Buccella Wines
The art of packaging design (design/The-Power-of-The-Box---Powerful-Packaging-Design/) continues to inspire us. The latest interesting example to land on our desks is this classic take on packaging label design by Californian boutique winery, Buccella. (http://www.buccellawines.com/)Taking the age-old wax seal as its inspiration, the bottle's simple label makes a bold statement about the brand - that it is formidable, timeless and not easily forgotten. And according to reviews by major wine critics - so is the product. Earlier this year, The San Francisco Chronicle named Buccella a "cult" brand and one of the top 10 new wineries to watch. Great packaging design and a great wine to match...a coupling made in hedonist's heaven. Pass the glasses please. - Lisa Evans.

A Smaller World
If the first and second generations of social networking portals were about opening up the world, the third generation is about closing it again. Invitation only sites are popping up everywhere, creating exclusive, gated virtual communities that shut out the “masses.” bluechipexpert.com (https://www.bluechipexpert.com/login) and doostang.com (http://doostang.com/), where aspiring members must submit their resumes to be considered for acceptance. Other sites are blatantly and proudly parochial, such as aprivateclub.com, (http://www.aprivateclub.com/) which is only for New Yorkers in-the-know. If you were lucky enough to score an invitation to the Cannes Film Festival, you would also have gained access to the festival’s ‘private’ online portal, cannes2008.ning.com (http://cannes2008.ning.com/), created for attendees only. In Asia, well heeled society-types and business movers and shakers can network at dianefay.com (http://site.dianefay.com/index.php), a members only online club where one has to be invited to gain entry. In Europe decayenne.com (http://www.decayenne.com/) offers a similar exclusive club concept for invited members only. Wall Street types can commiserate the global financial meltdown with eachother in the privacy of cyberspace at bankersavenue.com, (http://www.bankersavenue.com/Index.aspx) a members-only portal for bankers who must be invited to join. Global expats can catch up on local knowledge and network at internations.org (http://www.internations.org/). The members-only site is for diplomats, members of IGOs and NGOs, foreign correspondents and other expatriates employed by multinational companies and their family members. If you don't bat for the "straight" team you can connect with other successful 'power' gays and lesbians at cosmocircle.net (http://www.cosmocircle.cc/) .If bizarre beliefs are more your thing then you can try getting into the spacecollective.org (http://spacecollective.org/) invite-only community, where "forward thinking terrestrials exchange ideas and information about the state of the species, their planet and the universe." Sounds like a blast. Where do we sign up? American Express should jump into the fray here and create a network for people who use their “black” card. Are businesses missing out by not creating exclusive environments for their high end customers?- Laura DemasiDo you know of any other “private” networking portals like these? send us a tip (http://www.thecoolhunter.com.au/component/option,com_contact/Itemid,14/task,view/contact_id,1/) pics via cobrasnake (http://www.thecobrasnake.com/)

RESTROOM DESIGNS - The Truth Is In The Loo
Bathroom, washroom, toilet, powder room, ladies’/men’s room, whatever we call it, it is the one place in any public or semi-public place — including restaurants, hotels, concert halls, clubs or bars — that really tells what the entire establishment is all about.Sometimes it may be possible to fake customer care, cool or luxury at the front end, but the truth is always revealed in the loo. If the bathrooms are ordinary, filthy or in poor repair — or all three — you can be sure that the whole concept is just surface glare, without substance and without true respect of the guests.Just as the owners’ attitudes are reflected in the staff they or their managers hire, their true values and beliefs are revealed in the places that get overlooked in poorly executed concepts: parking garages, (design/Is-That-Really-A-Car-Park-/) coat checks, kitchens, and most visibly and most commonly, bathrooms.It continues to baffle us why it is not obvious that the experience of going to a concert or dining at a restaurant includes the entire experience, not just parts of it. The divine food in a restaurant or the concert at a venue has a lot to cover up if the journey to your seat was poor agony. We have all had experiences like this: You were scared in the car park, got soaked in the line-up outside, had your wet coat crushed and your scarf dropped at the coat check, and when you proceeded to freshen up in the bathroom, it was completely uninspiring, poorly lit, ill-equipped and stinky. You are disappointed, but not surprised. It has happened too often.Which is why we are glad that bathrooms are starting to get some serious design attention. There is so much room to impress and surprise that it is amazing everyone isn’t doing something about it. It is one huge untapped opportunity. Because most of us have been so thoroughly underwhelmed hundreds of times, our expectations are quite low to start with.Owners and designers of such places have an unprecedented chance to surprise, please and pamper us, and to show that they really mean business all the way through.We are hoping that we will be seeing much more of great bathroom design and that there will be fewer disappointments in your future. Let us know when that happens. - Tuija Seipell
