Our friends from Dodo Magazine gave us the most charming online advent countdown this year with their Very Dodo Christmas tree series. They invited 21 artists and creative peeps from Berlin to each decorate a Christmas tree and the results are super funny and cute. We have a tree with monsters, houses, candy, one giant ornament, a snowman tree, a Laura Palmer tree, a ghost tree and a pizza tree to name only a few. I also made a tree for this series with my childhood collection of over 80 smurfs and mushroom houses that was so much fun to do! After the jump you can see some of the trees. The whole collection with artist ortraits you will find on the Dodo Magazine fanpage. Merry Christmas!

After molecular ice creams, geometric bags and a hipster photo art app, it’s now time to bring some adventure to our column Berlin Goods. Today I want to put the spotlight on a new unique independent magazine based in Berlin, which is all about bringing your childhood memories back and releasing your youthful spirit: Dodo Magazine. But what is Dodo? Berlin-based Spanish art director and magazine founder Rubén Martin describes it as the ultimate fantasy and adventure magazine for anyone that has ever wanted a treehouse – and I must say that I couldn’t agree more. The magazine is not just another printed media to kill your time, but rather an authentic adventurous experience. When you start reading it, you literally feel as if you are under your sheet with a torch, or sitting around a campfire in the middle of nowhere; it’s like entering a new world, where everything has yet to be discovered. The first issue of Dodo Magazine is both a time machine and a horror tale, with two sides filled with interviews, comic strips, and stunning pictures from almost forty top illustrators, photographers and writers from all over the globe. If you, just like me, have always wanted to build your own treehouse or own a private haunted house, make sure you get your copy and learn all the precious tips on how to scare your friends before the spookiest night of the year arrives! Enjoy some impressions of the the issues of the magazine after the jump. Read on…
