3D Portraits Made From Phone Books
Alex Queral creates amazing three-dimensional portraits by carving faces of famous people into recycled phone books.
Using a very sharp knife, the artist carefully peels away the pages like the skin of an onion to reveal the portrait within.
More details here.

15th Avenue E Coffee & Tea by Starbucks
Repurposed and reimagined, Starbucks has gone back to basics with the launch of their 15th Avenue E Coffee and Tea store. The first of three experimental stores in Seattle, this Capitol Hill location loses the ubiquitous Starbucks branding and adopts the ambience of a traditional neighborhood coffeehouse. Completely gutted and redesigned using a plethora of recycled, reclaimed and refurbished eco-friendly materials, this old store is now primed and ready to play neighborhood host to live music and poetry readings.
Is anyone loving this as much as I am? Gorgeous....
