Crockery by Max Lamb
I’ve been meaning to post about Max Lamb for many months now, If I recall correctly I think I wrote a little piece on him a year ago which was about his collaboration with Dunhill on a chair. It was an interesting project but for some reason or another I’ve never got around to posting up more of
Design Auction, Phillips de Pury
It's really great when you come across a selection of objects that have been designed by some great individuals, not only that but they've been taken professionally by a proper photographer in a nice setting. You'll be surprised how frustrating it can be when the images are too small or of bad quali
Inside the Billy Lloyd Ceramics Studio
Some of you may have seen that we're going to be changing quite a few things here on the site over the next coming weeks. It's fun seeing the development of the site that I started when I was a youngster, even to this day I still can't believe the changes that have been made and it's satisfying to k
Design Pieces from aprogramthatprovides
Yesterday I stumbled across this cool little tumblr site that sells different pieces of design titled 'aprogramthatprovides', most of which are right up my alley. A few that I'll point out straight away include the salt and pepper pots by Enzo Mari that are featured in the 5th image from the top. I
Tekio by Anthony Dickens
We now move our attention towards an English based designer who has undertaken a project influenced by the design style of Japan, so something that feels quite at home in our archive. Given our admiration for the Japanese style we can be rather predictable with our content sometimes, although we hav
Martin Visser, Exhibition of 1960’s Dutch Modernist Furniture at Rocket Gallery
Rocket Gallery in London recently opened an exhibition dedicated to the one and only Martin Visser, the dutch designer who from the late 1950's to early 1970's was Head of Design at ‘t Spectrum. He actually acquired the company during the 1960's which I guess shows just how dedicated he was to the
Short Film from Just So
In terms of commercial reach Adidas are of course one of the largest in the world, so it's natural for us as independents to stray away from the work that they do. That's not being critical, just being honest. Today however at risk of sounding like a hypocrite I wanted to support a project they're u
HAL Chair by Jasper Morrison
Although we generally tend to touch up mid-century style designers here I'm also a big admirer of designers like Jasper Morrison, Naoto Fukasawa, Dieter Rams and other industrial designers who are a bit more current and that are still working today. Naoto for example has a tendency to keep things si
Labour and Wait, New Online Shop
Lately I've been an early bird, waking up at the silly hours of the morning seems like the only way for me to get work done efficiently and in a timely manner. It also extends my day and I'd have it no other way, sometimes I like to call it "the calm before the storm". So in the early hours of this
The Shirt Photographed by Koto Bolofo for Margaret Howell
Routing around this morning I came across a series that I viewed earlier in the month taken by photographer Koto Bolofo for Margaret Howell. At the time I really enjoyed the selection but I didn’t really get a chance to see the full series as such, so when I floated across to the Japanese version
Food Stills by Jason Lowe
Award-winning food and travel photographer Jason Lowe is a genius in my eyes, his works are always something special and really captivate my attention. There's not one photograph that I've seen of his that disappoints, today I thought I would present a little series of food stills which are all in b
Latest Imagery From Tommy Forbes
There are few places I’m never disappointed to visit on the internet as of late and Tommy Forbes page has to be one of them. As a frequent traveller Tommy is never short of something original to shoot, I wanted to showcase the depth of cultural diversity that the photographer has lying in his
