We are Moving

If you are wondering why the number of posts have reduced somewhat lately it is because I am making some major changes to Ultra Swank and instead of bringing you new posts I am focusing my time on developing the new version and getting it ready for take off. I am hoping to have the new version of Ultra Swank up and running within a week or two and to keep you all entertained until then why don’t you listen to some swank music? Bare with me, all good things are worth waiting for. See you on the other side of the moon! (Via)

Feedback

Ultra Swank has been around for almost three years now and I thought it would be a good idea to check in with my readers. So if you are a frequent reader of this blog, I would very much like to know what you think of it.

What do you think of the content? Is there too much of something – or too little? What do you think can be improved? How do you like the comment function? Does it work correctly? Do you like that it opens in a dynamic window? And is there something on this blog that isn’t working correctly for you (anything that looks or behaves in a awkward way)? I am trying to make some improvements on the blog and I really value your feedback. Please take a minute or two and post some feedback in the comments so we can make this blog even better, thank you!

Ultra Swank – Your one stop blog for retro living, style and design

Ultra Swank takes you back in time into the kitsch, chic and swank living of the 50s, 60s and the 70s. We mainly focus on the design, architecture and the lifestyle of the happy-go-lucky and space-age-living mentality of that era – but also on the music and movies that takes you back to happier times. Ultra Swank is run by Chris, a Swede born in the wrong decade that currently resides in Barcelona. Read more

Looking back

Happy new year! First post of 2008, let’s make it a rather good one. Hope that you have truly enjoyed reading my posts about lifestyle and design adventures from another time. Not forgetting my custom compilations especially made for and released through this blog. I have received such good response and praises for all of them and that is what keeps me going. Just knowing that I can make someone happy by sharing what I like best. I know that a lot of you are anxious for me to release more compilations and rest assure, I still got some tricks up my sleeve. I am working on two new compilations, that will be digging deeper into areas not fully explored here yet. Something different, something swizzle cool. Something for everyone in the family.

If you got photos or any other material of things from the past that you will think fit the direction this blog is going in, please feel free to get in touch with me. I will mostly likely create a accessible form soon so that you can contact me easily, without me having to deal with all the spam I would get otherwise. More on that in a later post.

Thank you all for your continued support and amazing comments!
