THE POWER OF TILES

The Ishtar Gate in the Pergamon Museum in Berlin

Really impressive sample of how crafts can be majestic. Very small tiles building something so pharaonic. It was a unique experience to check with my on eyes such a beautiful hand crafted work.

Werner Herzog inspiration help

Ok ok, I confess I am writing this post because I am ordinary like anyone else and want to say that I saw Herzog in person this weekend in a lecture at Royal Festival Hall.

Well, besides it, I think this part of the lecture is a good example to show that we get inspired by anything even if it is something really really stupid.

It is good to see someone so respected like him saying something like that.





Of course I do not want to compare myself with him, but there are some images that I capture and I though it may be a good inspiration.

The below one is the image which first called my attention. I saw it and it was so colorful, so great, so very well done and so delicious, that I had to take a picture of it.



And as Leonard Cohen says:

“Everybody wants a box of chocolate”.

So, why not be inspired by candy?



The next one is a pattern that I really liked. Therefore, It may be something that I will work on my project as a graphic reference. This picture was taken at the Lacoste Store as you can check.
