Armani’s Visual Team collaborated with Shop Studios sculptures and artists creating the Armani Exchange Christmas window display. Armani brought sketches and a design concept as a starting point and Shop Studios fabricated and installed the window display.
WATCH THE BEHIND THE SCENES VIDEO OF SHOP STUDIOS:
Eric Steding, Shop’s Designer and Jacques Rosas, Shop’s Artist, and co-founders of Shop Studio’s first inspiration was to guild with silver leaf to bring the forms together and move away from the glassy, bubbly look that the original sculpture had. Silver leaf is a delicate, time-consuming process that gives sculptures a unique, elegant, hand-made look and cannot be replicated by machine. This technique would bring the artistry aspect of the deer inspiration back into the design, giving it that original edge. The results sparkle on 5th and 51st street across from ST Patrick’s Cathedral and Rock Center.

best-window-displays_ted-baker_2013_christmas_merry-kissmas_01
To celebrate the launch of their Christmas campaign, Ted Baker has created a large scale digital Mistletoe installation situated on top of store entrances, exclusively at three stores globally, titled ‘Merry Kissmas’.
The three stores participating are New York 5th Avenue, London Westfield and Tokyo’s Omotesando. To sit alongside this exclusive window scheme designed and realised by Kin Design, Ted will also be hosting a digital and social media ‘Meet Me Under the Mistletoe’ campaign, where Ted Baker will call out to customers and members of the public around the world, passing by or visiting the select stores to take a photo under the mistletoe. Utilizing personal Twitter and Instagram profiles with the hash tag #KissTed they will then automatically be entered into a competition to win a romantic luxury holiday for two.

Ted Baker asked Tangible Interaction to create a custom social media visualizer for their campaign. It’s based on their Social Mosa (twitter and Instagram Wall) application created for the event industry. The Tangible Interaction team redesigned the visualizer to incorporate campaign branding and added windswept snowflakes. Also in the generative animation, falling snowballs provide a canvas for tweets and Instagrams. The “Merry Kissmas” visualizer displays on screens installed in the Ted Baker 5th Ave, NYC store windows until 22nd December. To take part, customers take ‘selfie’ photos kissing under the mistletoe installation. They tag them #kissted and post to Instagram or Twitter. Before any tagged photo is included in the visualizer, it’s quickly filtered for suitability byTed Baker US staff using Tangible’s social media content ‘Monitor’ tool on an iPad. The whole process from posting to visualizer takes only a few seconds. The result is a beautifully designed seasonal animation that not only grabs attention at street level but also generates positive buzz about Ted Baker online and encourages social media echo.

About Tangible Interaction’s Social Mosa
Social Mosa displays crowd-sourced tweets and Instagrams in a generative animation on venue screens. Think of it as a live conversation visualizer. Using their own smartphones, event guests tweet and send Instagrams with the hashtag created by you. Social Mosa continually searches for that content, then grabs and pulls it down into the Mosaic animation. Along the way, every tweet and Instagram is manually filtered using the company’s Monitor application. It’s a quick, simple process that guarantees negative comments or images won’t make it to screen.

VANILLA PEACH COFFEE CAKE!!

Did you know that the fruit this summer is supposed to be the best it has been in years? Apparently, fruit loves hot weather. I personally have eaten more peaches and cherries this summer than I have in about five years just for that reason.  As I have been a little overzealous lately buying peaches and cherries I found myself with a few peaches that were going to be too ripe for me to eat on the same day. That is unless I wanted to have them for every meal plus a few snacks. So I decided to make this recipe for Vanilla Peach Coffee Cake.  Vanilla Peach Coffee Cake Adapted from  Allrecipes.com Batter: 2 eggs 1 C milk 1/2 C oil 1 tsp. vanilla 1/2 C  sour cream 3 C flour 1 C sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. baking soda Topping: 5 or 6 large peaches, diced. 3 Tbsp. butter, melted 11/4 C brown sugar 1Tbsp. cinnamon 2 tsp. nutmeg 4 Tbsp. flour Vanilla Icing: 1 Tbsp. butter 1 tsp

PRESENT TOPIARY TO DECORATE YOUR PORCH AND FRONT DOOR!

   This comes from www.thatvillagehouse.blogspot.com .  I made something similar a couple years ago, without the pots.  It was about 6 feet high.  I got the inspiration from a Chirstmas dectoration that we bought at Target. This is a very good idea and make a great enterance to your home.  So here's a little something to thing about for next year.  Before you know it December will be here again.  You could also do something like this for an Easter theme.   Enjoy! A Merry Welcome! So here is my first Christmas project for the year!! I saw something similar at our church's Advent celebration & pretty much straight up copied it. I couldn't help it. It was love at first sight! I plan to make a 2nd stack to go on the other side of my door, so I'm not completely done, but I thought I would share it with you anyway. I started with 3 different sized boxes...9, 12 & 14 inch cubes. I used an ice pick to punch holes in each of them so that I could run

SAPPORO SNOW FESTIVAL FROM JAPAN!!!

     The Sapporo Snow Festival is a famous festival held annually in Sapporo, Japan, over 7 days in February.  Currently, Odori Park, Susukino, and Tsudome are the main sites of the festival.  The 2011 Yuki-matsuri dates are February 7th to the 13th.    The festival is one of Japan's largest and most distinctive winter events.  In 2007, about 2 million people visited Sapporo to see the hundreds of snow statues and ice sculptures at the Odori Park and Suskino sites, in central Sapporo, and the Satoland site.  The festival is thought to be an opportunity for promoting international relations. The International Snow Sculpture Contest has been held at the Odori Park sit since 1974, and teams from various regions of the world participate.      The subject of the statues varies and often features as event, famous building or person from the previous yer.  For example, in 2004, there were statues of Hideki Matsui, the famous baseball player who at that time pl
