COOLHUNT: ANDROGYN MODELAGENCY

Lately, people with androgyn looks are popping up everywhere. In case you didn't know: These people have got the looks of the other gender, or actually, both genders. An example is the well known model Andrej Pejic.

"Androgyn people are beautiful". With that thought Androgyn Models was set up. A model agency especially for androgyn people.

What they say about their models:

Is it a man or a woman? It's a human. A human with beautiful curves or that perfect jawline. We don't think in gender, but in beauty.

I think Androgyn Models is cool as I definitely agree with their message to the world. We shouldn't categorize everyone, not even in genders. Maybe in about 10 years, we'll live in an androgen society, where it doesn't matter whether you're man or woman.

You’re at the airport. You just checked in and passed the security. What’s next? WAITING. And we all know, we probably have to wait approximately 45 minutes, but it feels like years...La Guardia airport in New York knows that feeling and came with a solution: iPads.

Senseo, it’s probably the most common coffee system in Holland. the ‘pad’ system makes it all easy, but the taste...mwah, could be better. So Douwe Egberts and Philips (the innovators) created a new concept. The Senseo Sarista.

iPads are mostly used by the whole family. And with family I don't just mean parents, kids and grandparents...also cats. I'm not joking right now, I'm actually being serious.

While the photography industry is increasing and developing even better cameras with even more modern functions than we could ever think of, people would also like to go back to basics. Just look at Instagram, inspired by the Polaroid camera, or the upcoming lomography industry, with their populair analogue cameras like the Fisheye camera, the Diana F+, the La Sardina? People want the old fashioned look, but in a modern way. So this is what they came up with: A magnetic fisheye lens for the iPhone!

HUNT FOR THE COOLNESS

As I told you before, I'm studying International Lifestyle now. For me it's quite a big step, as I have to travel a little 2 hours for that (In Holland that's pretty far as it's such a small country!). Last week me and my fellow students were introduced to Coolhunting. "What, coolhunting?!" It's basically go out and photograph cool things, but there's way more behind it. The 'cool thing' you spot should make you think, and besides that it should have growing potential... it's actually way harder than you think.

So I'm studying in Tilburg, which is such a different city than Rotterdam (where I come from). What Really catches my eye are the buildings. They still have those older buildings, mixed with some modern buildings. I'm used to only modern buildings as there are no old buildings to see in Rotterdam. Because of that, both cities have a totally different vibe. Tilburg is warm and cozy, while Rotterdam is really busy and in a rush.
