Quick Picks Week 50, 2013 – Featuring pretty bridal accessories, a time-lapse of London, & a Pinterest advent calendar.

Quick Picks


There are just 11 days until Christmas, which means we have one week left to wrap up the work we plan to deliver this year. So without further ado, here’s this week’s quick pick of internet finds. As usual, good things come in threes…


Weddings

The Knot are predicting that Pantone’s colour of the year for 2014, Radiant Orchid, will be a hot colour for weddings.

I think the idea of adding a label with the date of your wedding to your dress is so sweet.

I was attracted to Twigs and Honey because of their gorgeous hair adornments for brides, but they also make beautiful wedding dresses, veils and bridal accessories.

Art & Design

ART+COM created the Infinite Cube, a moving installation of silver spheres that flow into a series of abstract shapes as a test setup for their kinetic sculpture “The Shape of things to Come” at Munich’s BMW Museum. Note: This link will take you to a video which may play automatically.

The Festival of Lights in Lyon has just made in on to my list of places to visit.

Photographer Paul Richardson has created a mesmerising time-lapse video that captures the hustle and bustle of everyday life in London. Note: This link will take you to a video which may play automatically.

Random Asides

As I mentioned last week, our random links for the next few weeks are all about Christmas.

The Weekend Edition has a great wrap up of pop-up shops and Christmas markets around Brisbane this weekend.

The face of Brisbane City Hall will be the venue for a 3D animated Christmas light show every night from now until Christmas Eve.

Digital Agency, Dare have turned Pinterest into a video advent calendar which tells the story of an artificial Christmas tree.

That’s it for another week’s quick picks. Have a great weekend!
