interesting collection of untranslatable words in various languages, although strictly speaking they are translatable but do not have an exact equivalent word in other languages… but maybe i am being a bit pedantic :)

swastika laundry
utterly bizarre story i came across recently: a laundry business with an unusual name and logo, that used to be based in dublin ireland
they changed their name in 1939 adding the text ‘since 1912’ just to make clear that they didn’t have any untoward alliegances, but still strange to see this… the company exsisted under this moniker untill the late 60’s
7 linialen
interesting essay by designer richard niessen on the design scene in holland now and then… it is only in dutch (and also very particular to the local situation)
self promo
a self-promo idea from a photographer that takes narcissism to a whole new level…
it reminds me of a similar idea from local agency resoluut, which i find much nicer due to the fantasy element they introduced by making themselves into fictive superheroes…
