Fairy Tale…

Jikka, meaning ‘parents’ home’ in Japanese, is the brain-child of lifelong welfare workers, Nobuko Suma and Sachiko Fujioka.  Together, they commissioned Nobuko’s son, the Tokyo-based architect Issei Suma, to build them a multi-purpose home, with architectural quirks to help them live out their days in style. Viewed from afar, Jikka appears to be a cluster of magical, fairy tale dwarf homes.  But in reality, the hilltop teepees are actually a private retirement home.  Jikka…down to earth and back to nature…

‘Hygge’ is BIG’s A45…

hygge is a Danish word that describes a mood of coziness or comfort, with feelings of wellness and happiness.  Who doesn’t want some of that?  As Chicago’s trees take on their fall color, BIG‘s tiny cabin beckons a city dweller to the northern woods.

The tiny house is similar to an a-frame cabin.  However, A45 has a square base with a twisting roofline, which provides a new take on the traditional style. The prefabricated cabin is assembled on site and includes an open-plan living and sleeping area with small cooktop, bath and a lofted area.

Tiny Hand Font and a Pink Barrier…

…BuzzFeed designer, Mark Davis, has made a freely available font version of Donald Trump’s handwriting, appropriately named Tiny Hand.  (A peaceful protest by cabbagerose?  You decide.)  The Tiny Hand typeface recreates Trump’s distinctive handwritten style, from the strangely angular Js to the dramatically curved Bs, Ds and Gs. Davis has designed several different versions of each letter, to recreate the haphazard nature of Trump’s scrawl, including a particularly unusual spiky B.
