purple in the mix.
