			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Chill out in London alert!</p>
<p>Yes we know it&#8217;s a bit late for summer but never too late for Ice Cream right?</p>
<p>Europe&#8217;s first liquid nitrogen ice cream parlor has hit the streets in London&#8217;s Camden town.</p>
<p>Well equipped with lab coats and zany goggles, the staff whips, or rather carefully pours, the nitrogen to the custard mixture, creating a cosmic cream for you to enjoy. That gives you the possibility to experience the making of bespoke ice-creams frozen on-site, while the rest of the space is an experimental kitchen dedicated to the development of modern confections.</p>
<p>Yes, we have finally entered the age of The Jetsons!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jurassic-era soil, c. 200 million BC. Metropolitan sidewalks, c. 2010 AC.</p>
<p>Few would argue the two have much in common.</p>
<p>But it&#8217;s easy to imagine both as stomping grounds for Tiffany Tuttle&#8217;s latest collection of shoes with unlined, raw leathers creasing into bone-hard, sculpted heels.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was looking at dinosaur fossils,&#8221; says the LD Tuttle designer of the inspiration behind her fall 2010 collection.</p>
<p>To prove the ease and grace of her heavily wedged designs, she teamed up with photographer Zen Sekizawa to create a video that shows the shoes &#8220;in a state of flux, so they are creating and finishing off the line of the body.&#8221;</p>
<p>LD Tuttle is exclusively stocked at 4.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tokyo has recently seen the re-opening of Lift étage. Lift has been one of the first multi label boutiques in Japan since it&#8217;s opening in 1993.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Brutalism is the term coined to describe the raw architecture often made with concrete during the 1950s and 1960s.</p>
<p>They don&#8217;t fit into the streets and city centers where they appear but their strength and power speak of a time when people had seen architecture as a force for civic good. These structures were solid spaces to create a solid and strong world emerging from the gloom of WW2.</p>
<p>These buildings are evidence of a modernism, a time when we didn&#8217;t dress up architecture but left it cold and honest for all to see.</p>
