From literary jewellery by Jeremy May to Yen Jui-Lin’s cartoon toys and new posters by Durban-based artist Resoborg, these are the VISI team’s top picks of the week.
1. Dreamy Japanese Home
“This striking home in Osaka, designed by Japanese architecture firm Arbol Design, really caught my eye this week,” says Online Editor Lindi Brownell Meiring. “I don’t know what I love more – the decor or the facade of the house itself!”
