Tuk Clothing is “inspired by the wonderful colours, tastes, smells and personalities of South Asia. We believe in garments that fit well, that have a strong emphasis on bespoke tailoring, and that personify our beliefs, inspirations and brand ethos.”

Epson’s R-D1x is the latest modern digital rangefinder to hit the market. Not much has changed from the R-D1 that (followed by the R-D1s) was introduced four years ago: that 6 megapixel APS-C CCD sensor, RAW and JPEG support, and Leica M and L glass compatibility remain. It also adds a bigger 2.5-inch LCD, support for the SDHC card format (up to 32GB), and improved EDiART image processing.

No price yet, but the camera will hit shelves April 9th.

The twin sisters Tineke and Marieke Willems, who form the Dutch design studio Tweelink, have designed the Bux chesterfield pouf for the new outdoor furniture company Dutch Summer.

Here’s what Tweelink had to say about the BUX:

We created the boxwood shape because it’s meant for outdoor use. But feel free to plant one indoors also.
