WotW #33 – For Sale: Gin Mojitos, never warm

June24_1280x800

Picture yourself on a boat on a river,
with juniper trees, and sodapop skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
“This drink is incredibly dry!”

Velocity’s Summer Drink Series soldiers on with, “For Sale: Gin Mojitos, never warm.” by Creative Director, Karla Burr. Wallpaper of the Week for June 24. It’s reminiscent of the time Earnest Hemingway toured the Caribbean with the Beatles — which we’re fairly certain should have happened, but might not have.

Happy patio-ing!  -JB

WotW #30 – Ce n’est pas un Papier Peint

Switch

Wallpaper of the Week for June 3, Ce n’est pas un Papier Peint, by Velocity President Chris Clarke, falls into the category of Readymade or Found Art, in the manner of French Dadaist/Surrealist Marcel Duchamp. A hotel light switch from Salzburg is tilted 90-degrees and “branded” with the Velocity wordmark. The title is a tongue-in-cheek reference to René Magritte’s 1928 masterpiece, “The Treachery of Images.”

Have a surreal weekend.  -JB

WotW #29: SoCal Escapade

1280x8001

Velocity’s Wallpaper of the Week, SoCal Escapade, is a modern re-imagining of a 70s floral pattern by graphic designer Andrea Giasson. Imagine a Volkswagen van cruising the Pacific Highway, firework-blossoms of red, blue, and green clovers strewn across the pastel pink surfboards on the roof, a nectarine sun above, a blue paisley sea below.  Groovy.
