WELCOME TO THE FOBE HOUSE | A SPELLBINDING SILENT TALE | PART II

‘Architecture exists, like cinema, in the dimension of time and movement. One conceives and reads a building in terms of sequences. To erect a building is to predict and seek effects of contrast and linkage through which one passes (…). In the continuous shot/sequence that a building is, the architect works with cuts and edits,...

WELCOME TO THE FOBE HOUSE | A SPELLBINDING SILENT TALE | PART I

‘I call architecture frozen music…; the influence that flows upon us from architecture is like that from music,’ are Goethe’s words and a concept that seems to be beautifully understood by French architect Guilhem Eustache. He has designed the majestically modest Fobe House in Marrakech, Morocco for Belgian producer/director Dimitri de Clercq. When we spoke...

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN PRE-FALL 2013 COLLECTION

Pre-fall lines are the more understated of all seasons; not as striking and whimsical as a summer line, nor as heavy and elaborate as a winter range. Practicality is key, when one takes to making clothing for commercial, day-to-day purposes rather than creating elaborate designs that make a statement. Or is it? Sarah Burton for...

‘LET’S ROCK THIS PARTY LIKE IT’S 1955′

A lot of us will know Them Tornados. They’ve had many of us swing our body parts about at the one or other Cape Town show. Sadly, their sound — rockabilly — has always appeared to be a rather isolated venture in this city. With more and more bands that loosely fall into the psychobilly/rockabilly...
