Childhood in four stamps. Tiny scenes of play, imagination and the Space Age. Adorable! Children's Day stamps Bulgaria, 1966.

I really miss clear tech from the 2000's, as a teen during the y2k era, transparent electronic devices were my dream!

I could spend hours looking at Olivetti posters and their beautiful design. I don't think I've ever seen one I didn't love. Selected Olivetti Vintage ads.

You’d think this was science fiction. It’s an actual restroom in Zhejiang, China.

Playtime is a masterpiece! Severance production designer Jeremy Hindle has cited Jacques Tati's 1967 film as a key reference for the visual world of Lumon. The symmetry, the simplicity, the absurdity. The parallels here are loose but the atmosphere and satire remain similar.
