Oren Lavie Video

My friend just sent me this link, it's a smooth and lovely song, but most of all a pretty interesting video. I ♥ the the way it's animated, you should definitely watch it. Just right for a weekend!

Jason Graham And His Imagination...

While we're waiting for the new version of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland directed by the crazies and most imaginative director - Tim Burton - here's something to make the waiting sweet and funny. A couple of illustrations by Jason Graham. Enjoy the weekend! Be creative!

BOV Wine

Package design is my favourite type of design. I could spend hours watching the latest designs, which is the reason I started writing for The Dieline, the best packaging website in my opinion. I mean, I browse through all the sites in search for best, smartest and most innovative designs anyway, why not share it with other package design freaks. Here's antoher example of clean and sophisticated package design, this time by BMD, a design studio from Australia. It was awarded a Distinction in the packaging category for Bremerton's Best of Vintage (BOV) at the recent Australian Graphic Design Association (AGDA) National Awards.

Byredo Parfums

I love the simplicity of the Byredo Parfums design...

Felt Chair By Charlotte Kingsnorth

Speaking of felt... This armchair, designed by Charlotte Kingsnorth, was made out of just one sheet of felt, cleverly folded and attached together. It must be comfy.
Found at Dezeen.

Felt Surfaces By Selina Rose

I always thought the only thing you can make out of felt are thick russian shoes. When I saw these intricate home accessories by Selina Rose I realised I had been mistaken...

Pocket Wall by Maja Ganszyniec

Maja Ganszyniec is a Polish designer living in London, one of the designers behind Love Kompott. Their work will be presented at the Young Creative Poland exhibition in London, taking place between 19th and 27th of September. As part of the London Design Festival the best young Polish designers will show their new work at the group exhibition in the Brompton Design District representing a broad spectrum of creativity: furniture design, industrial design, graphic design, fashion, architecture and innovative engineering.

The design above is called the Pocket Wall. Look at the house as if it were a package: the room is like a package and the wallpaper is like wrapping paper. The project turns the purely decorative layer of wallpaper into storage.

Coarse Toys And Sharks

My boyfriend is seriously afraid of sharks. That's the fact. Every time there's anything about sharks on tele, he walks out of the room. Seeing the ocean part of the Natural History Museum in NY turned out traumatic, because they had stuffed sharks on the wallls. Luckily the sharks population in Poland isn't that big (...as they'r not the biggest fans of the Baltic Sea). Anyways, I figured he wouldn't be a big fan of these guys by Coarse Toys... via Fubiz.

Ripple Chair by Ron Arad

It seems that all the interesting things I find lately happen to be ...chairs. I guess my living room will be nothing but a collection of random chairs (when I have enough money to start buying the ones I love, that is). Ron Arad currently presents his work at MoMA (you should definitely check out the mini site about the show here) and I regret it wasn't on when I was in New York this summer. Ripple chairs are part of the exhibition, my favourite part is the one version "dressed" by Issey Miyake!

This concave figure-eight seat (resembling a butterfly, mask, pretzel, or Zen tracing in the sand) is made of injection-molded thermoplastic, a malleable material ideally suited to highlighting Ripple’s soft waves in relief. Manufactured and distributed by Moroso, this chair is stackable and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. In 2006 Arad collaborated with fashion designer Issey Miyake to design an “outfit” for Ripple that could also be worn by its owner—a marriage of fashion and design. The project was part of a concept developed by Miyake and textile engineer Dai Fujiwara, called A Piece Of Cloth (A-POC), in which a continuous length of fabric (wool, cotton, or down) is produced by a computer and extruded by a machine. Ripple’s version is meant to be worn as a jacket, with the seat-aperture openings also functioning as armholes.

Cucoon - When You Most Need It...

Yes, there are certain moments in life when you need to act quickly!
By that I mean not having to think about where you put the item, you are desperately looking for. I suggest using the same place every time to avoid the the unneeded drama in your love life. Not that it is the best piece advise you came upon, but hey, some things seem so obvious we don't really think about them. So anyways, here is a cuckoo, holding your condom for you, always ready to act!
