A whole new world

Globes have been enjoying a resurgence for the past few years, but strangely it's not until now that I've found myself really interested. And it's not just any globe- I'm especially attracted to more modern looking globes. I first noticed this really amazing yellow one in a recent issue of Grazia Casa. Such an unexpected color and I just love it! The credit said it was by Atmosphere Globes, and it looks like it's part of their "Full Circle" line- but their site doesn't seem to show their entire collection. I tried a little internet search, but only found other colorways, but not this yellow one. Sent them an email- hopefully I'll get a response. Then, in the recent Monocle, there's another globe, this time by Nendo, in Japan. Love the graphic black and white. More shots here.
