NY – If you’re still trying to find ways to support the victims of Sandy, have we got a great a suggestion and it’s just in time for the holidays. Storm Support was the brainchild of graphic designer Walter Shock, who along with friends and colleagues Jesse Resnick and Anshay Bhatia, created an e-commerce site that showcases a line of t-shirts and tote bags that sport original artwork inspired by the aftermath of Sandy. They wanted to do something to make a difference so they used their talents to create something.

Now you can do something to make a difference by making a purchase and of course the best part is that 100% of the profits go to aiding those affected by the powerful hurricane.  We love the cool designs and classic simplicity that promises to make any merchandise from Storm Support not only an ideal gift but quite possibly a collector’s item.

A Window Into Central Park

A Window Into Central Park

The Gate in Central Park

 

At The Downtown Project, “downtown” is really a state of mind – a creative force, an inspiration.  Nothing says that better to us than the windows at Tiffany & Co.

Currently the company’s Fifth Avenue flagship store is paying tribute to the Central Park Conservancy with five gorgeous new windows that feature the famous park and the jewelry haven’s elegant baubles.

The first window on Fifth Avenue features the Conservancy Garden’s elaborate wrought-iron gates.   Others include the Angel of Bethesda Fountain, The Great Lawn, an aerial view of the park and reservoir and scenes of the park’s dairy, lakes and the boathouse.  Let us know if the windows inspire you too!
