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
Minka Short Film
This project has been floating around the internet for almost a year, and it is in my eyes the most inspiring film I have seen this year. After much debate I decided that if we hadn't seen this film before, and we have been crawling the internet each day for a number of years now, chances are many o
Short Film on Kutani Choemon Ceramics
We do tend to bombard you all with pottery here, but for this I can’t apologise as I’m about to share some again, as we visit the studio of Kutani Choemon who have been operating in Japan since 1879 would you believe. I found it really incredible that the current owner Kentaro Kamide is the four
Admiring the Work of Architect Lina Bo Bardi
My recent post on designer Joaquim Tenreiro got me a little curious to the other great talents Brazil has produced, so today we are visiting the beautiful home of Brazilian born Italian raised Architect Lina Bardi. The home we're admiring today is actually referred to many as the glass house, howeve
Mobiles by Renilde De Peuter
I’ve been swooning for a few weeks over Renilde de Peuter’s mobiles, you may know this creative through her blog called “At Swim Two Birds” which she named after a Flann O’Brien novel. She’s a real talent and is basically a graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium a
Short Film by Yuki Kokubo
I don't know if anyone else finds this but Friday always seems to be quite a reflective day for me, a chance to look back on the weeks work and reestablish where things are going for the next week ahead. So being Friday I thought I'd bring across a little documentary style film which is quite reflec
The Making of the Series 7 Designed by Arne Jacobsen
This video is extremely old but I was blown away when watching it this morning and it sort of led me onto researching a bit more into Arne Jacobsen and his works, particularly the Syveren (Seven) series chair. This pressure moulded veneer chair seen here is apparently one of the most sold chairs in
House R by Bevk Perovic Architects
I thought we'd move onto something a little larger in scale now, visiting the work of Bevk Perovic Architects and this beautiful home they constructed which has lots of quirky elements that I've not seen used much before. Given it's being highlighted here I think we all know it was always going to h
A Selection of Pottery by Marguerite Wildenhain
I’ve become very much intrigued by the Bauhaus and how it all started, over time this has helped me discover some interesting places on the internet, one of those being a small design and art blogspot that goes by the name of MONDOBLOGO. I found a great article on there which showcased some of the
Furniture by Joaquim Tenreiro
I've always (and I'm showing my age here) recognised Brazil mainly for their sporting achievements, having grown up watching the Rivaldo's and Ronaldinho's of this world with much amazement. It got me thinking this morning that I must research more into the designers that originate from this wonderf
Short Film by Mia Shimabuku
We return to a short film that investigates a little craftsmanship, or perhaps craftswomanship if there’s such a thing, as young filmmaker Mia Shimabuki takes a closer look at the work of glass blower Suzi Perret. American creative Suzi works alongside fellow glass fanatic John Gerletti as they cr
A Selection of Furniture by Bruno Mathsson
I'm positive you'll all agree that we've had some absolutely stunning furniture featured on the blog over the past month, I've had a blast learning about all these different designers and their works. I'm not sure when it will come to an end, but it's really intriguing to find out the history behind
