When we wear camo we feel strong and rebel like Rambo.
We love those orgies of form and color that make us camouflage, but exactly like Rambo we hate the horrors of war. This is the reason why when we designed our camo pattern, we included the stylized form of an origami dove, a symbol of peace and fraternity.
Camouflaged, but swollen with peace and love.

Fontable is a project by designers Alessandro Canepa and Andrea Paulicelli: a new concept of modular elements that form tables using graphic signs; alphanumeric furniture as they call it.
Today they present their first special edition of fontable × bastard.
Tables are made from steel sheets with lacquered paint for indoor and outdoor use, with adjustable legs in painted iron that allow the overlapping and combination of table surfaces.
The Skulltable, that reproduces Ricky Fiorentini’s original skull design, and the Roundtable that reproduces the original round bastard logo have been created specifically for bastard.
Should you want to know more about the fontable world you can visit their website.

Lukas Goller is a visionary hippie with a thick german accent who has dedicated a big part of his life to snowboarding and the mountains. His brain is a volcano of ideas and his bohemian attitude makes him have a sensitive and focused point of view on the most different aspects of reality.
His sober madness, in contrast with the rationality and the experience of the long time designer/skater/snowboarder Andrea Vecchi has created the the new fw11-12 snowear collection signed by bastard: an orgy of essential lines, functional designs and revolutionary ideas.
Maybe due to his recent trip to California Luca Zamoc, our painter friend with a hefty talent, reveals a colorful world of his own snapping out of the misty, monochromatic reality that he was known for.
Unbelievable? Visit his new website updated with the latest works, among which the bastard store murales that later became a t-shirt.
Want to see his work with your own eyes? You just lucked out, as his exhibition is grand opening on Friday, April 29th (7pm through midnight) at the Dispenser in Viale Faenza, 12 Milano.
During the show he will be performing some live painting together with Mosone, Sea and 2501.
Many collaborators and friends have gathered again for the now classic photo shooting with photo master Giuliano Berarducci, who, as a ship captain from other times, guided us through the stormy weathers of the semestral shooting that gave birth to the spring summer 2011 bastard catalog.
Thank you, thank you and more thank yous to Enrico “ERREDBARON” Predeval, Mattia Turco, Nicola Giordano, René Olivo, beautiful Giulia “fastidio” Boselli and young Easy, who posed for the first bastard kid collection.
Exceptionals models were Koji and Luca from Milano City Ink, Giorgio from UBM, Nico & Andrea alias Pink is Punk and the Warriors.
Enjoy the images.
Two out of my biggest three passions are naked women and skateboarding.
After a life spent attempting, frequently in vain, to have the two things coexist, thanks to Playboy Enterprise, I can finally look at the realization of the ideal scene: a skatepark, a wood bowl and four beautiful girls dressed up with nothing but shoes and socks as they ride their skateboards.
Thanks to granpa Huge Hefner who’s always made us dream and thanks to skateboarding which has always been fun.
How many things does Lukas Goller have to juggle for soothing his visionary madness?
Way too many, but never enough.
Snowboarding is not enough, drawing is not enough, and not even designing snowboard apparel seems to be enough now.
In order to compensate for his madness disguised as genius good ol’ Lukas had to dive into another project, the making of the Whileitlast, which is a temporary skatepark in the Innsbruck area, built out of recycled materials.
Take a look at whileitlasts and learn the lesson: with little you can do a lot.
