We got these pictures from one of our readers via e-mail. Her name is Antti Paasivaara and she is a 21 year old web architect from Finland. The apartment below has a surface of 41 square meters, yet every single corner is well taken care of in matters of functionality. This is why we consider this flat to be an inspiring example on how to deal with small places. Our reader says she has been working on decorating the place for a year. Slowly putting the pieces of the puzzle together paid off and her personality is probably well emphasized by this small, but stylish apartment. The flat seems to have it all: a bed and an extra sofa for visitors, a cool working space, interesting shelving units for books, an all equipped kitchen and bathroom. So who says a 41sqm apartment is not enough?

Festival attendees can download the Chevy iReveal application on the iPhone which will allow them to participate in a scavenger hunt-like game that blends augmented reality with location-based functions. A map in the application shows the location of Chevy vehicle promotions around Austin where users can "unlock" the ability to view 360-degree 3D models of the cars in an AR view using the phone's camera.
According to the App Store, AR iPhone application developer acrossair has produced the application for Chevrolet. The interesting thing about this experience is the way it blends the dichotomous features of mobile and webcam-based AR. The 3D model manipulation we are used to seeing on the desktop is wisely mixed with the location-based map info seen in most mobile AR applications. By taking the best of both worlds, acrossair and Chevrolet have opened the door to a new breed of mobile AR advertisements.
"Imagine using Quick Response Codes to download the price and options for a vehicle on a dealer lot right to your cell phone. Or, imagine using augmented reality to virtually preview different colors of the Camaro in your own driveway," Barger says. "We are just scratching the surface of what's possible with mobile technologies and social media applications."
Chevrolet is also teaming up with Gowalla to provide location-based advertisements to people checking in at SXSW. One promotion they are offering is a shuttle ride from the airport in one of their new cars to select users that check in at the airport, so don't forget to fire up Gowalla when you land in Austin. For more information about mobile and desktop AR advertising, be sure to check out our report on the subject coming soon!

I've always been a fan of Apple's design. As a web designer, I'm sure that many of you are. When Apple released the iPhone and iPod Touch, thousands of apps hit the app store. As a result, web designers started creating sites for Apple apps. These sites promote, give information about, and help sell these apps. In this showcase, you'll find 35 beautiful handpicked app websites.
