Sony is giving Australians a great opportunity to make use of bad photos they’ve taken during the holidays. The brand has launched a new advertising campaign dubbed ‘No More Bad Photos’ to promote its Cyber-shot HX20, which encourages people across the country to upload their bad stills for a chance to go on the holiday again and re-experience all the exiting moments worth capturing.

This month we are welcoming some new additions to the Pearlfisher studio gallery space in London: a beautiful old letterpress (courtesy of the brilliant Mr Kelvyn Smith http://www.letterpress-workshop.com/) and a revolutionary three-dimensional printer. From opposite ends of the same discipline, these two machines led us to think about a new movement in design that is uniting previously detached points of the same spectrum.
Consumers like when brands offer them more than they expect and amaze them with new product offerings, which could never be predicted. Following in the footsteps of Diet Coke with its nail polish and Virgin Atlantic with the lip gloss, Malibu Coconut Flavoured Rum has revealed its own make-up kit worth £20. The new set, which includes a mirror, coconut-flavoured lip gloss, eyelash curlers and eye shadow, is given to those who buy a Malibu drink for themselves and a friend at 4,000 participating UK outlets these months through the end of summer. For this promotion, the alcohol drinks brand teamed up with cosmetics brand, Models Own, which provided the make-up items.

Here in the UK last week, we hit the first double-dip recession since the 1970s. But there wasn’t wall-to-wall coverage or even that much front-page news. Do we have a collective sense of inevitability? Are we a nation resigned to economic depression? Or do we have a growing determination to take matters into our own hands and build our own futures? Now is the time for each and every one of us to reboot our own ‘home’ economy and build a new ‘homestyle’, a way of living that makes more of the spaces we find ourselves in. After all, home is where the heart is.
