Snog Pure Frozen Yogurt, London

Snog Pure Frozen Yogurt was founded in London, 2008 by Rob Baines and Pablo Uribe. They offer high quality frozen yogurt in well designed spaces with site specific light installations created by London based design studio, Cinimod Studio who were responsible for all of the permanent UK store’s designs, including all architectural and lighting design. With 7 locations now open, and a further dozen currently being rolled out across South America, Europe and the Middle East, Cinimod Studio relishes the challenge to keep pushing the store design as far as possible. In particular, the lighting designs have become a ‘signature’ of the Snog identity, and play a crucial role in the ever-expanding social network media presence that Snog enjoys. The Soho restaurant has a bubbly ceiling inspired by the colourful neighbourhood. Westfield White City has an organic shaped kiosk with rolling lights.

Carrières de Lumières - Site officiel. Japon Rêvé est un voyage dans le Japon de l'imaginaire commun, celui des geishas, des samouraïs et des esprits, qui trouve sa source dans les estampes japonaises qui ont commencé à circuler en Europe dans la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, à l'occasion de l'ouverture des échanges commerciaux entre l'occident et le Japon.

Cette révélation de l'art japonais va bouleverser l'art occidental : la peinture des Impressionnistes et des avant-gardes, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Bonnard, mais aussi les arts décoratifs, la musique et la danse. Japon Rêvé est une miniature en forme de promenade contemplative dans les décors de ce Japon qui n'existe plus mais qui n'en finit pas de nous fasciner.

If you were to ask me in my callow years as a young art student to name my favorite painter, I would have answered without a moment’s hesitation: Wassily Kandinsky.

His theoretical bent, his mysticism, his seemingly near total creative independence…. There were times when Kandinsky the thinker, writer, and teacher appealed to me even more than Kandinsky the painter. This may go a ways toward explaining why I left art school after my first year to pursue writing and teaching. But nowadays, having seen a tiny bit more of the world and its bountiful artistic treasures, I might pause for just a moment if asked about my favorite painter… then I’d answer: Wassily Kandinsky.
