Top Shelf: 2016 Range Rover SVAutobiography







Owning a vehicle really does change your life. And then there’s owning a luxury vehicle. It becomes an upgrade on your lifestyle in ways that you may not even be aware of, until it becomes an actual part of that everyday life. And when you’re able to integrate this new machine into your coming’s and going’s, you realize how much more freedom and access you’ve been afforded since that costly purchase was made. But do we ever really care about the cost? Not when you’re rolling around in something as beautiful as the new Range Rover. 

Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations division raises the bar once again with the forthcoming 2016 Range Rover SVAutobiography. The word modest did not come into play during the design of this vehicle, which boasts 542 hp through an optional supercharged V8 that comes specially tuned for the new SVAutobiography edition. Aside from the lavishly embellished interior, which one can expect as standard from the Range Rover brand, this upcoming top-of-the-line model also features an “Event Seating” configuration, consisting of two seats that can be affixed to the tailgate.

Kicks Flow: Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Moire “Wolf Grey”




Awesome..

First impression is everything for sneaker heads. That initial reaction you get when you first see a shoe that you may end up coppin’. What’s odd, is that comfort used to play no part in what we bought back in the day. If it looked good, we wanted to rock it. And that aesthetic is what we’re all still kind of looking for these days. We’ve gotten wiser though, so we want comfort and style to go hand-in-hand these days. And when you see a shoe that can provide both, you’d better pick up a pair, or maybe two if you have a little extra moola in the stash that day.

Although Air Max Day is now behind us, Nike continues to give their world famous Air Max 1 silhouette the Ultra Moire treatment as they present a new “Wolf Grey” colorway. Decked out in a neutral, tonal color palette, the signature perforated upper offers additional breathability for the warm months ahead. In addition, the lighter sole comes equipped with the titular exposed Air bubble for a decidedly summer-appropriate sneaker. These are available now, so you can pick up a pair from Berlin sneaker boutique Overkill.

Get yours..

Architecture: Txai House by Studio MK27






















Resting roughly 13 meters above sea level, Txai House by Studio MK27 boasts a breathtaking ocean view, located in the northeast of Brazil. Brazilian architecture is undeniably prevalent throughout the two-story home, with the exterior showcasing multiple colorful hues. 

The large living room is settled on the first floor, as well as the kitchen, with both rooms extending to a sizable veranda that has been comprised of wood and also features a utility area and a washroom. A breathtaking infinity pool can be found just beyond said veranda, as the roof of the first floor then highlights an open, wooden deck that provides for magnificent views of the ocean.

Each of the bedrooms can be found on the second floor, with the separate floors being connected only externally, as a garden acts as the exterior passageway between floors. The bathrooms extend from the roof and are all open to the outside.

The weather has been nicer, maybe too hot lately. And the streets of Cali have been full of the latest whips going up and down the strip. Their owners full of pride as they push their newest toys down the block. And this is what happens when the sun starts hanging out for a little longer each day. People want to stunt.

Backington..

Some shoes will never get old to you, when you have a long history with them. For me, it’s always been those kicks I had as a kid and begged my parents to buy multiple pairs for me. That nostalgia will make you spend on them today too, just to relive that feeling that you had back in the day. One of the shoes that i couldn’t get enough of back in the day, were the Pegasus from Nike.

Kicks Flow: Nike Air Max 90 “Cork”


I was in Paris not too long ago. And one of the coolest parts of the trip was being able to spend time with some of the designers from Nike who had made the trek out there to show off some of their newest creations on their way to shelves and stockrooms worldwide. I saw so many cool concepts, that I left feeling so inspired and as if I’d go broke the rest of this year trying to buy everything they’d eventually release. One of the designs that I saw had such an impact on me, that I couldn’t stop speaking to people about it. And it appears that I still am.

The ever-popular Nike Air Max 90 will undergo a unique redesign to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Taking visual cues from the highly sought-after Air Max 90 “Infrared,” the “Cork” model sees the upper and tongue constructed entirely of the versatile natural material. The shoe’s accents and sole unit are taken from the “Infrared” design with black and crimson detailing on the Swoosh, heel tab and air bubble. The Nike Air Max 90 “Cork” will be available at Urban Industry beginning the first week of April.

Architecture: House R by CHRIST.CHRIST. Architects










Situated in Karlsruhe, Germany, House R by CHRIST.CHRIST. Architects is a four-storey modern residence providing ample light thanks to a wall of triple glazed windows. Playing with different levels throughout, the ground floor houses the entrance as well as a double-height living room with kitchen and dining area, while the first floor includes a more private living area and two children’s rooms with dressing room and bathroom. 

A roof terrace is accessible through the attic floor, which acts as the parents room, however the entire floor is setup in a loft design rather than with segregated amenities. Finally the basement houses an indoor swimming pool, which sits one meter above the terrain allowing for a small band of windows bringing in natural light.

Kicks Flow: UBIQ x Saucony Shadow Master “Atlantic Tide”





Righteous..

I was on Twitter a couple weeks ago (@AntlifeToday) saying outlandish things about how I was making Saucony cool again. Now we all know Saucony definitely doesn’t need my help with being cool, but I wanted to express my appreciation for the brand that I’ve always relied on for super fresh, but basic kicks. I felt that people don’t show them enough love, and I wanted to shed some light on a company that I just feel does some of the dopest under-the-radar work out here in the sneaker-world. 

Philadelphia’s UBIQ and Saucony have linked for a new spring-proper take on the brand’s Shadow Master model, here dubbed “Atlantic Tide.” Sure to be a hit during the warm weather months, the collaboration notes dual shades of blue utilized on the silhouette as well as a nice orange hue. White laces accompany the premium pair, matching the lining and the midsole accordingly.

The UBIQ x Saucony Shadow Master “Atlantic Tide” will be releasing tomorrow through UBIQ.
