2012 Growler E | 21st Century Jaguar E-type

The Jaguar E-Type´s 50th anniversary is in 2011, and many still admire the stunning lines of the car. Swedish design firm Visualtech, is one of those admirers and decided to create an E-Type for the 21st century. The tribute, called the Growler 2011 Concept, is what you see above. The concept is clearly inspired by the famous Jaguar, but we can also see certain lines of the Chevrolet Corvette. Visualtech decided to build a very short series run of the cars. You can expect to pay nearly $700,000 if they make a series run, and closer to $1.4 million if they only make a few but you have to admit that this beauty is Freshthanamug at any price!!!

First Look At Marvel Avengers Movie Posters

We got a chance to see the new Captain America movie this weekend (we'll give it an 8, the acting was decent and the cinematography was excellent but the story? Eh…). Then after waiting for the credits to end which seemed about as long as the movie itself, they showed the trailer for the upcoming Marvel Avengers movie. It was most definitely well worth the wait and with stars like Scarlet Johansson, Samuel Jackson, Robert Downy Jr. and the big dude that played Thor… (Did we mention Scarlet Johansson?) It should be THE Freshthanamug film of the year!!! But until then enjoy the posters…

A Look Into Nike CEO Mark Parker's Office Pt. 1

Dag!!! I thought my office and collection of toys and everything random was Freshthanamug, but I had to think again after checking Mr. Parker's office out. It's going to be difficult, but try to control your envy. The Nike CEO is an avid art collector and has been with the Swoosh for 30 years, which has led to this extensive collection of sneakers and Nike-inspired pieces. If this isn’t motivation to make those Freshthanamug dollars, then what is??? Oh, and this is only part 1, stay tuned for more to come from a real boss…

Freshthanamug Loft Of The Week

For our L.O.T.W. named the SmallBigAP in Portugal, the client wanted to live in the Porto area, near to his office and the city economic center, but couldn't find a place considered suitable for its taste and lifestyle. An aquaintance informed him of a vacant apartment in this building: a 3 bedroom apartment, plus one small room, 3 bathrooms, small kitchen, living area. The private and public areas are mixed, the internal space, even if with good area, is very compartmented, seeming quite small. The only rule: the living area must be completely open, capable of being partially enclosed if some privacy is needed and has to face west, the river view. Metroquadrado Arquitectura took on the assignment and (we my be a bit bias as with a have a great love for all things black and white) the end result is a Freshthanamug interior more than deserving of L.O.T.W. status!!!

BMW i8 Concept

With its publicity machine on full throttle, including a cameo role in the upcoming spy thriller Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol, was there even a need for BMW to announced the creation of the BMW i8 plug-in hybrid last week? Like its i3 cousin, the i8 employed the LifeDrive architecture, compartmentalized design which incorporated lightweight composite of aluminum and carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) as base. With this structural upgrade, BMW promised the i8 to dash from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.6 seconds with only a 1.5-liter 3-cylinder engine and a set of electric motor at the front. No words on the official cost of the vehicle except that it will be in “6-figure price range”, BMW’s ambitious BMW i sub-brand will first launch the i3 in 2013 with the i8 to follow in 2014. Speed Racer never had it as Freshthanamug than this!!!

Zombie Boy for Thierry Mugler

Rick Genest, the Canadian born ''Zombie boy'' as he is most commonly known, is the new face of MUGLER's premier men's collection and the Muse of creative director Nicola Formichetti. ''Zombie boy'' is covered head to foot in anatomical tattoos featuring bones and muscle structures. In the black and white images, he looks like a Zombie Prince in a tuxedo and in leather pants. Shocking and bizarre these images are meant to revolutionize fashion photography. Enjoy the Freshthanamug black and white photography and please appreciate Rick's individuality… 'Cause lets face it, there isn't a whole lot of it going on these days!!!

Freshthanamug Loft Of The Week

Our L.O.T.W. is designed and owned by well-known designer Steven Volpe, the loft situated on 355 Bryant St, San Francisco, California (that's right, we know where you live… So let us in if you hear us knocking), displays surprising 18′ ceilings that draw natural light in and allow the inhabitants to feel like they are living in a grand open space. Eight redwood timber columns dominate the interiors and continue up to the ceiling to create an imposing atmosphere. The beautiful combination of exposed brick and conservatory windows give the place a feeling of home without denying the owner his/her freedom. Glass doors leading out to a private courtyard connect the inside to the outside, while the upstairs bedroom with full bath offers the owner a relaxing private space. Custom built-ins and an exceptional selection of furniture create a modern living space. While we love every Freshtanamug loft that we've inhabited over our years here in S.F. we have to admit this might be the best we've seen in awhile!!!
