While some photographers focus on photographing interesting buildings when photographing cities, Portuguese photographer André Vicente Gonçalves focused on just one detail - the windows. He thus collected the photographs of windows in the photographic series Windows of the World and thus focused on the similarities between the windows of cities, on their shape and colors.
Are you interested in how people around the world pronounce famous brands such as Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Disney and Google? Then you have come to the right address. And if you think that such an established and ubiquitous name as Coca-Cola sounds the same everywhere, you are honestly wrong.
They say there are no shortcuts to success, so there are keyboard shortcuts that will save you valuable time.

How does a cosmetics company test the resistance of waterproof mascara? To make us cry, of course. And that's exactly what the L'Oréal brand did in its latest campaign "The Waterproof Experience", inviting 100 women to watch the emotional film Titanic.
Coca-Cola, an icon of pop culture, celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, so the brand, which has become a design muse, took a breather again and, together with Trussardi, prepared a limited series of cans and bottles that reflect the prestige of the aforementioned Italian fashion brand.

The packaging will debut at Expo Milano 2015, which starts on June 29, 2015, and is expected to hit the shelves soon after.
The island of Obonjan near the Croatian Šibenik will become a new hedonistic oasis, as it was bought by the British company Sound Channel, which, among other things, organizes and promotes the music festival Unknown.
The story of the fallen cycling champion Lance Armstrong also got the Hollywood treatment. In the film The Program, Ben Foster (The Sole Survivor) took on the role of a disgraced superstar who literally swept away his cycling rivals at the famous Tour de France cycling race.

This summer, girls will apparently not only throw away excess pieces of clothing, but also razors, as Instagram has gone crazy with the hairy armpit trend, which was started some time ago by celebrities such as Miley Cyrus, Lena Dunham, Madonna, Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore and Juliette Lewis. Otherwise, women's shaving is a fairly modern "invention" that was shaped by Gillette and became the norm after 1915. Now girls are once again taking power over their bodies and want to redefine beauty standards.
Old things that seem very useless and that you would normally want to throw away can be given a new, unique meaning with a touch of creativity. Australian artist Jarryn Dower, who breathes new life into old material, has proven this.
After Washington and the Chinese city of Chongqing, the Belgian city of Antwerp has also received a special traffic regulation - a lane for pedestrians who use mobile phones or send text messages while walking. Reason? More and more people are texting or diverting their attention to their phone while walking, as a result of which they do not follow what is happening around them little or not at all. This leads to many accidents, and collisions result in cracked screens and scratched or even destroyed phone cases. A special belt is supposed to improve safety.
