Contrasting to Bansky's satirical, dark humour street art, artist Sandrine Estrade Boulet has a different take on her street art. Unlike Bansky, everything in Sandrine's eyes are beautiful, humoruos and cheering. Sandrine Estrade Boulet imagines an alternate world in her works, she adds a dynamic and creative spin on daily life scenes and objects like a big mac box on the sidewalk, trash bags, motorcycles delivering pizzas, a broken umbrella, cracks on a wall...

Sandrine Estrade Boulet also published a book on her arts- Hello City!: Urbane Poesie. You can buy the book from the Amozon store.

The Mexican tequila brand, Casa Dragones and renowned artist Gabriel Orozco have collaborated to produce a limited-edition bottle adorned with one of the artist's most iconic works of art. The collaboration comes in honour of Orozco's 2011 retrospective tour held in four leading museums throughout 2011, from MoMA in New York City, Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland, Tate Modern in London, to Centre Pompidou in Paris. The partnership centres around Orozco's 'Black Kites' piece, a human skull that is covered in an intricate graphic checkerboard.

Each one of the 400 crystal bottles are engraved with Gabriel Orozco's Black Kites motif, and includes Orozco's signature. Black Kites, 1997 is a human skull covered in an intricate graphic checkerboard, representing the two sides of life that are constantly at odds; the grid represents rationality and the skull represents uncertainty.

Each bottle signed numbered and dated by hand.

Architectmade wooden BIRDs family designed by Kristian Vedel are one of the best Christmas gift idea for your kids or adults this festive season beside the popular iPad Mini. Kristian Vedel first designed this family of BIRDs - children, parents and grandparents back in 1959. Though only the small BIRD was set in production, it quickly became one of the most successful Danish wooden products from the 50s.

Today, the entire expressive BIRD family has been re-introduced. They are all handmade by a small wood turner in Denmark who only uses high quality smoked and natural oak wood. By tilting their heads in virtually any direction, the BIRDs can express every frame of mind - happy, sad, curious, alert, etc. The bodies can be turned upside down making it either a male or female. There are no borders to the expressions of the BIRDs and whatever you are experiencing, they want to experience it with you. Happiest when in groups of other BIRDS, they are vigilant companions to your everyday life.

The BIRD is a truly charming design object for the joyful season.
