Real Time Super Mario by NullPoint84 Photographs

The Super Mario video games are so prevalent in society that Reddit user NullPoint84 probably didn’t even need to encourage anyone to participate in these Coin Block captures. In fact, all he most likely needed to do was simply sit back and wait as people were baited in by the mere sight of the highly recognizable Super Mario Coin Block.

Not only did NullPoint84 photograph these playfully candid shots, he also handmade the iconic question mark boxes himself. These Coin Block captures are simply a reward for all the hard work he put into this Nintendo-celebrating project. The shoot alone shows just how big a role this popular Nintendo game played in many people’s lives.
T
he Coin Block captures will surely inspire some to dust off their console and play a game or two.

ADIDAS ORIGINALS SUPER STAR 80S G-SNK

I had introduce glow in dark jeans in my previous post.

Adidas has introduce their new Adidas Originals Super Star 80s G-SNK ,this is a shoe that offers not one, but two different styles. The shoe is designed with a glow-in-the-dark exterior that transforms it from a white shoe with black stripes to a neon green snakeskin pattern at night or when exposed to UV light.

The Adidas Originals Super Star 80s G-SNK is the ideal shoe for anyone who easily becomes restless with their style. Shoe enthusiasts can keep it casual during the daytime with the classic white and black pattern and then switch it up come sundown. Not only is the glow-in-the-dark feature truly unique, the snakeskin pattern also adds some serious edge.

Pre-orders for Japanese and international customers are now available exclusively at atmos in Tokyo through its online store. Meanwhile, its official launch date is set for sometime in late September.

Apple Campus 2 by Foster + Partners

Here are some new images of the Apple campus by architects Foster + Partners, to be built in Cupertino, California.

The hoop-shaped office building will be located a few blocks away from Apple’s existing headquarters and will accommodate up to 13,000 employees.

The campus will provide office, research and development facilities, as well as a company fitness centre, a cafe and a 1000-seat auditorium.

A circular park for staff is proposed for the centre of the building.

Two further buildings will provide additional research facilities, whilst an onsite power plant will provide the majority of electricity for the campus.

Dezeen announced that Norman Foster was working on designs for the Apple campus back in December .



The following project details are from the architects:

This new development will provide a serene and secure environment reflecting Apple’s values of innovation, ease of use and beauty.

Click above for larger image
The state-of-the-art office, research and development facilities include strategies to minimize energy demand, reduce car travel and increase the use of reclaimed water.

Click above for larger image
The single building comprises approximately 2.8 million square feet over four stories.

Campus amenities will include a striking café within the main building, a separate corporate fitness center and a corporate auditorium seating 1,000 people. Parking will be provided under the main building and in one multi-story parking structure along the 280 Freeway.

Click above for larger image
The Campus will feature an on-site low carbon Central Plant situated along the 280 Freeway that will supply the majority of the power needed for the Campus.

In addition, research facilities comprising approximately 300,000 square feet will be located east of North Tantau Avenue. These buildings will house technical support functions that need to be located adjacent to the main building.

Project Objectives
The objectives of the proposed project are to:

• To maximize efficiency and convenience to Apple’s employees, develop a news campus in close proximity to Apple’s Infinite Loop Campus.
• Create a new campus that provides for co-location of services and consolidation of employees in a single distinctive office, research and development building, thereby promoting shared creativity and collaboration, reducing the overall building footprint on the site, and maximizing the amount of landscaped green space.
• Create a physically unified campus community that respects Apple’s security needs (in part through perimeter protection), improves internal circulation and eliminates unnecessary access points by consolidating the existing properties within the campus.
• Optimize the site design to balance cut and fill operations to the maximum extent practicable and create a grading plan that accommodates the single distinctive building design.
• Respond to Apple’s current and future business needs with a campus plan that maximizes employee use and incorporates design and use flexibility to respond to future business needs.
• Minimize the reliance on electricity provided by the grid by generating a significant amount of the Campus’s energy needs at an on-site Central Plant.
• Accommodate up to 13,000 employees.
• Provide an expanse of open and green space for Apple employees’ enjoyment.
• Create a distinctive and inspiring 21st Century workplace.
• Exceed economic, social, and environmental sustainability goals through integrated design and development.

OK Go and The Muppets - Muppet Show Theme Song

From their New The Green Album

Amy Winehouse X Fred Perry

Amy Winehouse x Fred Perry consists of 27 pieces that were produced by the clothing designer and the pop star. In light of her recent passing, the company was hesitant to release her clothing line, but with the consent of her family, the line will soon be released in honor of Winehouse and her still-growing fan base. The royalties and fees from the collection will be donated to the established Amy Winehouse Foundation.

The Amy Winehouse x Fred Perry collection is so great because of its ability to capture Winehouse and the Fred Perry aesthetic all in one. Winehouse always had such a unique and beautiful relaxed fashion style- and now because of the collaboration with Fred Perry, all of her fans can buy similar clothes.
