The Inflatable revenge
If you think inflated plastic design is child's play, then think again. Blown up objects are back in art, design and architecture, and no-one's planning to deflate them anytime soon...

Tweet a London cab
Our personal mark of civilisation is the exact time if takes to get a taxi in a city at any given time. Although Manhattan is easy(ish), Milan possible with patience, and Paris perfectly fine except during fashion weeks, London may take the crown for the ability to now tweet a cab.

The swingers
Its obvious spookiness aside - this swing lamp by BCXSY would look wonderful (and freak out the neighbours) in a spacious living room. Perfect for creating a feature inside a room and a guaranteed conversation starter for any drinks party.

The Aston Martin Cygnet
As we hurtle towards a green society we're convinced James Bond will be adding organic olives to his Martini and fighting the evils of carbon gasses in one of these little cars.

Sail away from the office in style
The two keywords in the sailing world this summer are green and design. The latest super yachts are characterized by a strong focus on Eco-friendly issues whereas the more compact ones have a superb attention to design. For a shipshape look, head this way.

Serving the world
You may never have given it much thought but when you upload photos to a sharing site, open multiple email accounts and log onto Twitter, an out-of-sight data centre somewhere is storing all this information. We investigate the hidden phenomenon called "the cloud".

Over the next few months, Luxury London will be bringing you a mini-series and presenting a personal London guide that can be referenced any time you visit this wondrous city. I implore you to join me as I dig digger in to my Luxury London.
Have you ever thought about Palermo as the ideal city for lovers? St. Valentine’s day is coming and I’d like to suggest to you the top 5 romantic places in my city: each location has a little story behind it all relating to love... let’s discover them!
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and today I have a special treat for you. I have asked 7 of my illustrator friends a few questions related to this special occasion and, to make this article special, 2 of them have each prepared an original Dolce & Gabbana art work as a Valentine’s gift to the Swide readers.
Andrea Preti invites us to one of his Dolce&Gabbana shoots and gives us a sneak peek into his pre-shoot routine and also shares some of his body secrets. But when you're in demand like Andrea is, a 5 minute chat is never easy...
I honestly fail to see sense in Valentine's day if you're a day over 13-years-old. Single people use it as an excuse to complain about being single (all men are jerks and all girls are crazy and whatnot), and couples ignore it or use it as an excuse to invite single friends over for dinner and boast about their love.
New York Fashion Week is on from February 9th: here are 5 Swide tips on how to take a break between one fashion show and the next.
When the Swide team was backstage at the Men’s Dolce&Gabbana FW13 fashion show, we couldn’t help but eavesdrop on what the male models were talking about; the questions that girls ask them again and again and again.
We’re living in a golden age of sport and especially for tennis.

The scary thing is of the three, it’s Djokovic who still has to write the greatest chapter in his tennis story. Here are 5 reasons why Novak is the greatest of all time:
