Brione House - Switzerland

Set in the Swiss countryside this home resembles medieval ruins. Upon closer observation one notices the amazing craftsmanship that has gone into creating the exterior not to mention the perfectly set pool. The minimalist interior architecture is the cherry on top. Image courtesy of ArchDaily. More on the house here.

Supervision by Eun-Gyeong Gwon

One of the niftiest gadgets we have seen in a while. Not only is the design impeccable but it is also incredibly useful. "The electronic budget diary scans receipts, charts money coming in/out, talks to your bank, and gives you monthly expense details so you can balance your finances more effectively - or for most people, at all. The display doubles as a touchscreen and comes with a stylus so you can manage your monies the old fashioned way too." - Image and information courtesy of the Yanko Design website.

Offering free shipping and returns to many locations Revolve makes online shopping a breeze. Image courtesy of the Revolve Clothing website.

All we can say is Yebo.
