I hope you're all having a good start to your mid November week. With the cold weather really setting in for the Northern hemisphere, board games may be a minority past time in a world of interactivity, but in the Southern hemisphere this board game is as popular as ever.
That is why I was taken aback by this video clip, which shows some unique interpretations of that century old game chess. It's a very popular game poolside in summer as you relax under a shady palm away from the summer heat whilst sipping on a Pimm's playing this game of strategy and tactics.
In this video clip a number of prolific artists have come up their own versions of the chess set, complete with table, chairs and chess pieces.
It's a lot of fun, quirky and retro. The exhibition took place in Milan and features seven artists. I just love Yayoi Kusama's sea urchin looking porcelein chess set, so different.
I'm keen to share with you another video clip from crane.tv which shows the SoHo Beach House in Miami. With a video clip you can see so much more than with individual images. There's heaps of inspiration in this fabulous hotel.
