Bungalow 8









On more things I’ve been meaning to post for a while. Here’s a brilliantly fun idea… how do you take a normally boring average looking bottled Magners Pear Cider and elevate (or catapult) its status instantly? Give the awesome Bungalow 8 in London an exclusive stunning bottle that is only available there, and only 500 bottles are produced. The new design was created for Magners by their brand entertainment agency, Cake. They were even kind enough to send one over so i could take a look at it in person - and its lovely! Its a sleek black bottle with 5 gloss silver sticker stripes wrapping the bottle and the Bungalow 8 ‘8’ etched in the silver pear. Honestly, it’s hard to look at the original bottle the same way after seeing and holding this. Actually, it’s hard to look at any cider or beer the same. Why don’t they all look this stunningly designed?
 
Here’s a great quote from Amy Sacco, founder of Bungalow 8: “Magners Pear Cider bottled exclusively for Bungalow 8 London is probably the coolest bottle to be seen with this season! As we are not allowed to let bottles leave the premises it has caused quite a stir……I have noticed the girls are all carrying larger handbags and trying to make off with the empties! I don’t blame them! The all black glass bottle with silver “disco ball-esque stripes” and t
he embossed 8 hidden inside the pear is so sexy that I have had cases sent to my flat in NYC and am working on an installation with a few of my local favorite artisans"

Amy.. I need a case of this as well!

come on over to my house, my house....






As owner of Syndicate Hospitality, which counts Opera, Crimson and Mood as part of its prestigious portfolio, David Judaken knows a thing or two about creating first-class nightclubs - especially when teamed up with design guru Dodd Mitchell.

At 10,000-square-feet MyHouse is the best of the bunch, with a 60s-style bachelor pad feel that makes revellers feel right at home the minute they walk through the imposing entrance on Hollywood Boulevard (where else?). Vintage touches include gorgeous crocodile-skin bars, thick shagpile rugs, dazzling crystal chandeliers and impressive fire-breathing sculptures. All the rooms you'd expect in a normal house are present and oh-so-correct, including a luxurious lounge and kitsch kitchen. We can't imagine what the bedroom (above) is used for though, unless the likes of Lindsay Lohan gets her claws into some poor young aspiring actor with the promise of blow and blow-jobs.

The furniture is stunning, too, and is supplied by luxury LA firm Mogul. Combining the intimate feel of a house party with the decadent feel of a superclub, it's no wonder MyHouse has Hollywood's hottest young things queuing up around the block every night of the week.
