The digital columns of Michael Hansmeyer

Lazer cut from individual layers of cardboard, these amazing structures are formed by a multitude of thin slices that when put together form these incredible intricate structures.











Let there be light

The chandeliers of Terzani just caught my eye: simple elegant and fluid.





MOVIE TIME - Female trouble

This 1974 cult movie by infamous film director John Waters follows the life and times of mean teen Dawn Davenport (Divine), who turns to a life of crime when her parents fail to give her the cha-cha heels she wants for Christmas. With her illegitimate daughter (Mink Stole) and delinquent girlfriends beside her, she becomes a bizarre canvas for the fascist Lipstick Beauty Salon owners Donald and Donna Dasher.


Nice girls don't wear Cha Cha heels


I hope I get arrested!



"I've DONE everything a mother can do: I've locked her in her room, I've beat her with the car aerial. 
Nothing changes her. It's HARD being a loving mother!"



"Anyone particularly appalling?"
"Well, yes, there is a Dawn Davenport. She seems especially cheap. You may like her."


"Our experiment involved beauty and crime, we feel them to be one."


"Why don't you take your f&$%ing toolkit and go f&%£ a garage"



"If I catch you spying and nosing around one more time, I'm going
to put you in the mental hospital."


"How many times have I told you to play car accident outside?!"




"We have a theory that crime enhances ones beauty."


"The worse the crime, the more ravishing one becomes."


"...my daughters retarded. A child psychologist told me to beat her unmercifully."



"I'm scared rats are gonna come out and bite my new nylons."



"Just think of it: house robbing, new gowns, murder, scars, fingerprints, lashes!"




"And remember my offer still stands. If you get tired of being a Hare Krishna, 
you come live with me and be a lesbian! 





"I called the heroin hot line on Abby Hoffman!"

Modern Day Beanstalks

I love green - I love how people are using green in architecture and in ways that integrate it more and more into our daily lives. These vertical forests and roof gardens are some of the best green thinking I've found.














Coining it in design

If this design made out of coins doesn't blow your hair back - then I don't know what will.
