NOAH LARMZ PARTY

NOAH LARMZ wasn’t and never is a disappointment. It was hot, sweaty, packed club but still awesome. The dj killed it all night and the collection of characters and personalities was endless. Ladies were dressed to impress and you couldn’t ask for a better atmosphere. Big ups to NOAH LARMZ. SPARCE APPROVES!

GOOD TIMES

Pretty decent wknd in Wilmington as Sparce chilled out and played a little pong and flip cup  in the garage. Always the center of attention Mario and Scott were out rocking the Gorilla and Wound up tee . We will be working on the online store soon due to the volume of request for tees so stay tuned for more information on that. I think I’m about to have a case of the mondays.

Ping Pong Door

Whether you fancy beer pong or ping pong, or both,  having a door that transforms into either is sick.  Be sure to thank to Tobias Franzel for taking it to the next level.  Sparce approves.

CLOTHES

I am a big fan of Dean and Dan or simply D2 Squared. Their clothing is sometimes too risque for my taste but their creativity is undeniable. Below are pieces from their spring 2010 collection which focuses on excursion. Their inspiration is drawn from their childhoods at summer camps.

DESIGN

You ever been painting or drawing and tried to press apple z to undo it? Mac syndrome, more commonly photoshop, illustrator reflex.  Well we are getting closer to those type of things being reality.  A Korean designer conceptualized the eyedropper we so often use in the two programs to work away from the computer an with physical objects. It will scan and object then duplicate the color into the pen. Sparce approves!
