Out of the Box Magazine

The Sardine collection by Bordallo Pinheiro results from a collaboration between the Earthenware Factory of Caldas da Rainha, founded in 1884 by Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro, and EGEAC/Municipality of Lisbon, which has been organising, since 2011, the Sardines competition within the Lisbon Festivities. This initiative, open to all participants, has resulted in a remarkable number of creative proposals, from which we chose those that make up this collection. Having started with 22 different models (21 originating from the competition, plus the original Bordallo sardine), its composition will be reviewed annually, with the introduction of new creative proposals and the discontinuation of others. Each year is therefore an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire some of these models. Additionally, special limited editions will be created in collaboration with international designers.

Based on  Ronaldo ’s identity, his image and behavior, meeting the demands of a consumer that identifies himself with the excellence, performance and sophistication, the  brand  aims to be in a premium and  luxury fashion  segment, for someone with a relaxed and casual life style. The use of the common  memory  associated with his image will be the key to make the brand unique and exclusive, with easily recognizable styles. That’s why we'll keep the focus on the social side of Ronaldo’s life. High- Tech  and Easy-Life. All the CR7 shoes are carefully designed and  tested , using the finest available leather, and a perfect standard regarding fit and workmanship.

Portugal ’s  street art  has really evolved over the years with an impressive number of artists, and you can see some of their work on websites like Stick2Target ,  Mr. Dheo , and  Underdogs . One of the house hold names is Odeith , a  graffiti  rider since 1996, spray painting cabinets and walls in railway routes. An innovator for using  perspective illusion  to compose pop-out letters on different  surfaces , which  led  to other artists doing the same. Despite the illegal nature of graffiti in the modern era, much has changed for some  writers in the last decade.  Odeith  for example, has created art for companies like Shell, Coca-Cola, Samsung,  Estradas de Portugal  and  S. L. Benfica .

Agueda is beautiful. Another year of Agitágueda, the music and  art festival  in this center Portugal city. During the month of July, the streets will be decorated with thousands of Umbrellas, a true Umbrella Sky.
