12.28.17 DREAMHOST TOASTED MY BELOVED WEBSITE — I’M WORKING DAY AND NIGHT TO GET IT BACK TO IT’S SPLENDOR FOR MY GLOBAL READERSHIP.
TEMP BETA PORTFOLIO — 01
in short i will have to create a new mysql database and start nearly from scratch. unfortunately I have lost around 1500 posts and images etc. this is quite unbelievable even with backups. dreamhost crippled the database to no end. in closing please choose your hosts well. I would highly recommend MEDIATEMPLE — hands down the cream of the crop!

what you see now is simply a placeholder until I get the database up and running and determine the new direction of the bvs website. it will of course be trend-spotting, traveling, creating and bringing you the latest and greatest global design news. it will also include an extensive portfolio redesign with numerous additions and by popular demand … a store once again!

I am saddened by the horrendous incompetence resulting in years of lost research and writings but I am grateful for the kind words, emails etc from my visitors — you guys rock! thank you kindly!

feel free to browse around. just please do excuse the dust and some empty images … I have too many visitors to shut it down. I will push on and create the best bvs web presence yet! wish me luck! it looks like I might need it — cheers! michael_bvs
