“well ball out then!” said this young thug to his “boo” as we rode the bus… somehow that language seems incredibly appropriate for the bus. however, less appropriate when describing the owner of a Super-Yacht. BUT… i guess if you’re “ballin outta control” you can describe yourself however you want!
ProjectA01

from SwipeLife:
Vienna based architects ProjectA01 completed this luxury home located in the small town of Kloterneuburg, Austria. It’s a home that overlooks the valley and consists of several levels that are divided into functional living spaces. There’s the fireplace, lounge area, kitchen, and terrace, which are all somehow connected to the main living space. The swimming pool outside gives the illusion of connectivity to the home giving it a seamless appearance. Above the ground floor is a cantilevered structure, which houses the private rooms. The home also has a small gallery, library, guest quarters, and of course a master bedroom. There’s also a rooftop terrace that gives a great view of the valley.

Lamborbiker Concept
by L.A. on Mar.30, 2009, under transportation
from SwipeLife:
The Lamborbiker is a concept bike from designer Flavio Adriani, who was inspired by Marcello Gandini, chief designer of Bertone and freelance designer since 1980. Gandini was also designer of the Osmos wheel and the Lamborghini Countach. While some may not equate the Lamborbiker’s skeletal frame to the Lamborghini Countach, others may still appreciate the design direction of the bike in terms of its curved lines and sleek frame. The hubless wheels are also a great addition to the bike, as it gives it more of a futuristic feel.
