GoGo Paris

Nikki S. Lee
(18 March 2005) - While reading the premier issue of the hot new Theme Magazine, I was reminded of the work from Korean photographer Nikki S. Lee.

Prior to creating the photograph, in which she is always one of the subjects, Lee becomes...

(07 December 2004) - Most designers I know (myself included) read an enormous amount of magazines for both research and pleasure. A rather displeasing side-effect is the hideous amount of paper waste that results from this habit. Lekkerhome has a solution: hand crafted vases made from used design magazines.
