Furniture and Objects at Frank Landau
Today I thought I'd wake up early to find some inspiration for a recent project that I've decided to take on, this involves both pottery and wood, it should interesting to see what comes out of it. Through general browsing I somehow stumbled across the Frank Landau website which is full of fantastic
Ceramics by Christian Escajadillo
I'm not sure we've covered an individual from Peru before but that's one of reasons I love using the platform we have, each day is a new lesson based upon the research of so many diverse, inspiring individuals. Christian Escajadillo is a ceramist I'd not crossed paths with before but his selection o
Archive Imagery from the Hadeland Glassverk Factory
Putting together yesterday's post on Andrew Geller and getting my hands on the vintage photographs was really exciting for me, it's perhaps my favourite post I've put together here. So whilst I was in the process of compiling this I started thinking to myself, there must be so many archives out ther
Handmade Resin Objects by Dinosaur Designs
This morning I've been admiring these handmade resin objects by Dinosaur Designs based out of Australia. This looks like an interesting material to be working with and I've not seen it really used before, well not to this extreme anyway. I'm intrigued by the unusual texture, it seems pliable but ac
Residential Series from The Andrew Geller Architectural Archive
We like unconventional thinkers here, the ones who think differently, who see possibility and disregard limitation. Mid-century architect Andrew Michael Geller fits snugly into this bracket with his experimental approach to architecture, having helped shape what we perceive mid-century modern archit
Bruno Munari, The Man and his ‘Useless Machines’
If you’re a designer of any sort you’ve probably come across or have even read a book titled ‘Design as Art’, written by Bruno Munari. I purchased this book many years ago now and his thoughts and words have stayed with me, in fact it’s still sitting on my shelf today and I often refer bac
Wire Sculptures by Rodger Stevens
It's great when you come across artists and creatives who're doing something completely different to the trends that are already out there, I'm always intrigued by these new ways of thinking. Over the past year I'm positive that I've become more obsessed with form on the whole and the shape of objec
Short Film on Eames Chair Creation
I'm not going to lie, today has been somewhat of a frustrating uphill battle in the content department, we've found ourselves stockpiled with certain subjects and thin on the ground with others. Thankfully though I came across this great image of Ray Eames creating a selection of chairs that reminde
Ceramic Work by Ann Jansson
It's not easy for me to get blown away by design work anymore, I'm extremely picky with what I like and an object has to have a real story behind it for me to be enticed. I'm sort of bucking that trend today as I don't have much information on this talented artist but I know her name and I'm equippe
Erik Wahlstrom photographs Jockum Nordstrom’s Studio
I thought I'd start the week with a little photography as I've been browsing countless photographers portfolios this weekend, it's always nice to check back and see what everyone's been up to. I came across Swedish photographer Erik Wahlstrom last March thanks to the collaborative project he put tog
Workroom, A Family Project
I found this great little project today that I’ve not come across before titled Workroom that’s run by father and daughter team Rebecca and Douglas Snelling. This concept reminds me of Nikole Herriott who also collaborates with her father Lance, they started a quaint little company a while back
Creekside Residence by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson
It's pretty rare for me to get completely blown away by modern architecture, it's often the likes of Richard Neutra, Philip Johnson, and Frank Lloyd Wright that are the go to for a little architectural inspiration, but this home built only five years back by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson stopped me dead i
