Moto Guzzi SP 1000

Moto Guzzi SP 1000

This lovely Moto Guzzi 1000 SP custom is the latest creation from prolific Italian custom shop Officine RossoPuro. It’s called the TTre—a reference to Guzzi’s classic T3 nomenclature and the Isle of Man TT. As an SP, this is one of the last Guzzis to use the desirable Tonti frame: it also sported a large windshield and a rather awkward lower fairing, with cutouts for the huge V-twin cylinders. Today, this makes the SP less desirable and therefore cheaper than most classic Guzzis. That’s good news for builders like Filippo Barbacane, who appreciate the underlying aesthetics of the bike — via Bike EXIF

The small house of approximately 200 m2 is built in a new residential development adjacent to a traditional neighborhood. FyF can be described as a spatial and physical attempt to challenge the planar stability and flat homogeneity of the Pampas landscape in a domestic setting. The project was conceived as a monolithic solid, a monochromatic form punctuated only by subtle inflections that establish a complex physical relationship among the different spaces while maintaining a sense of identity and privacy between them — via ArchDaily

Fabien Cacheux designed it to have a perlage decorated drum case, Bugatti logo, and an interesting strap system. Less than a year later, a more practical version of the piece is being made – but in very limited quantities and it will be called the Cacheux Elephant Automatic — via A Blog to Read

Casa Batlló / Antoni Gaudí

Casa Batlló / Antoni Gaudí

The inspiring imagination of Antoni Gaudí undoubtedly reveals itself in one of his most poetic and artistic designs for a building, Casa Batlló. His synthesis of animal shapes, vine-like curves, hints of bone and skeleton, and his use of lustrous colored bits of glazed ceramic and glass create a masterpiece that will forever astonish its observers — via ArchDaily
