STUDIO B

Sunday, June 10, 2012

Since the world cup in Germany in 2006, public viewings of the football cups have become a beautiful tradition in Germany, and there’s hardly a café, restaurant or bar that has not large-screen transmission during the euro cup.

EUROTWENTYTWELVE

Friday, June 8, 2012

Tonight we hear, there is some kind of big sports event, so a Mr David Watson’s incredibly stylish poster designs to accompany the Euro Cup’s kickoff are a perfect reminder what the buzz is all about.

FANTASTIC SPIN

Tuesday, September 13, 2011

Fashion and film are an odd match somehow – what works so well with photography, as in clothes + imagery = seduction, seems to have a hard time to really touch ground with motion film, for some reason. But there is always hope when talented minds such as the guys at Fantastic Man set their [...]

FIGHT CLUB

Bratwurst + Beer + Boxing at Berlin’s finest beer garden = pretty good deal… at least if you’re not already pigged-out and hungover from Saturday’s amateur soccer + Grill Royal Wurst mayhem, I guess.
