Incredible colour footage of 1920s London shot by an early British pioneer of film named Claude Friese-Greene, who made a series of travelogues using the colour process his father William - a noted cinematographer - was experimenting with.

A project from bureauofcommongoods.com, Made by Hand is a short film series celebrating the people who make things by hand—sustainably, locally, and with a love for their craft.

The fifth film turns to bike maker Ezra Caldwell (Fast Boy Cycles), who was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. When the cancer threatens to shatter his love of bikes, Ezra survives by documenting his illness as thoroughly as his craft.

The stylish and effective WaterRower is handcraft in the US, from solid American black walnut. As with all natural timbers, there will always be a degree of variation in the colour of the woods, but the eco-friendly premium hardwood frame ensures longevity and quality of performance. As self-regulating apparatus, the harder you stroke, the more resistance is created, and the WaterRower exercises up to 84% of the body’s muscle mass. Designed to simulate both the physiological dynamics of rowing on water, the WaterRower’s classic design also enjoys an extremely smooth and gentle glide, when in motion. Available as part of The Conran Shop’s range of luxury sporting designs, the WaterRower is a perfect combination of high quality materials, innovative design and a handsome aesthetic.

Aesop open the doors to yet another new location, recently saying hello to Shibuya, Tokyo, their fifth store in Japan. The prolific Torafu Architects responsible for this one, as usual things are kept minimal and clean, glass playing a large part across the store, notably the façade and front door made up of brown, clear and corrugated glass panels. A charcoal timber floor leads into some beautiful sisal carpet, alongside a large mirrored wall, storage shelves, counter and work surfaces all in blackened steel. Is there a pink wall? Yes, there’s a pink wall, a little playfulness amongst the stark fittings and fixtures.
