Christian Lacroix Apartement-le-Marais
This article is a little old, but to have a glimpse into Haute couturier Christian Lacroix's 2,150-square-foot apartment in the Marais district of Paris is a find! It's gorgeous in it's authentic Parisan state of French doors opening onto pretty balconies. Check out photos of la maison here.

Ink Calendar
"Ink Calendar" make use the timed pace of the ink spreading on the paper to indicate time.
The ink is absorbed slowly, and the numbers in the calendar are "printed" daily. One a day, they are filled with ink until the end of the month. A calendar self-updated, which enhances the perception of time passing and not only signaling it.
The ink colors are based on a spectrum, which relate to a “color temperature scale”, each month having a color related to our perception of the whether on that month. The colors range from dark blue in December to, three shades of green in spring or oranges, red in the summer.
The scale for measuring the “color temperature” that I have used is a standard called ‘D65’ and corresponds roughly to a midday sun in Western / Northern Europe.
The "Ink Calendar" was developed for “Gradual “, an exhibition featuring works, which were evolving during the exhibition time at the London Design Festival 2007.
