Long before TheCoolist was cool, we spent our days researching music gear and our nights in the studio. Every January, we headed to Anaheim for the National Association of Music Merchants, checking out the latest and greatest tools musicians use to make music. We still keep up on those trends, but they cater to such a small part of you, our readership, that we generally keep quiet. But this… this is worth sharing....

Where the Gulf of St. Lawrence meets the Atlantic, the island of Fogo is a rare gem of global geography. Rock meets water, frost meets grass and the surrounding mists provide little evidence of a barrier between sky and sea. The architects at Bent Rene´Synnevåg laid claim to a section of the island in this structure, one of the most progressive works of architecture in modern Newfoundland. This sharp, angular abode rises above craggy rock and angry surf, a duo that meet to form one of Canada’s most barren-yet-beautiful landscapes....

The Google Project Wing drones look like a hybrid airplane/helicopter. Although it takes off and lands vertically, the drone flies like a jet, rocketing across the sky until it reaches its delivery address – at which point it slowly descends, releasing a package from its interior. At this point, anyone watching might assume the drone’s suffered a glitch – at least for a moment. The package comes tumbling recklessly out of the belly of the drone, speeding towards the ground at a breakneck pace....

Believe it or not, beards can also have bad hair days. But there’s a secret for turning shaggy back to smooth: beard grooming oil.

The Sprite Drone uses a cylinder shape and a pair of horizontally-aligned propellers to take to the skies. Think of it like a dandelion seed — it sports a propeller at the top, a payload at the bottom, floating effortlessly on the wind. Being “effortless” was another virtue that the team built into the Sprite Drone. It can fly fully automated, either following a predetermined flight plan or shadowing its user as they move about....

The Napa Valley House is built directly into a rocky ridge that slopes downward toward a valley. The rocks were reclaimed as a part of the design, a visual element that is repeated in various aspects of the home’s construction. Not a single stone was taken off site, as they would eventually be built into the walls or crushed for stone pathways between buildings. The Napa Valley House is actually a collection of four buildings on a single plot....

The home is decidedly contemporary, with symmetrical pitched-box sections mirroring eachother with large windows at either end. The interior is lined with bookshelves which reach high into the tall span of the open space. Continuity is an important part of Nobis’ design, where living spaces and work spaces roam open and free while private sections are tucked away out-of-sight. It’s a masterful work, a stunning example of modern architecture and the full depth of the creativity of the home’s architect and occupant, Susanne Nobis....

The Second Avenue Subway will run along Manhattan’s east side. It will feature 16 stations across 8.5 miles of track, stretching from Hanover Square to 125th street. It stands as low as 98-feet below street level, a carefully-placed line that avoids intersection with the mass of tunnels beneath New York. The 16 stations of the new line have begun to take shape during this process. The new Second Avenue Subway photos show wider, more cavernous stations that look more like those of the Washington Metro than the typical lines of the MTA....

Artist Piotr Woronkowcz has taken his vision to the world of urban sport with a new series of laser-etched wooden skateboard decks. These boards feature elaborate, detailed etchings of natural scenes, architecture or Jesus Christ himself. While we certainly admire Piotr’s craft, we couldn’t imagine grinding any of these on the hard concrete. These will go on our walls, not our local empty swimming pools. Either way, we admire your work, Piotr....
