1 | Wes Anderson’s Colour Palettes: this week Another Mag shared an old article of 2014 on Twitter celebrating the world-building colour palettes of Wes Anderson’s imagination. “The fictional worlds evoked in film by director Wes Anderson have such a precise colouration – the very particular pastel-hues that paint the skies, drench the buildings and dress the characters, render Anderson’s microcosms almost dream-like. The hazy-hued lens through which we peer into the director’s unique world has a retro quality that casts his films in a nostalgia for a time that could have been.”

2 | Jennifer Nehrbass Collage Paintings: you know I love collages and American artist Jennifer Nehrbass has a unique way of creating collages. Except that they are NOT collages but oil paintings! Nehrbass starts her process with collages that she then recreate in large-scale, almost identically with paint. Woo-hoo!

3 | Greenterior Book: “Greenterior: Plant Loving Creatives and Their Homes“, Magali Elali and Bart Kiggen of the Belgian online magazine Coffeeklatch — a destination for lovely interviews and photography – released a book called Greenterior, which looks at the homes of designers and artists through the lens of their abundant houseplants. Each tour is accompanied by a chat with the artist about their emotional connection to nature, as well as a guide to the greenery within. A useful plant care guide, with tips on watering, light levels, and propagation, ends the book. Great for our shelves. And homes.
