About Parfois
If it was up to us, all the best design in the world would be posted within the Parfois Portfolio. But it's not up to us. Stumbling the web we often bump into things worth sharing. The world wide web is so full off great things that will never end up in our portfolio, but which we want the world to see. For this we created our blog. At this moment there are 4 of us blogging on a regular basis. Work, studies and social life makes that there are weeks with a lot of posts, and weeks without. But we'll do our best in bringing you the nicest shit on a acceptable basis.

Today I stumbled on the website of Cole Rise, a photographer. The about page on his website is a bit thin. So the only thing I can tell you about Cole is, he can’t change the world and spends most of his time laying in the grass. Go check out his other pictures here! It is definitely worth a click.

I’m working on a huge blog post about The Wonderingboys, two dutch artists traveling the world, doing what they do best: invent crazy projects, make beautiful designs and live there dream. The whole story will be online at the end of the week, but I couldn’t wait presenting there latest project, The Traveling Moustache. It all started with the idea to blog a picture every day for 365 days, for one of these pictures they bought 2 fake mustaches, the comments on this picture where so nice they decided to buy some more mustaches and send them to other people around the world, if you receive a mustache, you take a picture and place it on The Traveling Moustache Flickr page. It is a crazy idea and i’m curious how the page will look in a couple of moths when the mustaches has traveled around the globe.
You can find the blog post about the Traveling Moustache right here (only in dutch).

The Bitter*Girls is the work of Japanese photographer Jyune. His works are mainly landscape photography and experimental photography using tilt/shift lenses and lens filters. Jyune’s photography misleads our perceptions, using a rather particular process which gives the impression that the subjects are models, when in fact they are real. >> Read more
