Blueware Vases by Glithero

Short Film on Vyrobeno lesem Collective
When you sit and consider for a moment how many objects, foods and materials around us are synthetic it makes me feel a little uneasy, I don't agree that price of something is where its real value lies.

A Place To Gather Short Film
It's projects and people like this that make my day, those immersed in their own creative bubble, striving to create products that have life and soul, quality and purpose.

Short Film on Rohan Anderson’s Smokehouse

The Long 8 Chair by Natanel Gluska
This project was somewhat of a surprise for me this morning in that I was expecting one style of furniture and in the end I found myself admiring something completely different. Initially I stumbled across Natanel Gluska's freeform chair constructed out of fibreglass, which reminded me a lot of some

Violin Maker Melvin Goldsmith
At lunch we both came across this short video by Crane TV that really captured our imagination, it’s a piece which features violin maker Melvin Goldsmith. Melvin is a very talented man and made his first violin at the age of 12, his Grandfather taught him the ropes and happened to be a decent amat

Film on Danish Potter: Anne Mette Hjortshøj
It's time to put the kettle on and get a little comfortable in your chair as this project, much like the art of pottery, isn't for those in a hurry. If you do have spare time on your hands and an avid interest in seeing individuals create one of a kind objects however then you're in for a real treat
