China was famous for the Silk Road. With a history dating back to the 17th ~18th century, hand-painted wallpaper, designed by European wallpaper designers by incorporating Chinese art elements from Chinese artists, is a good example of the combination of Chinese and western arts. Attracted by its unique artistic value and charm, a large number of royal family and aristocrats in Europe selected hand-painted wallpaper for the decoration of their palaces and castles. Hand-painted wallpaper is now commonly seen in various ancient European buildings.
Bouyard Art Painting Studio is a leading manufacturer & designer of hand-crafted silk wallpapers for the high-end interior design market. All of the products are made by hand craft, using authentic techniques based on 5000 years of Chinese art history. The unique style and lovely interpretations of nature found in our wallpapers are admired the world over by interior designers for their ability to transform an interior space into a true work of art. BAPS has successfully applied these principals to creating designs of classic Chinoisserie scenes depicting lovely trees, flowers and birds in garden settings, classic Chinese historical scenes depicting village life and mythical scenes, as well as a sophisticated collection which is reminiscent of 18th century French hand blocked wallpaper murals.
In France since 1797, Zuber is the last factury in the world to produce woodblock printed wallpapers and furnishing fabrics.
Zuber for its production uses the original woodblocks (more than 100,000) engraved from the XVII and XIX century and is classified as an "Historical Monument".
The Continuous performance of this printing technique warrants to present manufacturing the same quality of the original printing.

Whatever we feel like, whenever we feel like it: a hodgepodge of "Blank Generation" stuff, some serious, some tongue in cheek, most not quite right in the head.
1950's retro, including american homes, Speigel's fashions, signs, architecture, and music. Many know me as Swanky, creator and organizer of Hukilau and collector of Polynesian Pop. I am really more into Midcentury culture and Tiki is a part of that.

The pressure to be a virgin bride is not felt by women from traditional Muslim families alone. In New York City, the majority of clients who visit the Plastic Surgery Centre, which offers "plastic surgery and reconstructive gynecology," are Latin American women.
"It's a lie out of love," says Esmeralda Vanegas, owner of the three New York centres. "Unfortunately, the men in our culture make us do these things. They are machistas. They do whatever they want out on the streets and then they want a virgin at the altar."
Nostalgic and retro look back at the 60's and 70's. News of the times including Woodstock, Civil Rights, Vietnam and also some live music sites to keep you rockin. This site like the generation of Hippy or Hippie children it tells about, is constantly changing. Just when I think I have told it all something else comes to mind.
Online magazine featuring martini time, dollface and budget bombshell. Retro inspired store for women and men's clothing.
Dollfacepunk started as a way for a frustrated young writer to publish articles that weren't completely gutted by editors. The young writer didn't get discovered for her pointless random articles and turned the whole thing into a store loaded with rockin' tees, tanks and hoodies. The pointless articles can now be found in blog format.
To clear up all confusion on the "punk" part of Dollfacepunk. Originally it was to be Dollface, but that was taken. It needed a little more spice. Punk fit so perfectly on the end. If you look up the word punk it means "insignificant young person." That is all that's behind the name. Dollface + Punk = dollfaced insignificant young person.

General information and online plotting program. Biorhythms are a method of calculating human cycles based on mathematical functions.

Current trends in retro living, from hot rods to swing bands, classic movies, World War 2 reenactments, jazz clubs, vintage clothing shows, rock n roll music, tiki bars, retro design, and movie remakes. RetroRadar.com is an information clearinghouse for anyone enamored of mid-20th century pop culture, including hot rodders, lindy hoppers, classic film lovers, Art Deco aficionados, WWII re-enactors, vintage clothing collectors, and other retrophiles. Our goal is two-fold: To pay homage to the innovation and achievements of America’s golden era from the 1920s to the 1960s, and to keep alive the courtesy, class and timeless style of this period. We venerate movies that pull at the heartstrings, music that makes you want to dance, and clothing that flatters rather than flaunts. Our radar screen filters out the noise that surrounds us and allows visitors to zero in on the resources they’re seeking in the world of vintage Americana. If it’s hip, we’ve got the blip.
