BPN Architects designed the striking home in Warwickshire, England, in 2018, and it’s now on the market for £2.5 million, or around $3.16 million — via Curbed

The update includes three new colorways, with each distinguished by its hydro-dipped, luminescent cases, newly available in black-and-white lume, green marble lume, and camouflage lume — all of which are both eye-catching in broad daylight and highly luminescent in the dark.

Tomoyuki Soeda at Deus Ex Machina‘s Japanese outpost built two customs on one base. You’re looking at a single 1982-model BMW R100 RS, dressed up in two ways. Although they look strikingly different at a glance, close inspection reveals that there are only a handful of parts that separate them. Those are the tank, headlight shroud, tail cover and exhaust system—and it takes only an Allen key and a wrench to swap them out — via Bike EXIF
The John Lautner Residence in Los Angeles, California, USA is now up for sale. It’s amazing to think that this house was designed and built back in 1940 and it is equally amazing to see the condition it is in. This isn’t a first-time on the market – it sold back in 1984. But nothing significant has been changed since Lautner designed the house for himself and his wife all those decades ago. He lived in it for around seven years, leaving after a divorce and passing the house onto his first wife — via WowHaus

This one has been updated and maintained to a very high degree, making absolutely sure that the best of its gothic features have been preserved.

The Bell & Ross BR03-92 HUD features an aesthetic that takes cues from an airplane’s HUD. The crystal is tinted green and features the same 90-degree markers you’d find in a cockpit HUD. The hour hand is a marker printed on a rotating disc, while the minute and seconds hand take a more traditional approach. The matte-finished black 42mm ceramic case is shared with the rest of the BR 03-92 collection, but this specific HUD-inspired example is limited to 999 pieces — via Hodinkee

Fugetsu-Do Confectionery first opened in 1903. It is now considered the oldest shop in LA’s Little Tokyo, and the oldest Japanese-American business in the country. The family-owned bakery is famous for one thing above all: mochi. Making this Japanese confection has been a long tradition for the Kito family, one that started over a century ago, when original owner Seiichi Kito first immigrated to the US from Japan. The art of making mochi is no easy feat, according to current owner Brian Kito, who says it took him 10 years to learn how to master the process. Crystal Lee visited Fugetsu-Do’s original location in Los Angeles to see how they make their famous rainbow dango

Chris Tope was asked by motorcycle photographer Michael Lichter to build a bike for his What’s the Skinny
exhibition at the Sturgis rally. Chris already had a suitable and very skinny donor to hand—a beat-up 1973 Penton Mudlark outside of Dallas, Texas. He’d been eyeing it for years, and now it was finally time to pull the trigger. Chris had a very specific style in mind too, dubbing his project the Ice Pick
