The Contrasting Faces of China in Art Photography
Today Cruzine presents a photo gallery dedicated to China. This country, which was hidden from the Western world behind the Great Wall for centuries to protect its traditions and preserve its lifestyle and culture, amazes the whole world today with its rapid growth in terms of both quantity and quality. For many centuries, China was a secret for European and North American people; though it was China that gave papermaking, compass, gunpowder and printing to the Mankind. Today, the curtain is parted (at least, partially), and people from the entire world can learn all the variety of the Chinese microcosm with its specific coloring, shapes, and phenomena.
China is a country of contrast; and the way foreigners perceive China also varies greatly. On one hand, China is the country where the high technology industry flourishes with hundreds of world’s top companies’ production facilities located there. On the other hand, the label “Made in China” is often treated as the synonym of poor quality. Such contrast is also vividly illustrated on the images, presented below. The unique landscapes and sceneries of divine Nature interweave with the pictures of overcrowded and industrialized cities. Ancient wisdom and unique culture, cherished by many generations, is now under the powerful influence of globalization. Today, the face of China may transform, trying to adapt to the global challenges, but, hopefully, modern China will succeed in preserving and multiplying the great legacy, once generated by one of the world’s richest cultures.
Iconic Boutique Hotel In Los Angeles
Boutique Hotel
The project includes renovation of all 91 rooms and suites, the famous Champagne Bar, and the hotel’s restaurant and private dining rooms. A significant part of the investment will be in technology to modernise bedrooms and the public spaces. Additionally, a further 12 villas will be developed within the hotel’s 12-acre grounds that are home to some of Los Angeles’ most beautiful gardens. The hotel will re-open with a new spa by La Prairie Switzerland that will feature seven treatment rooms and three junior spa suites.
Champalimaud has set the design style for most of the interiors and exteriors, including a new reception and boutique, new lobby lounge, all 103 guestrooms and suites, the spa and three guest lofts located within the new 12,000 square feet spa building. Each of the rooms is individually decorated with custom fabrics and luxurious Italian linens.
PLAY! Design for Kids
The focus in the “Kids-Edition” of the design calendar series is again on the experimental handling of typography. EIGA’s designers have given their playful side free reign and used all their creative weapons to produce scripts inspired by their children or their own childhood days.

The Cyphernaut Series by FKSD
Fictitious designs are a good chance for me to experiment with colors, shapes and typography without any limitation. Here I created the “Cyphernaut Series” which should look dark but with a prominent color.
