neo working his illustrating magic

Florian Nicolle, aka Neo, is a young artist-graphic designer-illustrator. He is French, lives in Caen, France, and has studied Graphic design and developed a love for illustrations in the process. He is using a mixed technique while working, and is looking to create his own style, and I think he has greatly succeeded.

gossip girl's sets

This time around I decided to look into the set designing behind the series Gossip Girl. I was lucky enough to find out that the set designer, the very talented Cristina Tonkin has her own site with all of her work and that where I found these great pictures. The space I love more is the humphrey loft in Brooklyn, which is an open plan apartment with a very authentic real life sense to it.
