Ray Kappe: His Home, Influences and Processes
I stumbled into a few pieces of content that revolved around architect Ray Kappe and his work, so it seemed right to capture them in one group and discuss some thoughts across the board. Whilst browsing on the Kappe+DU architecture page I came across their blog section that keeps you up to date with
Contemporary and Modern Objects from Craft Craft
Over the weekend I've had some time to question particular design thoughts that have been playing on my mind, it's not unusual for me to hit a stumbling block every so often where the thoughts become complex and I can't get my mind around certain concepts. One that I've been watching quite closely i

I become like a human magnet. Originally I thought it would be hard to find fo

Stool 01 and Chair 01 by Daphna Laurens

Nakamura Kobo Atelier by TED x Tohoku

My passion revolves around the reduction in design down to its purest form, and this specifi
A Look at Alvar Aalto’s Muuratsalo Experimental House
To finish off the week I thought I'd highlight Alvar Aalto's Muuratsalo Experimental House, a place that's been on my mind for a while now. You may remember me mentioning my project for 2013 was to make a piece of furniture, well before I get to that point I've decided it might be worthwhile drawing
