N-Collage™ is the first-ever odorless and virtually colorless collagen ingredient designed for cosmetic applications. It delivers unmatched sensory appeal and in-formula stability compared to traditional bovine, porcine or marine collagen sources.

The protein solution is made using a sustainable fermentation process that converts renewable plant-based inputs into a pure, high-performance protein product.

In a recent clinical study, N-Collage™ delivered 5X greater moisturization versus marine Collagen, and increased skin firmness and elasticity by 26% in just two weeks.

Photographed from a plane during NASA’s IceBridge expedition of Antarctica, Italian artist Paolo Pellegrin presents expanses of awe-inspiring natural beauty. Tracing abstract forms of snow textures and ice cracks, the large-scale detailed works are evocative of Alfred Stieglitz’s Equivalent”. Underscored by a more ominous note, the striking project is a haunting reflection of the impact of mankind’s industrial activities.  Via Wallpaper*

Greenhouses in Almeria, Spain, cover approximately 20,000 hectares of land (more than 75 square miles). The use of plastic covering (known as “plasticulture”) is designed to increase produce yield, increase produce size, and shorten growth time. For a sense of scale, this Overview shows roughly six square miles.

This image is on display right now at our exhibition at theprintspace in Shoreditch, London. We’re also selling prints of it, and – thanks to theprintspace – we are able to offer FREE shipping throughout Europe during the exhibition, which ends November 26th!

The Erg Iguidi is a large erg in the Tindouf Province of southwestern Algeria. An erg — also called a dune sea — is a broad, flat area of desert covered with windswept sand and little or no vegetation. Part of the greater Sahara Desert, the Erg Iguidi’s narrow, linear dunes stretch for roughly 250 miles (400 km) into northern Mali and Mauritania.
