Yimmy’s Yayo

Yimmy’s Yayo

September 7, 2009

Not only is Yimmy’s Yayo one of my favorite image blogs, it was the first site like this that I bookmarked.

Top 15 Modernist Gas Stations

Lamborghini Miura

August 17, 2009

Ever since Mike posted the article about the Maserati garage contest the other day, I’ve been spending a bit of time googling old sports cars.

Maserati: Design Driven

Maserati: Design Driven

August 13, 2009

As long as I’ve known Jim Bauer, he’s always fantasized about living in some sort of industrial Batcave type minimalist bachelor residence where you could park your car in your living room.

Q&A: MARK WEAVER

Q&A: MARK WEAVER

July 30, 2009
