  In recent times, many of us have spent more time at home than ever before. Creating a home that instills a sense of calm will cocoon and protect us from the outside world, create a sense of wellbeing and make us feel truly nurtured. Calm will help you create a restful, restorative interior that draws you in and makes your shoulders drop the moment you walk through the door. Sally Denning first explores the essential foundations of a tranquil, comforting home: calming and harmonious colours, textiles, pattern, lighting and decorative elements. She goes on to explore a mix of accessible real-life homes, ranging from city homes to country houses, new builds, flats/apartments, beach houses and more. The spaces may be different, but they all share one thing: a timeless, soothing and restful atmosphere that is a pleasure to come home to.

  Pharus II - Landscapes and...

  Matilde Marín in Pharus II. Landscapes and Photographic Fictions again embarks on a visual journey that documents and recreates lighthouses of the world. This work illuminates with reddish tones the lighthouses that are the return home - in the reverse journey to Pharus. From the southern hemisphere to the north - now the artist goes from Iceland to the southernmost south of Argentina. In this displacement with documentary images and fictional landscapes Marín presents lighthouses that are not only physical guides at sea, but by their visuality now reveal spaces of fascination and are the occasion to imagine new narratives that revitalise these symbols of memory and history. Laura Malosetti Costa expresses that the lighthouses evoke concepts and narratives such as those of the voyage, shipwreck, tragedy, and are the result of both the artist's experiences and her literary readings. Adriana Musitano analyses the abyssal settings that partially duplicate the lighthouses in their reflections and observes that Marín astonishes with images that create a utopian space by creating photographic fictions that link the landscape of the Salinas Grandes of Argentina with faraway places. The lighthouses and constellations in this ebook illuminate our planet and the planisphere shows them in relation to the cardinal points, seas and continents. Marín narrates his return home and also his trip to Egypt, when he learns about the place where the first lighthouse was, Alexandria. The Lighthouses of affection are added, with photographs of her friends, remembering her.

  PULP FICTION 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Pulp Fiction is a 1994 crime film directed by Quentin Tarantino, known for its nonlinear storytelling and dark humor. The movie weaves together multiple interconnected stories revolving around Los Angeles criminals. It follows hitmen Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield, boxer Butch Coolidge, and gangster Marsellus Wallace, among others, as they navigate a world filled with violence, betrayal, and redemption. The film's sharp dialogue, unconventional structure, and exploration of fate, morality, and human nature set it apart. Blending elements of noir, black comedy, and pop culture references, Pulp Fiction became a landmark in independent cinema. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Jules tells Marcellus to send the "Cavalry" to help him and Vincent when they accidentally shoot Marvin. In "The Hateful Eight," Samuel L. Jackson later portrays a retired cavalry infantryman.” 
    
  “In each of the vignettes, an unexpected incident of death forces the characters to seek refuge somewhere and try to fix the situation. For instance, Butch accidentally kills his opponent in the ring and hides at a hotel from Marcellus, while Vincent kills Marvin and he and Jules go to Jimmy's house to resolve the issue. Mia overdoses on heroin, leading Vincent to take her to Lance's house for help.” 
    
  "Pulp Fiction" is listed in the Official Top 250 Narrative Feature Films on Letterboxd.”
