twisted farmhouse by tom givone. self-taught designer tom givone extended a white house with a warped metal-clad addition that starkly contrasts with the traditional architecture. originally built in the 1850s, the twisted farmhouse's two-storey extension is wrapped in a silvery exterior, designed around five curving columns that create its shape.

a team of five designers has created a new brand identity for russia's tourist board, which references the graphic style of suprematist artworks. suprematism, the avant-garde art movement developed by russian artist kasimir malevich, formed the starting point for the design. it led the designers to develop a logo made of up basic geometric shapes, which loosely form a map of russia. each of the 10 shapes represents a different place and territory, and they are presented in block colours of red, green, purple and orange. it includes crimea, presented as a small square on the far left of the image
