Universal Works has revealed the latest installment of its Hotel de Luxe concept, expanding the world of the fictional hotel. The new release focuses on relaxed summer pieces, taking inspiration from a diverse mix of places including skate park culture, Lake Como luxury, and the music of The Specials.
The collection incorporates some of the brand’s best-loved pieces, all of which are reinterpreted through the Hotel de Luxe lens.

There is always more than meets the eye in the work of the artist duo Linus Bill + Adrien Horni (both b. 1982, CH). What is seemingly a conventionally looking abstract painting bears extensive processes of transformation, revaluation, and experimentation that subvert painting itself. Despite their appearance, it could be argued that their works resemble paintings, yet they are not. Rather, they are images in perpetual modification which, among different processes, have been painted on. As a matter of fact, Linus Bill + Adrien Horni do not consider themselves painters: Bill studied photography, while Horni is trained a graphic designer.
Nonetheless, they chose painting as their medium since they first started working together in 2011. In their continuous quest to repurpose and expand their work, Midlife Painting is the result of an intuitive revaluation of existing images in which the circumstance of failure leads to success.

Japanese artist MUUK’s upcoming Cream Biscuit Boy gacha minis from MUUKTOY x Qualia feature the cute cookie toys in a desk friendly ~2″ size. There are six standards designs in with both square and round cream biscuits three colorways. These production editions carry the charm of the larger original designs with their simple faces and minimalist design — arms and legs with the cream biscuit body. Adding to the good news is the fact that collectors can order exactly the design they want. Interestingly there are also two ‘rare’/chase figures in the form of the Dark Vanilla editions in both square and round variations.
