FourThousand is a weekly snapshot of Brisbane's subculture - a Brisbane guide to film, music, design, books, art, goods and links for people who realise that the best things in life are often hard to find. Below you will find the latest additions to our Brisbane guide.
The IKEA Restaurant
The IKEA Restaurant provides a unique dining experience which some gourmet diners may find a little intimidating on first impression, but the emphasis here is on simplicity and minimalism. The restaurant décor is a European influenced, industrial-post-modern affair in which functionality and efficiency reign over the more subtle comforts.
FRANKLY! It's a Pop Festival
Frankly! It's a Pop Festival. And frankly, it's one event on the Brisbane festival calendar you'll want to get to (plus, it's a good distance from Riverfire party-going wankers). Last year's Frankly! debut transformed your spring Saturday afternoon from mediocre into totally awesome slash-pop fueled madness.
Be York: Anna Z chats to Evie York of York Hair
Cutting my hair and indulging me with her opinion on all things hair and fashion, Evie York takes me on as the interviewer with a return serve like Serena Williams.
Anna Zammit: The salon has been open since late last year. So what's it like to be York?
Evie York: Natural, manic, fun. Returning to Brisbane after 5 years in Melbourne and having a blast working at Fur, a true local treasure, I noticed a huge change in the scene here.
New Kid shoes
Good shoes, like a good man are hard to find. Both need to be just the right fit and it helps when they can take you for a wild spin on the dance floor. Ladies, let me introduce you to New Kid: charming shoes handmade in Italy by one smashing Rachel Beagley.
I speak from experience when I say it was love at first sight with my New Kid ‘Mathcore' dreamboats.

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
