This cafe in Monaco is every Pantone fan's dream

In Monaco, design-loving visitors are quenching their thirst and satisfying their cravings and hunger at a pop-up restaurant inspired by the iconic Pantone Matching System.

Located within the Grimaldi Forum, along the coast on Princess Grace Avenue, the Pantone Cafe serves up an extensive menu of salads, sandwiches, eclairs, ice cream, coffee, juices and more – all of which have been matched to a Pantone color code.

Customers are able to order things like Pink Ham and Butter 13-2804 sandwich or Pistachio Green 19-1625 eclair. But it's not just the menu that comes with its own Pantone hue: The napkins, tables, chairs cups and beverage dispensers all also have corresponding color codes. Check out some images of the Pantone Cafe below:

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

These grotesque porcelain sculptures might give you nightmares

Art doesn't just have to be colorful flowers, sunsets and unicorns – there is artistry in the grotesque as well. Jason Briggs , a Tennessee-based nightmare creator, makes surreal and fucked-up ceramic sculptures of the human body that exist on the boundary between horror and beauty.

Japanese artist En Iwamura creates adorable ceramic sculptures

Kyoto-born artist En Iwamura is showing his latest ceramic creations in a special show on August 31 at the Ross+Kramer Gallery in East Hampton, New York. En's sculpted objects, which he describes as three-dimensional clay doodling, exudes nothing but good vibes with their quirky, playful style. He consciously uses childhood influences such as manga and anime, and draws inspiration from both American and Japanese historical and pop-cultural references along with his own life experiences. Born in 1988, En completed both his BFA and MFA in craft from Kanazawa College of Art and Craft in 2011 and 2013, respectively. His works have been shown in New York City, Seattle, Kansas City, Durham, NC, Japan, Canada, China and more. Thanks for the tip, Rachel.
