Following the successful release of its “I’m Back!” series a few months ago, high-end toymaker ENTERBAY has returned with yet another 1/6 scale figurine of the great Michael Jordan, this time dubbed #23 Away. Standing tall at almost 13 inches as it is based on MJ’s official height of 6’6’’, this limited edition model is from the toymaker’s Real Masterpiece collection – a range of accurately depicted, lifelike figurines that focuses on some of the most recognizable faces in the world. Taking us back a decade or three, this “museum-like representation of Jordan” features his iconic red Chicago Bulls uniform accompanied by three of his famous signature sneaker models: the Air II; Air Jordan X “Steel Grey”; and Air Jordan XI “Concord.” [See & Read More]

The collaborative cruiser is now available online for $170 USD as a complete or $100 USD for the deck alone.

The Winged House is a remarkably triangular private residence located on the tropical island of Singapore. Its architectural frame features two adjacent trapeziums on a triangulated plot of land. These embracing forms open towards lush greenery at the back of the site, at the same time carving out a cozy private garden in the middle. Inspired by traditional Malay housing, the folding trapeziums let in fresh air for relief from tropical heat while the extended eaves provide shelter and shade from seasonal downpours. [See More]
